Hi. i am new to the board and have read some posts. Yall are so amazing, and such strong people.

I am in dire need to vent! So sorry if i sound like i am rambling, its just i really have noone to talk to. My parents are going through a divorce. i haven't talked to my dad since Easter. Its hard because my parents had the typical marriage- two kids, a dog, in a small town. they barely fought (that my brother and i knew of). My dad was always there for us- went to dance recitals, coached our sports teams, went to graduations. My mom says he suffers from bipolar disorder and now since he's left, shes taking antidepressants. I fear i am "stuck in the loop" I can't really talk to her because she has her own issues she's going with now, and i guess i think she doesn't really want to hear my problems.
I have felt very down recently. (Usually before my period i'll get very irritable and down) but for the past month or so i have been soooo moody, irritable and mopy.
My boyfriend and i have been fighting so much lately. I dont feel like doing ANYTHING. All i want to do and have been doing is crying. I just want to lock myself in my room, in the dark, pull the covers over my head and cry...all day, all week!!
I dont know whether or not i should go talk to someone, i really dont like psychiatrists/counselors. I dont enjoy talking to someone i dont really know, ya know?

Thanks!!
Goodnight!!!!

Welcome to the board,


I went through what your mother is going through and i know how hard it can be to focus on someone else at that time.

thank you so much. I am 20 years old. My mom has told me many times that if i need to talk to someone, i could talk to her psychiatrist. Still debating on it.

Thank you for the insight
