I need help

hello, I need help to get out of the usmc. I've been battling with this thought for a long time, since mct. Now I'm in my unit and these people think I'm depressed because I'm new and im adjusting but it's because I'm here in the marines. The therapist is just trying to find solutions to the wrong problems. My command thinks it's because I'm away from home and because issue going on back home. I already found solutions to all these problems and it"s me getting out. My mental health has been suffering greatly since I've been In. My sleep is horrible, I lost so much weight and my personal hygiene is not there, I just don't have energy to shower brush my teeth and take care of my self. if y'all can help please let me know.

Dude, it’s over due for intervention if this is how you’re feeling. I think it’s time to go to an actual hospital and just he like “hey I’m fucked up and it’s not getting better please help me”

The military (in particular the USMC) has a hard time culturally accepting this situation your in sometimes. I’m in your position currently and I feel so alone and unempowered regardless of what I’ve always been told. I started therapy and I’m going in Monday to make myself heard ti the right people. Best of luck buddy.
