Do I have a serious problems, and please don't make fun of me?!


Question: Do I have a serious problems, and please don't make fun of me?
I'm a very depressed person and I think about times where I was happy a lot and it makes me sad. I don't know why but in the summer of 2009 when Michael Jackson died during that time I was seeing a therapist and I was taking these great pills to help my depression so everything seemed so well. I was finally having fun with one of my friends and school was out and my life seemed less stressful that summer. So whenever I think of the fun things around that summer I just start to choke up because I feel stuck with things and the stuff i'm dealing with in my life right now. And I was just looking at all photos from that summer and looking through my old questions on here with Michael Jackson questions and it just made me sad. I know it's kind of hard to understand but I feel sad when I look at Michael Jackson questions from 2 years ago. I attempted suicide because I was getting bullied very badly a couple of months ago. And I feel like my family is falling apart and I just seemed so much closer to people then. And now they moved on from me and decided to leave me behind. It's weird because seeing how people leave a legendary singer behind makes me wonder if people if i'm going to be completely forgotten. And I feel weird for being like this. And it makes me feel worse. But I can't help but feel these feelings that are kind of confusing. Anyways do you think this could be a mental illness?

Hi there,

First let me say that people are jerks, and I'm sorry for all of these not so helpful answers above. I think it is very natural to look back at times that were less stressful/more carefree and reminisce.

When somebody in your life passes away they always live in your heart. I think the people that were close to MJ still remember and think about him everyday. And I'm sure the same would be for the people that are close to you. It would hurt them immensely if something were to happen to you.

Just know that there are always great things ahead. Everyone goes through rough patches (and depression multiplies that), but know that there will be another summer like that one. Maybe not with the same people, but people come and go.

I think this probably has something to do with your depression. Technically, depression is a mental illness, but can be treated. You said that you were in therapy a few years ago, do you ever think of going back? It can really help just having someone to talk to. I think your feelings are completely normal and understandable though. If you ever need to talk, you can always send me an email!

Your not going to be forgotten.... I don't know what to tell you but suicide is not a good option. Even though you feel like people don't care right now they do care.



A SERIOUS mental illness!!!!!!



Please see a doctor or therapist about this. You can always talk to me too.
