I don't know what it is excatly but there are so many times I just hate myself and everything about me. I don't know what is wrong with me. I don't cut or anything, but I have always been one to scratch at scabs I have and make them bleed again. I guess that counts as SI from what I have seen. I don't know. I just know this emotional crap is killing me. I'm finally admitting to myself that something is wrong, that maybe I need help, but I don't know what to do. I can't go see anybody because I don't have the money to pay them. I'm only 18, I only work part time and only when I am at home. I hardly have enough money to get my meds that I'm already on for my PCOS. My parents won't do anything to help me with it either. I don't know what to do...any advice would be great...please somebody help?
I don't know if I can be of much help, but I just wanted you to know that I'm here for you if you need someone to talk to. I'm one who picks at scabs and stuff too, why I don't know...it hurts and I take forever to heal as it is. I've been where you are, emotionally and financially. Hell, I still am! I'll be thinking of ya

Can you apply for some health care benifit? I don't really understand the American health system.
Also try and get anti-depressants, I found them a huge help. I don't take them now, but they got me out of the rut and helped me move on.
If not, try exercise. It might sound glib but its a great help to lift moods and if you try and exercise every day (just a half hour walk) it might start helping.

First of all there are programs that can help you. Call your local SRS office and they can direct you to the proper one. I am sure you would quailfy for a program called Health Wave. Check into it. You need to know that why things might seem tough right now that they will get better. I have been in your shoes. Somedays I want to hurt myself too but it isn't worth it. You have your whole life ahead of you. Some drug companies help ppl who can't afford the drugs. Talk to your doctor about your concerns. They will help as much as they can and may even be able to get you samples until you are on your feet. Don't give up.

I have tried looking into programs for help with health care and stuff but I dont qualify for most things as my parents are helping me to pay for college itself and I am also under their health insurance. They dont help me to pay for the appointments or meds themselves, though, so it still adds up a lot. Because of being under their insurace I am not completely independant though, and their incomes are too high for me to get much help with anything. Their insurance helps out a lot so I can't stop using that, but its still expensive, so thats my issue with that.
