How do I tell my parents?
Hiya All
I was recently speaking to a very close friend the other day at weekend, as lately I have been getting thoughts and feelings of wanting to sleep for very long periods. I just want to escape daily life for a long while. I cannot cope with any rubbish and bs.
How can I tell my parents that I am feeling this way without upsetting them or thinking I am doing it for attention etc?

Have you ever confused a dream with life? Or stolen something when you have the cash? Have you ever been blue? Or thought your train moving while sitting still? Maybe I was just crazy. Maybe it was the 60's. Or maybe I was just a girl... interrupted.
I know what it's like to want to die. How it hurts to smile. How you try to fit in but you can't. How you hurt yourself on the outside to try to kill the thing on the inside. I tried groups, didn't work out just made my depression a lot worse.

What is the purpose of sharing it with your parents?
Maybe base your approach more on what effect you want to achieve rather than on what to say.

I want them to know how I truly feel and seek some assistance from mental health services.

Maybe just tell them that you are struggling with your mental health and need support accessing help?

Do you want to tell us a bit more about what is making it difficult?
It is harder for us to support you if we have no idea what you mean.

Just coping in daily life and constantly being let down by a lot of people in my life andi have a lot of conflicts going inside my head about what I should do about certain things and it's constantly on my mind. I have even tried the "distractions" however they just delay it and are unfulfilling and don't give me any pleasure, joy or enjoyment or feeling have that i have accomplished something. Even studying is just pointless activity that I do when i feel i up to it

Maybe it would be easier to write them a letter. IT would give you space to explain everything in a calm way and not say the wrong thing or stumble over words as you may do speaking in person.
I often write letters if I have something to say. I find it easier to bring up the topic that way and allow the person reading it to think about it for a little while before giving a response.
Maybe give it a try.

Hey
That is what I am thinking, so today whilst I have free time I am going to settle and get writing.
