Hello doctor, I am suicidal. I feel so manipulated and exploited. My parents never listen to what I say and indirectly or directly cause some very unpleasant memories. Maybe I just want to be an ordinary kid, I want to play computer games and stuff, maybe I do not need to do academic stuff all the time, but they will not listen, instead, they push me down to a bottomless hole and they drive me crazy.
Hi. Suicide is not a solution to any problem. There is no problem in the world which does not have any solution. Just we have to see from a different view. Take a break in your life. Think about what you want to do in the future. If you are not interested in the study, leave it but what you want to do to survive in this world, think about it. If you have something fruitful to do except study than talk about it with your parents. Make sure that they believe in your plan. Strictly stay away from any form of recreational drugs or alcohol. Stay away from social media or limit the use of it. Do not live a virtual life, come to the reality of life and the world. If your parents do not listen then someone elder who believe in you and then ask that elder to talk with your parents. Ask your parents what they want from you and why they want it. Talk politely with parents. Do not do any unnecessary argument. It is a very tender age and do not take any decisions in a hurry. Relax and think. Life is very beautiful. Enjoy it.
