I am absolutely depressed here. I've talked to a counselor who says that I have had some extremely stressful events take place before college and that I am dealing with a lot. I have no emotional support from my parents. They literally said "if you feel suicidal, call me. take care." That really hurts. I don't know myself anymore. I have incredible mood swings and thoughts of suicide and hopelessness that I can't recover from well.

I want to leave school really badly. My parents refuse to let me go to another school even though in my heart I know that's what I need. I am even thinking of things like living with my bf for a while or something. I need to retain my sanity, and I'm on my own I guess. Help me please.
 
Is this your freshman year?
Does your bf have his own place?
If you live with him can you go to a local community college and continue your education at a pace comfortable to you?

If you're unhappy to the point of suicidal, and you've not really felt this before, I say take a chance on change and see what you can do. However, make sure you think through any decision you make. How will you buy food, what other bills will you have, what jobs have/will you do if you life with your bf? If you have concrete answers to those questions, as well as a community college in the area you can go to, you should seriously consider that as an option.

You will most certainly want to finish out the semester you are currently involved in though. Just tell yourself it is for a little bit longer, and focus on your plan for when the semester ends. This will allow you to distract your mind as well as plan for something you are looking forward to. Who knows, in the mean time you may end up readjusting to school and deciding to stay.

Just don't allow yourself to feel helpless. If you take a moment to put your mind to it, as hard as it may be sometimes, you can find a solution. Good luck!
