Okay. Things are not okay. I don't know what to do any more. Ever since I moved to Seattle I've been in this constant cycle of depression. I feel completely isolated and unhappy. Especially when I am at school. Today I realized that I did not say a single word to anyone in my first two classes and I only did in my third because we had to work in groups. I don't have very many friends. At my old school I had a lot of friends but here I only have a few.
I got in a fight with my parents today cause I was in a bad mood because school sucked and I said that I hate my life and my mom said, "If your life is so horrible then why don't you just kill yourself?!" WTF. Why would she say something like that?! She doesn't realize how what she says effects me and it is so annoying. It makes me feel like even my own parents don't care about me. My mom is the reason I started cutting when I was in 6th grade. My parents found out about my cutting at least once and they never did anything, they said "don't do it." and made empty threats as usual. I don't know what to do. I can't handle all this any more. My life feels so messed up right now and they are oblivious. I. Need. Help.

Well the first step in getting help is recognizing you need it! If you believe your parents won't help you in any way, try talking to someone you trust at school, teacher, counselor, etc and try to get help from them. Sorry thats the only suggestion I have. Hope I helped.

What your parents are doing is completely past the line. You ought to tell a social worker or someone of the sort about what your mom said to you.

School is a horribly lonely place where you never have the satisfaction of being alone.
Parents can control your lives without ever really seeing or understanding you.
Seattle can be a shit city.
Sometimes I get so overwhelmed by the same things. My parents have never been so insensitive though. One thing that has helped me feel more in control is to become more independent, and take my parents out of the equation of my responsibilities. Try communicating with your parents about their investment in your emotional well-being. Your mom would probably appreciate a chance to take back what she said, and explain what made her say such I horrible thing. If this is getting you nowhere, and you still feel like your parents aren't taking you seriously enough, find someone else you can talk to, like a student psychiatrist or councilor.

Well, first of all how long ago did you move to Seattle? And maybe your parents just don't have the best way of showing they care. Maybe they were too scared to do anything about your cutting. Or maybe they trust you enough to know you wouldn't actually do anything fatal. However, if she actually told you to kill yourself, that is a bit over the top. Have you tried sitting down with her and talking this over one on one?
