Alright I'll keep this short and simple
So I have a really crappy day about a week ago, and I'm talkin' to this girl about it. It turns out, this girl was suicidal at one point. So she goes to a school counceller and tells her I might be suicidal. So I get called down to talk to her, and she says shes required by law to call my parents and tell them i'm suicidal. Total bullshit, and I'm pissed the whole way thru talkin to this counceller. This is sitcom stuff to me... because now i'm in therapy and my mom just forced me to watch dr. phil.
What the hell can I say to them? I keep telling them, no, i'm not suicidal, but its total bullshit and I have to keep going through this shit.
Seriously, It's bullshit. I'm not suicidal. I wouldn't even call myself depressed. All I am right now is annoyed that I have to go through all this stupid, stupid ****.
What would you do if you were in my position?
I really don't want to have to watch Dr. Phil again.
Hey-what's wrong with Dr. Phil?
Remember that they are all just doing these things because they are worried about you. I would just humor them and be glad that you have people who love and care about you and be careful what you say to your friends in frustration!
there is nothing u can do if ur a minor. u have to do what ur parents and the counselor say. sorry bub. i had the exact same thing happen to me, only i got to go stay at a home for troubled teens for 6 months, that SUCKED! all because some dumb chick told the school counselor that i was suicidal too!
Wow, that sounds like your own personal hell.
hmm, well i think your best bet is to just act like you're fine.....and maybe create a supported argument on how watching Dr. Phil cannot help you emotionally in any way. I don't see any point in trying to convince your mother since she doesn't seem to listen.
Unless maybe you could convince her by speaking calmly and sternly. The more P.O.ed you act the more likely she'll believe you have a problem.
OMG, I had some crap like that happen to me, too!
A couple years ago, my boyfriend and 3 of his friends got in a fatal car accident. Naturally, I was upset and hysterical.
My mom took me to the hospital because I couldn't eat for like a week after that, and after a while when I tried, I would just throw it up. The accident was still fresh and I was still REALLY upset and crying a lot at the hospital.
Next thing I know, 2 big guys come in the room, grab my arms and escort me to an ambulance. There was nothing my mom could do. And trust me, she tried.
They took me to a freakin mental hospital!!! I was like, "omg are you guys serious?!" They were convinced that I was suicidal because of how much I was crying.
Morons.
I had to stay there for 2 days. My mom was SO pissed, but they wouldn't let me out. They even took away my shoe laces so I couldn't kill myself with them! It was complete bull-crap. Everyone that worked there talked to me like I was retarded or something...Jerks
I answered all their questions like they were crazy for asking me in the first place.
ex:
"Do you ever fantasize about killing yourself?"
ME: "WHAAAAAAAAT?! That has to be the weirdest question I've ever been asked.... No. I would never....that's just weird."

Anyway, lesson learned. Never show negative emotion to people with medical authority.
If I were you, I'd talk to the counselor like THEY were crazy for even suggesting that you were suicidal. Laugh at everything they say and be like, "Are you kidding me?"or "Is this some sort of sick/tasteless joke?"
Hope this helps =]
...and **** Dr. Phil
I'd probably keep my mouth shut and prove that you're not suicidal by being normal. Pick your battles
Thats much funnier than my situation.
You seem to be incredibly defensive. Try to have a discussion instead of a confrontation about the issue. It sounds really dumb, and I totally understand that parents are hard to get through to, but you need to tell them that you have to sit down and talk about what the real situation is about.
Your mom is just concerned about you, and she has most likely heard an impartial story. Try to explain the whole thing and help her to understand your side. Just try and chill a little bit.
Good luck!
Oh my god! I know how annoying it is. I have really freaky, morbid, and realistic dreams about people dying and what not. And my friends thought that it would be a good idea to see the school psychologist to see if there is anything I can do to stop the dreams. Well, my school psychologist is an idiot so he referred me to the school nurse. They are now forcing me to join this therapy group.
So for right now I'm just dealing with it. You can always tell them if they don't let you out of therapy you're going to commit suicide. That might work. lol jk. Ok my serious advice: THE MORE YOU CONFESS THE MORE THEY'LL THINK ABOUT LETTING YOU OUT. So just tell them how you feel when somethings bothering you. It's good to get things out anyway.
I totally know where you're coming from. This may be a little weird cause we really don't know eachother but you can talk to me if you need help with anything. =)
Good Luck! =)
