I am extremely frustrated
I do not believe that suicide is an option for me #1 for religious reasons and #2 because I do not want my family to suffer.
I suffer from chroninc depression and I have absolutely no interest in this life. My t is the only person who knows the day to day pain I live with. I know this is gonna sound wierd but because my t knows that I haven't and won't attempt suicide, I don't think my t understands the pain I am in. That frustration really adds to my depression.
To outward seeming I am functioning really well (school, work, friends, etc.) but I really need my t to understand the depths of the pain I am in, because I only share my pain in therapy.
Any thoughts....?

<<< Imagine, what we don't know, that we don't know, and we can't even guess about, is almost everything, so how much do we have to learn about life to make a difference in our futures? How much time do we have for this learning venture? Oh! The rest of our lives! That's right! WOW! When we don't buy into other people's BS, do we have time to do our own stuff instead??? Yep! WOW!!! If I don't realy know who I am, how can I be sure that I am worthless? Ya'mean if I stop obsessing on me, me, me, folks might like me, much more than I let them??? Perhaps! WOW! Since I never knew anyone who actively loved another person in front of me, I don't mean make-love, how can I know the difference between love and mere approval??? I can't??? WOW! I just learned something important!!!
