I am a 18 year old female, and i suffer from bad anxiety and a lil bit of depression.

i have thoughts about killing myself and sometimes some of my family. Manly my step dad and brother, maybe because i hate them. i would never do this but the thoughts scare me. i refuse to tell my therapist because i dont want to be put into a mental hospital.

therapist doesn’t = mental hospital. Loose that fear because it’s a huge misconception on your part. You seem more than reasonable enough already by putting it to question. I say, go for therapy.

It’s important to see a mental health professional to work through these issues. Alot of people have thoughts of hurting other people! You are most definitely not alone, but talk to someone about it, get down to the grit and figure out why you are having these feelings. If you tell your therapist that you sometimes think about hurting other people, it throws up a flag, but there will not be an instant 302 in your future, they will try to figure out why you are having these thoughts and then discuss how you can decrease them as well as your aniexty. Good luck to you
