Close Depression - Teen

Got bullied a few years back, it wasn't anything terrible but I always take things way too personally. Wanted to end it all until I discovered how good it was for me to just totally space out and watch DVDs. Now the feelings of complete emptiness seem to take over a lot.

Treatments

Art Somewhat Helpful

Sometimes I'll draw exactly what I see in my mind and when I can see the finished picture I can understand my thoughts slightly more clearly.

Psychotherapy Somewhat Helpful

It all depends on what your councellor's like. I had a great one at first but I couldn't see her as long as I wanted to. She reffered me to someone else who wasn't really much help so I quit going. I'm currently on a waiting list to see another woman who I think might be a little more help.

Support from Friends & Family Somewhat Helpful

My families started acting a little better around me which has made me feel more comfortable at home, but sometimes it all goes back to the beginning and I have to take it all out on me again. I'd say the side effects for me are that they do things for me just because of my condition and I know for a fact if I haddn't told them they wouldn't have done it for me, this may sound good but I get bad feelings of guilt for this which can then lead to 'other' things.

Talking Somewhat Helpful

Depends entirely on who I talk to. My family never seem to want to talk about any of my depression or cutting, and if I talk to friends they don't always understand. Some friends I have have similar problems so it helps to talk to them sometimes.

Writing Too Soon to Tell

Sometimes things are a lot clearer when you write them down, so you can see what options you have to deal with issues. Other times it's not clearer but you still have something written down to turn back to if ever you have other thought about what you wrote.

Close Self-Injury

Been cutting for most of the past 3 years now, and this may sound stupid but for me it's not a bad thing. I like it and don't want to stop. The only thing that annoys me is that I'm running out of hidden spaces to cut coz I have so many scars. Bio Oil doesn't work fast enough and I don't like overlapping scars for some unknown reason...
