Thank
you for reaching out today. I am so glad that you did. It sounds like
you are in a great deal of pain and it's hard to see a way out right
now.
Please
know that nothing is worth ending your life over. It sounds like things
are pretty tense at school and home, but things can change. It is
concerning that you are having these issues at school. If you haven't
already, please report this to your school counselor. No one deserves
to be treated that way or excluded. Your school needs to be aware of
the way you are being treated. In the meantime, try to connect with at
least one person at school or outside of school. You need support,
whether it's a school counselor, a teacher, an aunt or uncle, or a
friend.
Parents
can sometimes overreact. Your dad may have been stressed
about something else, or maybe there is something else to explain why he
got so upset. He probably feels bad about it and hopefully you two
will be able to discuss it at some point. Sometimes, it can even help
to apologize, even if you don't feel like you did anything wrong. Your
dad loves you.
It
is very concerning that you are having thoughts of suicide. You have
so much life left to live. Sooner than you realize, you will be on your
own at college or at a job. You won't feel the cliques or the pressure
that you do in high school. Also, you need to know that your life is
precious. Your life has purpose, even if you haven't discovered what
that purpose is. Please reach out to an adult about this. You don't
have to try to go through this alone. Please also make a promise to
yourself that you won't do anything to try to end your life and you will
call us or talk to your parents if you cannot stay safe. Help is
always just a phone call away.
Please keep reaching out; call or email us soon. We are here for you!
Chelsey, Crisis Counselor
