Oh god, I can't tell you how much school stresses me out. Like, university had me go through my own little mental break down that almost left me dead, but instead I ended up in China. Then when I came back, I was fine when I was doing well, but then when the pressure started to pile on, I started hurting myself. I hope you start feeling better! *hugs*

And yeah, it gets me when people push you when you just want to be alone, or make it about them. The thing that a lot of people don't understand is, that with depression, you can't just choose to turn it off. It's not like if you try harder it'll go away, in fact, that's likely to make it *worse*. Sometimes you just need a day or two of sleeping a lot, and doing things on your own.
