In this stressful and challenging world, depression is a growing problem. It is like an invisible **, quietly eroding people's hearts. Especially for children, their minds are more fragile and more susceptible to depression. Today, as a child who has suffered from depression, I will tell you about my painful experience and how I struggled to survive in the apathy and misunderstanding of my parents.
I was an ordinary kid who used to have a carefree childhood. However, as I grew older, I gradually felt the pressure from my family, school, and society. My parents had high expectations for me, hoping that I would excel and be a bragging rights for them. However, they didn't care about my inner needs, nor did they notice that I was becoming more and more reticent and depressed.
In the shadow of depression, I gradually lost my love and confidence in life. I began to feel endless loneliness and hopelessness, as if I was trapped in a dark corner from which I could not escape. I tried to ask my parents for help, hoping to get their care and support. However, they thought I was just being coquettish, deliberately finding fault, and even reprimanded me with harsh words.
In their indifference and misunderstanding, I felt more and more helpless and hopeless. I felt my heart being slowly torn apart, as if I was about to be dragged into an endless abyss. In this situation, I began to have suicidal thoughts. I feel that this is the only way to get rid of the pain and torment in my heart.
However, in my most desperate moments, a warm light shone into my world. It was a counsellor who accepted me with love and understanding and helped me out of my predicament. With her help, I gradually realized where my problems were and learned how to face and resolve my inner conflicts. I also began to understand that my parents didn't mean to hurt me, they just didn't know how to properly express love and support.
In the process of psychological counseling, I gradually regained my confidence and courage in life. I started trying to communicate with my parents and let them know my inner world. I also learned how to adjust my mindset and face life's challenges positively. In the process, I discovered many beautiful things that I had neglected and regained the joy of life.
Now, I have come out of the shadow of depression and have a sunny mindset again. I am grateful to the counselor for giving me a chance to be born again. At the same time, I also hope that my experience can attract more people's attention, so that more people can understand the harm of depression and learn to care for and understand the depressed patients around them.
Finally, I would like to say to all parents: please care more about your children and don't let their hearts struggle with loneliness and despair. Depression is a disease, and it's not the children's fault. We need love and understanding to help them overcome their illness and regain their courage and confidence in life. Only in this way can we truly become a strong backing for our children, so that they can be full of hope and sunshine on the road to growth.
