Well, yeah, I'm not gonna lie. I get kind of angry at people who complain about people not trying hard enough to help. For two main reasons;

- I, and many of my close friends, would have done anything to have someone reach out and would never have turned away help. Hearing that someone got it handed to them on a silver platter and they turned it away pisses me off. They're old enough to know that if they want help they need to accept it from people offering.

- Secondly because I've been the person desperately trying to help someone who refused to get help. He was 15 and so was I and he hurt me so fucking bad. When he tried to kill himself he blamed me for not trying hard enough to help even when he resisted and hurt me. That's bullshit. 15 is old enough to do something. It's old enough to accept help that's being offered.

So, yeah, people are humans. So are parents. So are boy/girlfriends etc. They can only do so much. If you refuse the help that is offered to you, I think it's stupid to blame the person who offered help. It's not nice to tell someone to get over it, but if they refused to admit they had a problem/illness and they still acted whiny/emo I would have told them to get over it too.

Here's the thing: nobody is blaming people who offer help. If we're blaming anyone, it's society in general and the lack of information and ignorance that surrounds mental illness to this day.

I'm sorry about what happened to you, that's terrible. Of course it wasn't your responsibility. The relationship between two fifteen-year-olds is a lot different between a fifteen-year-old and their adult parent. The parent does have a responsibility to make certain their child gets help, same as with any other medical problem.

If a teenager refused to admit they had, say, a heart condition because they didn't want to quit their sports team, could their parent just ignore that too?

If you had no difficulty admitting you had a problem, that's wonderful for you. I did have a great deal of difficulty, and it wasn't because I was being "whiny". You're being pretty dismissive.
