hey 8888, I'm Tayla and I'm 20.

I'm so sorry that you're struggling. I've had mental health issues since I was 12, probably earlier, and I'll be 21 this year. perhaps you're older than me though, but either way that's so sad and no one deserves it.

I'm so sorry that you haven't had support especially from people who are supposed to be professionals, I know exactly how that feels.

I'm not sure what else to say and things to suggest and I feel super bad for that, I'm so sorry. But I do want to try and support you and every one on these forums. they're a safe, moderated place and it's supportive and friendly. even a good place to have a laugh and discuss other things besides mental health. for instance some people are thinking of making a book and movie/TV show club on here?

welcome to these forums anyway. please take care of yourself, I'm thinking of you. I'm so sorry I couldn't be of any more help.

Tayla
