Keeping up appearances

Today, my parents screamed at me for being diagnosed as depressed, because I’m not allowed to be depressed, because me being depressed makes them look like bad parents who couldn’t raise a happy, normal child, so I have to be happy or I’ll be punished. FML

Today, my mother threw a fit because the psychologist she got me suggested I visit a psychiatrist. Apparently, it's my fault because I "choose" to be so "crazy". FML

Today, going to my psychiatrist's appointment for my PTSD and depression, my mother yelled about how useless I am and how I torture her existence with my "abnormalities." She told the doctor how much I've improved and become such a delight at home for her and our family. FML

The root

Today, I got a lecture from my mother about how bad my stress has been, how I have to treat myself better and do something with my life. She still doesn't realize that most of the cause of my stress has been from her berating me about how stressed out I am. FML

Today, I was talking to my professor and explained how depressed and stressed out I am. He called the police to my house because he thought that would help with my suicidal thoughts. My parents don't believe in mental health, and I want to die more. FML

I think you should shut the **** up. Being depressed is an illness. It's a mental disorder. Maybe you should look into facts before you run your dumb mouth off.

If it makes you feel any better, I have clinical depression, acute stress disorder, panic attack disorder, anxiaty disorder, truama induced psycosis that comes and goes, post truamatic stress disorder, and a few other long complicated fancy-sounding things. All they mean to me is I'm not normal and they're gunna drug me up so I can function. =/ you're not alone yo.
