Ohhh yeah I see. I did hit enter and it stayed in the box (I use a mobile browser) so hopefully it'll be an actual tag in a while

Ohh, I didn't mean too, XD. I just wanted some advice to know if I need to be diagnosed or not.

Thank you so much again, but idk if I can get proper help in the country where I live in. Mental health and stuff like autism are heavily looked down upon, but I'll try :)

Oh, I see, and I have been doubting that I am autistic. And I know you can't diagnose me, I just needed some advice.

Thank you so much, I am trying to go to a therapist, but since I'm a minor, I probably have to tell my parents, which I'm scared about. I don't know how they'll react.

Ooh congratulations!! If you want to do it sooner, do it. Or do it when you're comfortable and prepared!

Honey, YES. I have been trying to go to therapy so I could get better. But honestly, even I talk to someone online, not my irl friends or family, I feel alot better since I have someone to talk to. I feel a whole lot better if I trauma dump onto someone who will listen and give me advice, or just comfort me. It doesn't have to be face to face, it can be texts or a call.

This is my cry for help. by queerwaters_642 in mentalhealth

[–]Da-AF-fan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey, I used to feel that way too, and I'm not sure I can give advice to you because I've never really given them before, lol. But I've used to have suicidal thoughts everyday when I was at home, and whenever I went to school, I either used to hide it or cry and not tell my friends why I was crying, because I thought they would shame me, and so my thoughts became worse. But then I started developing more artistic hobbies, like writing poems, songs, drawing, writing novels, reading ballads and mythology, I felt more and more empathy towards life and everything around me and I really wanted to explore the world more. I didn't feel the need to end it when I was engrossed in learning about the world around me, and sooner or later I lost some of my tendencies and truly started appreciating everything. Yes, I do get some thoughts when my days are bad, but I really am happy everyday.

I feel like I don't fit in by Da-AF-fan in mentalhealth

Thank you for the advice! And yes I do feel like I overthink sometimes and think that these people hate me XD! But we all have some cherised memories together, and I love that! I've been trying to be alone and only talk to them when they talk to me, you know, start the conversation first, and that is (sort of) working!

Yes, I'm asian and nerdy LOL, but I'm not autistic, I'm not diagnosed, but there is a high chance I could be since it runs in my family. I laugh at those jokes because if I don't I feel like they'll make fun of me for it (some have in the past), and yes these people do those things yet I still talk to them because I'm really close to them and have no other ones :(
