My parents blamed me for having depression

My parents said that I am just lazy and I was finding excuses and that I'm not trying to get better. They said that they look down upon me. They said that they want me to learn from my mistakes (sleeping in daytime and having no income).

    Hi @Kate_20

    I'm so sorry your parents aren't understanding of the struggles you are facing with depression. It might be a good idea to ask them to educate themselves, or you could try and educate them about depression. Only do this if you feel comfortable.

    We're all here for you <3

    @daisyella12 Thanks. They don't want to educate themselves. They asked me to educate them but I lack energy.
