Oh man, I can relate to this post. My parents don't believe me either even though I have had literal breakdowns. It sucks. I hope you can eventually get the support you need and deserve... is there any way you can maybe get in contact with a doctor or mental health resource near you? That's what I'm planning to do if they don't listen. Take care friend

Hey UnassumingSpruce,

I understand sometimes parents don't want to believe that their son or daughter are depressed. I'm sorry to hear that is family history of trauma that and other signs that are causing and they aren't listening or reading the gestures. You're allowed to feel depressed. It's okay not to be okay. I understand them saying it's not manly but if your child is depressed they're depressed. They should be supportive than this. I understand why you're so tired and exhausted. I hope you get the help you need. Please take care of yourself and your mental health. I hope this message finds you healthy and safe. ❤️
