It sounds like you are on the right track. School counselors don't always understand why students say what they do, but getting a psych eval is a HUGE step forward. The people who do this have much more training than school people.

You are not a burden, but I can understand the feeling; I think that all of us here on the depression boards feel like that from time to time.

if your age is right, then thats not to far off from normal. its a stressful time, and a lot of people talk without really meaning it. first love, first job and college, etc. a lot of emotions and decisions will probably change depending on your environment and options. youre just testing limits and venting. be careful what you say in todays society, as not everyone is realistic and may take it as something more drastic. talking to a counselor is always good. just hope you dont think your problems are what make you who you are.
