Re: How did your parents react-when you told them about your Depression? - August 15th 2014, 11:49 PM

My dad found out through my ex. He got a phone call saying that I was very depressed and self-harming. When he got home from work that day, he put me in a car and brought me to an intake center to be evaluated. He was constantly saying that he was doing it for my own good, and that he wanted to get me help. Ever since, he's been supportive and a very great listening ear for me to talk to. My mom, on the other hand, just doesn't get it.

I think it's worth telling your parents. You deserve to get help if you need it.
