Answers:
It's fine for you to feel this way, they just care about you!.

I know how you feel!. A few months ago, before I started taking medication, my depression was really bad!. I had self harmed in the past and started doing it again out of anger at myself!. I attempted suicide by overdosing and ended up in hospital!. After that, I promised my parents I wouldn't do anything like that again!. About two months later, I deliberately took more tablets than I should have done but thankfully I was fine!. My parents found out and locked all of the medicine cupboards and watched me take my tablets whenever I had to!.

I wasn't allowed to go out alone because my parents were scared I would do something!. I wasn't even allowed to take my 2-year-old sister out because I had been having thoughts like jumping off a bridge with her!. I wasn't allowed to speak to, or go out with, certain friends because in the past there had been an incident when I went out with them and got drunk - ending up in hospital with alcohol poisoning!.

At first I thought I was going to go mad!. I felt lonely, isolated and upset for what I'd done to get things this way!. But I realised that all it meant was my family love me so much, to go this far to protect me!. And I realised that with such a loving family I can only get better!. So I accepted what my 'rules' were and spent more time with my family and it turned out that we just became more close!. After a while, I earned back my parents' trust and after starting medication they saw that I was improving!.

I think your parents just love you too much to see you get hurt!. Soon you'll be seeing a psychiatrist and hopefully on your way to getting much better!. Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I think that your family loves you and you shouldnt feel as isolated as you do!. At least you have your family!. I also think that they should try taking you out so you dont have to feel so locked up!. Even if yall go to the movies or something it would be helpful for you just to get out!. I think they are trying to do the best they can!.
Also, its not wrong for you to feel isolated!. You can't help how you feel!. Just take it one day at a time!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Your parents have cut you off from certain people!.
It is no wonder you are feeling so isolated!. If you do go into the hospital, they will stabilize you!. Perhaps a change in medication can help!. After you come out of the hospital, you can start on a new path!.
You can think about making new friends!. Please do what you need to do so you can begin to feel better!. Good Luck and hang in there!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

sounds like they are just worried about you
if your on pills
an urgent case
and could be sent to a ward they have every right to be worried
my cousin was the same way
and we tried to give her some freedom and then she killed herself a few weeks ago
so maybe they do have a right doing this if you look at it from their point of view
because now we wish we did this to my cousin!.
think about it!.

feeling isolated is not a case of being right or wrong - theres no such thing as a wrong feeling

but if youre asking is it right that someone who psychiatrists think is an urgent case should be watched, then id have to say yes it is right, cos im sure nobody would want you to harm yourselfWww@Answer-Health@Com

this is actually a good thing as it means you have some connection with the world , your feelings of despair will not last, I really hope that you get your treatment soon, take care xWww@Answer-Health@Com
