      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi&amp;nbsp;imsohungry,&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;A very warm welcome to the Beyond Blue Forums. We're really sorry to hear how much you've been going through - it truly is a lot. It makes complete sense that things would feel overwhelming at times. Please know this is a safe and supportive space where you can share what’s happening for you, free from judgment.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;We’re especially sorry to hear that you’ve been made fun of in the past. No one deserves to be treated that way, especially when they’re struggling. Reaching out here was a really brave and important step.&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;It sounds like you’ve been feeling let down by a lot of people in your life, and that’s incredibly tough. Is there anyone you do feel safe with, even just a little? You shouldn’t have to carry all of this alone.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;We’ve reached out to you privately, but also wanted to share a few options for support that might be helpful:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;School wellbeing team: If you're at school, chatting with a trusted teacher or wellbeing staff member can be a good way to make sure someone knows what’s going on for you.&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;Talk to a counsellor:
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;&lt;A href="https://headspace.org.au/online-and-phone-support/connect-with-us/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Headspace&lt;/A&gt;: You can join group chats or speak with a professional online or by phone at 1800 650 890.&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;Beyond Blue: Our counsellors are available 24/7 on 1300 22 4636 or via &lt;A href="https://www.beyondblue.org.au/get-support/talk-to-a-counsellor" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;webchat&lt;/A&gt;.&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;Create a safety plan: ReachOut has a helpful guide for making a safety plan. This can be useful when you're having thoughts of self-harm or suicide. You can find it here: &lt;A href="https://au.reachout.com/mental-health-issues/suicide/how-to-make-a-safety-plan" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;ReachOut Safety Plan&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;In an emergency: If you ever feel unsafe or need immediate help, please call 000.&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;P&gt;When things feel overwhelming, is there anything that helps take the edge off, even just a little? Here are some distraction ideas that others have found helpful when dealing with self-harm urges: &lt;A href="https://au.reachout.com/challenges-and-coping/self-harm/self-help-for-self-harm" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;&amp;nbsp;Self-Help&lt;/A&gt; for self-harm&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Reaching out for support can feel scary, but it’s such an important step toward healing. None of this is your fault, and you absolutely deserve support and care.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Thank you again for posting. We’re here for you, and we want you to know that you matter and you’re always welcome here.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Take good care of yourself today &lt;span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":blue_heart:"&gt;💙&lt;/span&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Kind regards&lt;BR /&gt;Sophie M&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hey there! Welcome to the forums here.&amp;nbsp;I can feel how heavy this has been for you, and I want to stop for a moment on that. You’ve been dealing with pain from your parents, the bullying, being laughed at when you were already hurting, etc. That’s a lot for anyone, especially at 14. No wonder you feel worn down and exhausted.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Sophie_M said pretty much anything I could have said. I just want to add that you are worth it. And I'm listening ... (i you want to chat.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
