Such a charming, heartwarming tale.
Yes.
im still stuck what to do, i cant ring no one as i have no credit/money and the payphones broken so the freephone ones are out of ther question. i cant use our house phone as 1-mam would hear (she never goes out) 2-not allowed to use it
It would be reallyt good if you could talk to someone about this, and there is a helpline you can call for free from any mobile phone. It's called Get Connected and the number is 0800 808 4994. They'll talk you through your problem and then connect you to the help you need the most, and it's all free. But you do need to be aware that it's only available between 11am and 11pm.
Please call them, you really should talk this over,

Just wanted to pop in and say that I'm sorry to hear/read what your mom did. I know I would be severly pissed if anyone did that with my meds because I know that I can not go without my anti-depressant and anti-anxiety medications or I go nuts because I had gone over two weeks before without taking mine because I was almost out of my meds and couldn't afford to get any at that time.
Once again, I'm sorry to hear what happened and I hope that you can get some more, some where, sometime soon. Please just hang in there.
i can't believe she did this to me. shows she doesnt care. what kinda of mother would do this to there own son. Well i now disown her
I think whichever doc decided to medicate rather than sorting out some councilling sessions for what sounds like his whole family was probably having a lazy day.
My advice to you rude would be to learn how to cope without them.
Sometimes you need anti depressents so that you can put all of your attention into taking care of your problems and sorting out whats bothering you. Which it sounds like hes doing by writing. I was on anti depressents, they put me on prozac when i felt i was too young to be on it but i took it and it gave me the ability to work through my problems so that i could come off it fine. If you feel so depressed, you cant think straight and that means your problems wont go away.
Maybe being on them is right for him.
Would going "cold turkey" on antidepressants not have significant side effects?
but others are like naussia, bleeding, vomiting, headache and migraines ect
He's not had them that long though. And tbh if he's addicted already then there's a bigger problem.

you were moaning days ago they wernt working yet because it takes 6 weeks to get into your system,the chances of serious withdrawal symprtoms after so little time on them is slim.Sitting moping about worrying that the pills are gone wont get you anywhere.
Try getting up and getting motivated go out and do stuff get some more social interaction in real life,the more you stress about it the worse you will get.
If you cant ring helplines or see your doctor go to a school nurse there's always one somewhere.
If you focus your attention elsewhere from cutting and being depressed you wont feel it as much.And when you have been on anti depressants for a long time you will feel shit when you come off them because your body has become dependant on them but while you were on them you should of been helping yourself and be able to support yourself once your taken off them.
As ever:p
ur dead right. it was what i was finkin, and i thought if i said it, people would go raa at me. i suppose i wouldnt have sed it as nicely though.but its dead true.
What teh hell? That's exactly what I said and you moaned saying no no no.
now now misteh
im afraid i have to agree, even though i'd had repeated suicide attempts/alcohol problems etc they still refused to put me on prozac purely cos of age, which is the same as yours, they told me to see a councillor and i refused and they still refused the meds, not that i wanted them. in the end i told them i'd sort it out myself and look
happy zoe
as for ya ma, that was mean. i think you need to sit down and have a proper chat with her until she understands what you're going through
sorry i couldnt be off more help, hope it all works out for ya
Im not going to quit taking my medication just because my mam dont like it, i tried to reason with her so FUCK HER im not having her drag me down..
thank everyone
rockerchick like the advice but can i point out one ickle error (not moaning)
takes 4weeks to get into system fully but have a fe effects after 2. i been on them for 6-7 weeks so i started getting the benifits out of them. lovely advice and i go out as much as i can but its gonna be hard layed up in bed for 4-5weeks
Probably because...
God do you ever stop moaning.
If your so depressed, isnt it better to have the support of your family, instead of FUCK HER.
hahaha true.
