I'm having a shit start to my week already. It feels like no one cares and whenever I try to reach out I'm just put off. Tried to talk to my teacher but he just reccommended me to my counselor, who is out of office. Tried to talk to a hotline but my text wouldn't go through because my signal was shit. Tried to make a forum on reddit but post gets taken down.

Whenever I feel like this I just hole myself up in the bathroom. In 6th grade I would go to the bathroom in Spanish class to just cry, but it got to the point where the girls would make fun of me for using it often so I stopped going in that class.

Sorry for venting. The question is do you guys have a safe spot you hide in when you feel down? And if so where? Because bathrooms aren't good for me

Where are you that therapists can prescribe? I thought only doctors of medicine/some pharmacists could.

The US. Psychiatrists can Rx. Psychologists cannot. But, they've always a psychiatrist in their back pocket who'll do whatever for a quick buck. If they label themselves "therapist" they're idiots who couldn't even hack a MA.

My experiences have clearly demonstrated that anyone accepting money will inhibit progress or have one forever dependent upon pharmaceuticals. Those that provide the best help never asked me for anything in return.

Same goes for education.
