Do I need help?

0

I’ve been losing sleep often, and it’s been causing me to be easily irritated. I’ve been getting into fights with my family members and friends, and I’m becoming more and more isolated by the hour. My sisters won’t talk to me, and my parents are rarely home, and when they are, they’re still busy. I know I shouldn’t cut, and I’ve been trying to busy myself with various things, but it’s not helping. I thought about suicide often these recent months, but I never did.

Think about how you typically spend your day. Do you have any hobbies or responsibilities? Sometimes one thing humans crave more than money and love is purpose. Everyone likes to feel like they are worth something; that they have a purpose everyday. If you aren't doing much with your time other than being alone, then do your best to pull yourself up long enough to seek out new things. A summer job? volunteer work? travel somewhere away from home for a while.

Sometimes even just going to school or work isn't enough though. You get home and you still have just enough idol time to let your thoughts sink within you to the point of drowning yourself in sorrow or self-pity. This is dangerous because unlike getting over the perspective of others, its can be very difficult to refuse your own perspective weighing on yourself. But you must try. Find something to occupy your time with other thoughts and activities.
