I have recently lost a close friend to suicide and it was such a overwhelming and upsetting time for me,i went to his funeral the other day and i couldn't cry,i just felt numb.

Before he died i was also having trouble at college due to stress and being behind on coursework and it resulted in me having at least 3 panic attacks a week and having 3 days off college to calm down and catch up on my sleep.

I have regular meetings with my tutor to tell him how im feeling and i asked him to email my parents about it as i was too scared to tell them myself so he emailed them and i showed my dad the email and all he said was its not possible for someone as young as you to have depression.

It really made me angry,i feel like i made 100 steps forwards and 500 steps back.
