start again or give up

[CryingForPie]

i'm going into university tomorrow. i've been given the chance to retake my final year; i'd have to pay fees, and graduate next summer, but i could do it.

i don't know how to tell anyone i'm suicidal. i'm scared something will happen if i admit how much i've been struggling, or planning on dying.

i'm too scared of the backlash from my parents when they find out i have to retake.

i'm sorry i've posted about this so much, but it's the only thing i think about anymore. my siblings have started to notice i get sad for no reason. they think i have nothing to worry about, but i do.

how do you tell someone about wanting to die without a massive overreaction?

I think you have to lie and say you're just feeling depressed without saying anything about being suicidal.

I think it's generally very good to be truthful, but if your choice is between telling a lie or saying nothing, telling a lie is better.
