Alright! Let's get this rant started.
Okay, so I dropped out of school about maybe.. I don't know, a month ago because in all honesty, I just don't want to go. Since I have no reason my parents started thinking I may have a mental problem. Then my parents started noticing things about me that they have never noticed before. Like, I don't talk much, I keep to myself most of the time, I sleep in until noon or 1, and I listen to "Depressing" music. So, Shoopdawoop! Off to the counselor! They are telling me that I am depressed, That I have social anxiety, and that I'm all around mentally unstable. What the hell is this? I don't even know what social anxiety is. So, Being the person I am I straight told the counselor, my mom, and my dad to well.. **** off and that I was fine. So then the counselor tells my mom over the phone that denial is a normal thing and getting mad about it was also normal. So, I go back to the counselor and they continue trying to convince me I have problems for another hour. I seriously am starting to think 60% of people diagnosed with depression have just had it forced into their head that they are and in all reality they're fine, Just a bit down. I'm not saying depression isn't a real disease or anything, just that I doubt a lot of people diagnosed with it actually have it. I mean, With my experience with these professionals, it seems as though they talk to you for an hour or two, costing you 1000 god damn dollars just to tell you that you're depressed and mentally unstable and that you should spend a couple hundred a month on pills to make you better. I think I've found out their plan by the way xD 1.Find Patient. 2.Tell them they're depressed. 3.???? 4.Profit! Nummy! Anyways man, What I really want to say is that if someone says that they're not depressed than just leave them the hell alone. Just because you have a fancy degree from some university doesn't mean you can force someone to believe they're depressed or have another mental disease. /endrant |

agreed dropping out of school is just about the dumbest thing you can do, it may suck *** but it'll keep you outve working at burger king for the rest of your life
and theyre probably saying your depressed because you wont talk to them, seriously psychiatrists go through something like 20 years of school so they can get that job, they know what theyre doing instead of telling this to us tell it to them, then they will help you better than any of us can |

Ha, I know dropping out is dumb. But I don't really care. I have absolutely no credits from my freshman year anyways and I don't wanna be a super senior xD Edit: Wait, I have all my English credits from that year actually.

Could backfire though. ![]() Depression diagnosis procedure is ****ed up, everyone will get diagnosed, no matter what he says or does. As long as you eat normally you aren't going to die. |

I dropped out of high school at 14, then I got my G.E.D. two years later. ;/ Probably the best decision I've ever made.
EDIT: Oh yeah. ;o You're cool, too. |
