I’m an 18 yr old male living w my 3 siblings and my mom (My dad left my freshman year of HS) and for awhile now i haven’t been feeling like myself. For about a year or so I’ve been so hypersensitive to criticism or anything somewhat hurtful my friends say to me. I’ve talked to my girlfriend about this but she’s told me that she “feels” that she needs to act differently around me than what she’s normally like to avoid hurting me. I can tell that she doesn’t have that much fun w me even though she swears she does because of my Oversensitivity. I’ve been trying to ignore stuff and just tell myself that they’re joking (even though sometimes they aren’t) but it only works during the day. During the night I fall into a really deep state of sadness that doesn’t go away until I wake up the next morning. At times I’ve even contemplated suicide. I’m afraid to tell my mother cause she’s already been through enough and I’m also the eldest child also I don’t want to tell my girlfriend cause she’s really not that helpful when it comes to anything that has to do with emotions. Any advice on what I should do cause I’m scared and I want help but I don’t know how to start .
