"On a different note, my mother just came up to me and we had the following dialog:
mom "when are you going to talk to me"
me "what do you mean"
mom "when are you going to realise that i'll love you no matter what and talk to me about your problems"
me "i don't know what you mean"
"
It sounds like you do have people in your life that do care about you and who arent paid to, im sure that your mother cares and loves you very much otherwise she wouldn't have asked how you were.
Recently in recovering from a bout of depression lasting much of my teenage life ive discovered that having a positive attitude is a great step forward, its not going to work all the time - I still have my lows, but so does everybody else.
Just a thought - and i dont know if you already have one - but you could talk to Myr about getting a blog here so that all the decent people who visit can comment on your day and how you felt at the end of it. I dont know if its true for you, but Ive found that discussing something over with someone can make me see it from a different perspective.
I think the key is talking to people. It was a mantra often repeated in various anti-bullying intiatives at various ages and I didnt much listen to it, but its starting to make sense and I think it applies here. Other people can be really supportive of you. And I mean Real People. Therapists have their time and place but sometimes they may not be what you need (and I am not suggesting that you stop sessions in any way, just that you broaden the number of people you discuss issues with.)
Hmm so theyre my thoughts, I really hope that I can help in some way. If you need to talk to someone then you can send me a private message - I may not always be online at the same time you are because of timezones etc but i'll try to reply ASAP.
