I need advice. So my best friend went to the hospital last night because he was really really bad (he struggles with depression and anxiety), and now he wants to take me on Saturday, because that's my 16th birthday, and once you're 16 your parents have no access to your medical records (idk if that's just in Canada, might be different in other countries). The thing is, I'm terrified of going, I've always told myself I wouldn't go on Anti-depressants because I don't want to become dependant on them, I wanna get better on my own, and I'm scared of what my parents would do, how they'd react if they found out. My dad grounded me on Monday, said I'm not allowed to go to my youth group, can't go on the Mexico mission trip I have already paid for with my church, and banned me from seeing my best friend because I had a really bad panic attack, and my dad doesn't believe in that stuff. I was shaking and sobbing and rocking back and forth and he just kept telling my mom all this shit like it looked like demon possession to him, and I should get ahold of myself, and I was being rebellious because I wouldn't stop. He won't let me go to Mexico because of that, and also the fact that if I had a panic attack in Mexico they'd bring me to the hosptal, and he thinks that's stupid and he doesn't believe in mental health, he says it's all demonic and bc I suffer from anxiety and depression I'm not a Christian and all this shit. He won't let me see my best friend because he says my panic attack (which was caused by him yelling at me for absolutely no reason at all, by the way) was 'learned behaviour' and that I was faking everything. So now my friend wants me to go to the hospital and I don't know what to do, but like, I need help, and my parents are crazy and yeah, I'm moving in with my older sister this summer, but I don't know how to handle this, it just keeps getting worse and worse everyday, and I've been on the verge of suicide so much, I don't know. Just putting this out there.
