I haven’t been diagnosed with depression but I’m almost certain I have it. It’s the worst it’s ever been right now. I’m to the point where I’m making plans to take my life and I can’t get better on my own. I haven’t showered, brushed my teeth, cleaned, done any homework, or gotten out of bed in days. I barely eat either. Ive tried talking to my mom about it but she doesn’t believe me, saying it’s just because of this or that and I just need to go to bed. I’ve been calling therapists and psychiatrists that take my insurance for the past week but not one of them have answered the phone. I genuinely don’t think I can hold on anymore and I feel like all of my efforts to get better are pointless. I need help but going to the hospital seems so scary and I’d miss out on a lot of school and work that I’m under a lot of pressure to do well in. At what point do I go to the hospital or ER or something?
