Reads-"Depression isn't A Fad. Hug your child."::Note::I'd like to dedicate this stencil to Bethany (Model of "Inhale"). May God watch over you and may you know that there are people here that love you. I'd hate to see you back where you were last year. This one's for you girly.::/Note::

^_^ I plan on later when painted to spray the heart and the last line in pink. Thought it was a rather nice message.

Mom thinks I'm joking around when I tell her I wanted to kill myself. She refuses to believe I'm depressed...

Depression isn't just a phase
Cutting isn't a popular trend
Suicide isn't a cowards escape
Anorexia isn't being slutty
For those who can't take depression seriously, grow the fuck up.

Great piece!!!
My parent always think I'm just an attention seeker. My mum always says "oh god, your this generation of kids is really terrible, they are all so ungreatful. Maybe if you worked and wasnt so lazy you wouldnt be depressed." Once when I told her I have to go revise she even said "but people with depression dont revise" in a really mocking voice. My dad isnt that bad, he just doesnt know what to do, he's depressed himself.

I am depressed. My parents never hug me, and never had.
If they where, I would've done it first.

I would totally have hugged little you to bits. They didn't hug you, but not because you didn't deserve to be hugged. Every little kid

No joke, when I read this, I busted out in tears. I wish my family understood that my sadness and emptiness is not my fault

I hate it when my parents do this type of stuff. I tell my father "I don't feel so good" (and by that, I mean emotionally), and he flips out. He tells me that in his psychology class, they said that children will often say "I don't feel good" to get attention. He told me that it wasn't going to work and to go away. My mother doesn't exactly listen either.
Does anyone know why parents are like this???

I wish that was enough.
My parents refuse to believe I'm depressed. They say I have no reason to be, because they buy me everything. Telling someone they have no right to be depressed because someone else might have it worse is like telling someone not to be happy because someone else might have it better. My family ignores the obvious signs that I'm depressed, I never leave my room, I barely eat, I never want to do anything. They make me feel terrible by yelling at me for being lazy. I've tried to tell them the truth, my school guidance counselor tried to tell them, now I'm being pulled out of public school because my mom doesn't want me near that "guidance counselor bitch" My parents are the worst thing about my life.

All the time. They found and read my diary. I'm now being punished for being suicidal.

my dad would say that I have nothing to be depressed about if I was depressed.

I can so relate to this =_=
I am better though. So it's all good
Still hurts the fact that I confronted my mom and confessed I had weird urges to hurt myself or whenever I was bullied by nearly all my class or when my sister was having issues and sometimes taking it on me. And all she did was scold me for trying to mimic people online. And the other times when she basically told to be quiet and leave her alone...and then my dad would just tell me to tell my mom.
And she still has a hard time believing me when I randomly remembered the times and talked to her about it...of course she didn't know of my attempts to take my life. But then she'd probably scold me again...
Now that I think about it. It's funny how they ignored how much I changed from being a child who loved to make friends and talk with everyone to someone who'd rather stay in her room all day and get pissy if you even open my door and only had a small handful of friends she ended up losing within a year or so :I
Man, I hope I remember not to do this with my own kids if I have any.

Wow, you hit the nail right on the head there my friend! I teach preschool and I see so many parents that I just want to yell at. Get off your phone and talk to your child! Hug them! Tell them you are happy to see them! Ask me about their day.... care!

I totally agree. People are always saying that it will pass and it's just a phase, but for the people who are fighting depression it is the here and now... Very good
