How do I get my parents to send me to counselling for depression?

I would tell them what you have done and that you realize that you need help and fast. I think that when you do tell them about cutting yourself they will really see that you need help.

Or…

Tell them you have wanted to cut your self so many times when your depressed and not tell them that you actually did…

the right thing to do is to tell them..so do that…and even if they pay no attention find a counsleer 4urself,go to the psycartist and charge him/her from your parents credit card…

talk to a school counclar and let them help you there are many programs that they should be able to get you set up with.

you should really sit them down one night when they are in a good mood, and juss tell them exactly how you are feeling, and maybe yu should mention that yu are cutting yourself, because if they know that, and they love yu like a parent should love yu, then they will notice that yu really need help from someone yu dont know, someone that yu can talk to, and if they still dont get it, then sit down and think about what is making yu depressedd, and once yu figure that out then it will be easier to fix your problems. maybe a really good friend would talk to yu??

You might have to tell them. If you are serious about conseling then you need to tell your parents EVERYTHING. Or, you can go and talk to your family doctor and see if maybe there is something that they can do. Also, if you have a school couciler then you should talk to them. I wish you luck, and if you ever need someone to talk to I am here. I’ve been through this with my best friend. She was 14 when she started cutting, and 19 when she finally stopped for good.

I’m sure if you told them that you were cutting yourself ,they would definantly do something about it. It’s not unusual for teenagers to go through some depression, or uncertainty about themselves, I know I went through it from time to time. You are really in need of some counseling though. So either be honest with them and show and tell or at least tell a school counselor, because that is not a healthy habit to have.
