Just leave your opinion or advice please, what you would do in such a situation, what you think in general, or even call me stupid for being so easily influenced, unstable, and not having my mind together, ever. Anything is appreciated... *I am 22 and barely know about what I am interested in...

Hello :-) I will try to keep it moderately short. There is this thing that I never talk about with anyone. My therapist doesn't know (yet), and I'm not sure if I'll ever be able to tell my psychiatrist either (who is a man, and I literally cannot). Two or three friends know or suspect the...

I finally graduated college yesterday and I felt like I had no one to celebrate with! None of my classmates even took a picture with me sigh and I looked good too.

My junior year (an important year for college applications) I transferred to a really selective private college prep academy and my final year grades made me want to commit suicide. Everytime I happened to think about those grades I have the overwhelming feeling of wanting to kill myself. All...

Hi guys. This is my first thread and post on this site. I hope you guys can help me. I don't want to run away from my problems anymore or let my mind go to that scary place where some sick voice starts convincing me that suicide is an answer. I want to reach out. When I was 11 years old, I came...

A TA emailed me to tell me that this Friday is my last chance to make up any missing PA quizzes or complete my lab 5. This shows me that I'm not just another number at university.
