So you saw ONE therapist. There may be others who would fit you better. As well, just because you think you were fine several years ago does not mean that you are not in a depression right now. A lot of adolescents experience depression–right around the time they get into college. As a result, their depression is often misdiagnosed as a temporary phenomenon due to the transition from high school to college and the pressure they experience.
It’s okay to come here only to vent if that’s what you want; it just won’t help you get over your suicidal thoughts or help you make friends. But the mere fact that you have entertained suicidal thoughts is a huge red flag for us.
