Can’t tell anyone

[I_feel_like_soggy_bread]

I feel numb nearly all the time or as if I’m not enough I’m never enough and I can never to anything. I know I should tell someone but because of my age they’ll write it off as “teenage moodiness” or “hormones”they didn’t take me seriously when I came out either, they just acted nice but never did anything when I brought it up. I know that feeling like this so often is bad, I know my lifestyle (oversleeping, not eating well, not socialising or doing exercise) is bad but I can’t change it not without help at least, but I know they won’t do anything if I tell them, I’m stagnating like a packet of crisps on a roof.

Hi soggy, welcome

Yep, a common occurance. Teenagers tend to mature faster than parents can adjust so the teen is struggling to be treated with the respect of their own maturity.

others will hopefully comment futher here.

Please consider posting in our LGBTIQ section for coming out discussion.

Finally, ask if you can attend an appointment with your GP.

And if you dont mind telling us, how old are you? This is important to our replies.

Hi I_feel_like_soggy_bread,

Firstly, welcome to the forums. I am sorry to read how you are currently feeling.

When you refer to they, who are you talking about specifically? Feeling numb all the time could be a sign of a mental health issue, have you ever spoken to your doctor about how you are feeling? It sounds like you have been through a lot and it is great that you want help. If want to go into a little more detail then I can try to offer you more suited advice.

My best for you,

Jay
