I've had a hard couple of months and I want to die, I've tried so hard not to think about stuff like this but I just can't. My friends barely talk to me, schools starting and I'm getting so stressed. There is a person that I dont want to see but I have to, i really don't know what to do. I got this website from a crisis textline,Somone help me please.

Welcome to Daily Strength. You need to tell your parents that you have something important to talk to them about. Tell them how you have been feeling and that you want to die so they can get you some professional help. They should contact a psychiatrist who can evaluate and make a diagnosis. The doctor can refer you to a therapist or counselor.

Hi there, sorry that you are going through so much right now. What could be some of the stuff that you find it hard not to think about? Sometimes when we are overwhelmed by too many issues that trigger us emotionally, it can affect how to see our situation.

Do you have a counsellor in school?? Can you approach them to have a chat with them and see if they can help?? Hope this helps. Be well and take care. God bless!

I feel uncomfortable talking about stuff like that to adults because I feel like they won't believe me.
