I Need Some Advice
I'm starting to think that something might be wrong with me. Over the past few weeks, I've been dealing with thoughts about depression, nihilism, and, within the last couple of days, suicide. I am so scared of the future, I feel so helpless, I don't see any point in carrying on when the world is just so horrible and dark and devoid of hope. I want to tell people in my life, but I don't want people worrying about or pitying me, and I don't want to be a burden. So I'm turning to online forums for at least some form of advice. What should I do? How should I handle this? And if you think I should tell my parents, how should I go about it? Thank you for your time.

Heavy Hearts

God wrote of eternity

and placed it in our hearts

perfect love that drives out fear

a light within the dark

So enemies of his and ours

distort the truth and fire

shadows formed in silence

twisting heavenly desires

The longing for security

beyond the other side

where all the evil, pain, and tears

are washed in crimson tides

Will always be a part of us

as long as time remains

but, sanctified, each thought we have

yields grace in Jesus’ name

The power over each deceit

a plumbline to his throne

where every lie meets its defeat

until he calls us home
