    Wow! I have been where you are and unfortunately my darkness had consumed quite a good bit of my life, I am now 40 and have to say that I have only not lived in the hell of my own darkness for a few years now. A real turning point for me though was when I started taking omega 3 fatty acids/fish oil. It is a suplement that can be purchased over the counter at Walmart, or any drug store in the vitamin section. I was a cutter, I always thought about it, cutting, always carried razor blades with me, not so I could cut but just for the security they gave me just knowing they were right there. I was always thinking about the razors, where they were, if I had easy access to them, etc, etc. It was pretty bad, but after a few months of taking the fish oil, I noticed that although I still thought about the razors, my mind didn't linger on the thoughts like it had before and eventually, I stopped having the thoughts all together. I am not taking them any more, but I am finally alive, my darkness held me back in my life so much, I am finally going to college, I am finally happy.

    I was watching good morning america and they were doing a special on the fish oil and how studies had shown that people that in areas where fish was the major food source had lower cases of depression. Well at my age I was desperate to try anything to find relief from my darkness, but I am really happy to say that it did help me and you are so young, I would hate for you to live as much of your life as I did in utter and complete misery. At least try it, give it about three months, try to mentally notice any changes in your thoughts and thought processes. I say three months cuz my mom says it takes three months before you feel the effects of taking vitamins and supplements, and with my own experience, that was pretty accurate.

    Good luck to you....
