I think in addition to apologizing you should explain just as you have here.

I think you should try and dig up the most honest explanation of your behavior, based on your past, explain it to them inperson and then give them space and say hi in a week or two. Other than that, you'll just have to see how things go.

I once called out twice because I couldn't remember having called out. I was loopy on cough syrup and sounding drunk told my boss "I just need one more day" thankfully they knew I was sick and we all laughed about it. Hope you're already feeling better

Please do yourself a favor and invest in some heavy duty gloves. It's much better to fish something out of a clogged toilet than to have that toilet overflow and spew sewage

Being a dumb kid at one point in my life, I've learned not to flush random objects. Thankfully I learned this with a clean and empty toilet

Right now you feel guilty and ashamed for sharing how you're feeling. That's not normal or healthy. Talking to a therapist will help you learn to not feel guilty for having emotions. Itll make you feel less alone. You'll have people on your side.

It is expensive but if your parents truly love you (assuming they can afford it) they'll want to do whatever they can to save your life. Because that's what depression is- its a fight for your life.

If you can't/don't want to go to therapy I'd suggest at least reading up on DBT skills (coping mechanisms), thought reframing (a DBT skill) and maybe shadow work (self therapy).

Please be safe and don't be afraid to reach out.
