Will my parents be able to see online if I text a crisis line?

@TearDropsOfLove: I'm currently texting them.

@fluteacorn: Good do that. They will keep what you talk about confidential too. I have been in your situation before.

@TearDropsOfLove: My parents said not to text anyone, that's why I was terrified.

@fluteacorn: In this case it is ok. When you need help it is always ok to contact a help line, a policeman or someone at the school. I think your parents would agree with me.

@TearDropsOfLove: I dont think they would. They both have some issues.

@fluteacorn: Then you will have to do what is needed to take care of yourself. You are a very wise young woman. I think you know that it is ok to reach out for help when you need it. The helpline is a very wise move to make on your part. They will give you advise on how to handle what you are going through.

@TearDropsOfLove: I don't really deserve anyone to want to take care of me... Myself included.

@fluteacorn: Yes you do deserve to be cared for. One day you will see that. I used to feel the same way. My problem was I had been raped and it made me hate myself. In later life I learned that rape was not my fault. I don't know what you have gone though but I think it is something just as painful.

@TearDropsOfLove: I probably shouldn't be depressed about anything.

@fluteacorn: It is ok to be depressed. It is not your fault.

@TearDropsOfLove: How is it not my fault?

@fluteacorn: You will see as you grow older. For now just reach out and get the help you need. It is ok to get help.
