Never, too scared of the consequences of seeking help.

It's just not worth it, no matter what anyone says. If you get it and they force you to live, they're just gonna make your life hell anyways.

I've tried both therapy and medication, It seems sort of ineffective for me. Also very hesitant to be completely honest with my therapist. It feels like they just give me some generic advice out of a brochure and then charge me an arm and a leg.
