Okay, I know that there have been many questions on the subject, but I looked, and I haven't found any other question/answers that were helpful. Okay, well here goes. I've gotten so addicted to cutting, that lately I've been doing it in class. I even cut my initials into my skin. Well today I got caught, and I was telling a friend about it, and my 4th period teacher heard. Well after the test in that class, she called me into the hall because we were allowed to do anything, and I got out a needle, and when that teacher saw she called me out. Then she was all like you know what you do is dangerous and stuff, and I was like yes... and she said other stuff like I care about you, and want you to stop, and I was like yeah, whatever. Well, now I really want to stop, but I can't it's like I'm addicted. I want to end my life, yet I want to live. And so now, I don't know how to stop. And I would bring it up to one or both of the teachers that know, but I wouldn't know how to bring it up, and I'm afraid that they would tell my parents, and my parents wouldn't sympathize, they would get really mad, trust me I know. So I was wondering, how might I get over this addiction, and if I were to tell the teacher that I need help, then how would I bring it up. What would you do to get help, and if you were to ask a teacher for help, what would you say. And if you were a cutter, but no longer cut, I'd like to hear your stories, no matter how long! Thanks a bunch!
Sorry it's so long, but I'm really worried about how far I might take this. (link)

Hi Sweetie,
Yes it happened to me. I'm actually currently still in theraphy for it. ...I had issues and I was really messed up. The differnce was that I didn't have an addiction or obsession... Well looking back I'm glad I was cought because I don't think I could have explained it to my mother myself.
The thing you should do is NOT talk to your teacher (is none of her/his business). Seek the school counsler if you need help talking ot your parents about it. (If you get caught they CALL your parents... oh God all the horrible memories) Then they'll send you to get an evaluation (if they consider you high risk-suicidal you'll have an EMERGENCY evaluation) Eventually you'll end up in therapy. For some its easier talking about it there. They work out all your "why" and "how" issues (why you cut and how you got to that point and stuff).
Hope you get the help you need! Best wishes love. Take care! ~Blessed Be...

After I had a child of my own a year ago, somehow I found myself thinking about abortion often enough and how wrong it really is, no matter what the situation. I've become so pro life. Now, I don't know where this comes from, but I've felt this way for a year now and the way I feel is so strong about it I am always wondering what I can do to influence people not to get them. I would be happy if I knew I had saved some babie's lives. Does anyone know what kinds of things you can do to make some kind of difference, besides voting (i'm gonna), and besides making donations (I have no money). Is there some sort of site where ponderers go to get advice from someone specifically debating abortion? Remember I have a baby to take care of, so I am hoping there is something I can do that doesn't require going from office to office talking to political people. I'm looking for something more low key, but that can definately make a difference. Thanks. (link)

Hi Sweetie,
Well there are many organizations talking to women trying to convince them NOT to abort. (I can't name any, sorry. Don't know them.) Maybe you can write to them and offer your help. Maybe you can talk to women considering it and voice your opinion. You can maybe even make flyers explaining how abortions are REALLY done (how they murder unborn babies).
I'm sorry if I was of no help but I do hope you make a difference. Its good to know there are people like you who want to do something about crap like abortions. Best wishes!!! ~Blessed Be...

Hi everyone! I wanna be an actress so bad! I'm 13/f. I live in Grafton, WI. I love making my own movies and acting in them and I'd like to be a famous actress. How could I get a start? (link)
|
Hi Sweetie,
Well are you in your school's drama club? Another thing are you in high school or middle school? More chances come along in high school. Start of wathing plays and stuff (to exercixe your mind and stuff... the actors get it) and get involved in youth plays and dramas and stuff. Eventually you'll know more and more and you'll be prepare and then you may want to get an agent. Right now just watch out for any oppprotunity (i.e. roles in a play, commercial audition, etc.).
Good luck and best wishes! I hope your question is resolved and you are successful! ~Blessed Be...

Hey Guys, I need your help in overcoming one of the problem residing in me. You may call it as conservativeness or inferiority complex.
Rihgt from my childhood I speak less. I remember people used to ask me to talk atleast a sentence. I never bothered anybody. I never thought of this problem seriously before. But now I feel that I am missing something. I observed, before talking, I always think what others will say, what they will think. Is it a problem or complex? If yes, please give some remedy to overcome it. Thanks. (link)
|
Hi Sweetie,
As a child I was shy and quite. But I've changed in my teenage years. Well it sounds like you're very wise. Unfortunately people don't see or care about that. Yes its true you should always think before speaking (I've gotten myself into messes for not doing so) but sometimes there's really nothing specific people want to hear. Sometimes people just ask a question to hear a voice (...I hope you understand what I'm saying). Maybe you should try speaking when something interests you. Don't worry of what others will thinka and if you make a mistake in what you say dont worry, everybody does too. Words arent as strong as actions.
People will think more of you if you voice your emotions. If you say something wrong people will forget it. People don't remember the crap things people say but the wise stuff said. And the only way you're quote will be remembered is by speaking up.
I hope I or someone was of help. Best wishes! ~Blessed Be...

what do you girls use to get rid of pimples/acne, to wash ur face, lotion, what kind of foundation/cover-up/concealer? ps ... i dont have to much money and i would love to have clear skin by halloween! thanks gurlies! (link)
|
Hi Sweetie,
This might sound untrue and stupid but it totally works for me. First of all in order for this to work you MUST NOT pop your pimples. Now what I do is put a little bit of tooth paste on my pimple(s) in the night and leave it on for a while. You'll see the difference IMMIDIETLY.
Well I hope I was of help. Best wishes! ~Blessed Be...

Why do people answer questions, just to say they don't know, or to ask somebody else?
Why do people answer questions they obviously, from their answers, don't have a clue about? (link)
|
Hi Sweetie,
I can only assume these people don't have much going on in their lives. ...They seem to be trying to find a way to make time pass by. And since they're idiotic they do dumb things such as answering 'I don't know' when its not necessary. ...They're just weird, I suppose.
Fustrating, I know. Hope you don't run into these people too much. Best wishes. ~Blessed Be...

I am going to a whole bunch of places this year and i need to save a lot of money but i'm really bad at saving money because i always go shopping with my friends and stuff. What should i do?? I'll rate. (link)
|
Hi Sweetie,
I'm not an expert on saving money. I actually currently have $35 I made. You can get a job and start a bank account. But a percent of your money there and spend the rest. Just don't touch your bank money.
Last month I had no money. ...I was in debt. And I'm urrently unemployed... sort of. What I do is I invest. I bought 12 cool belts and since I have connections with a store my stuff (which I buy in wholesalery) get sold and I get my money back and start making profet and investing on OTHER things.
You can try that but if you can't... just tink harder next time you're shopping. Do I really need this? Don't I have this already? Can't I just get this borrowed from a friend? And you may want to have a yard sale and sell your old useless stuff.
Just a thought. I wish I was of help. Good luck! ~Blessed Be...

Hey, well I go to a Church and we are having some problems getting more people come to our youth group. My brother asked me to figure out some stuff girls can do at youth group. Because the guys always play sports and the girls dont like it so we dont play and were bored. So what are some of the stuff girls can do? I thought about cooking..like making a quick snack for all of us but thats all I have. If you can help me with more ideas I'd appreciate it. And if you go to youth group at a church, what are some of the stuff you do? Thanks so much and I rate all 5's!

Hi Sweetie,
Youth Group? Church? Hehe... Yeah, I don't do that. But I do have some ideas. Maybe you can arrange fund-raising activities. Bake sells... selling chocolates... or just trying to recrute people (just don't pressure anyone). You can maybe even do volunteer stuff.
Anyway, I hope you find something to do. Best wishes. Blessed Be...

ok well lately ive really had the urge to have sex. im a female and gonna be 15 soon and i know its too early but i dont know what to do. i dont even know how to have sex but ive been having dreams about it and everything. i dont want to be a slut! please help (link)
|
Hi Sweetie,
Don't worry it doesn't mean you HAVE TO. It has to do with hormones. You just have way tooo may time on your hands hehe Maybe you should try to involve yourself in other activities.
I'm sorry I'm not of help but I wish you luck and I hope you don't do anything you regret but I believe you won't. You know 15 is too soon and that's smart of you. Good luck! Blessed Be...

Wats some good websites that are free that have really good games that are really fun (link)
|
Hi Sweetie,
www.quizilla.com Not games... quizzes. (If you're a teenager you'll find this really cool!) Or www.neopets.com (If you're a little kid you'll love this site!) Yahoo games are cool.
Hope you find something fun out there! Blessed Be...

OK i am in the 7th grade and i need some ideas for a cute room. Im really colorful,i particularly like pink, purple, and blue. I like all colors though and i just need some ideas. Any pictures would be AWSOME.
thanx a bunch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
~i rate~ (link)
|
Hi Sweetie,
I'm going to have to be open minded because the only colors I care for are black and green. ...And I'm just weird.
Okay... people seem to like hot pink. You may want to get a blak mini couch in your room with hot pink little pillows (it'll stand out). You may want to get lamps with purple shdes. Maybe you can paint your walls blue... And you can get a purple rug or floor tiles (purple floor tiles seem cool) You can get pink bed sheets.
I'm sorry if I'm clueless and provide no help. I hope your room looks really cool and is a place you feel comfrtable exprssing yourself I guess. L.O.L. Blessed Be...

Hi Sweetie,
Hmm, well you can mention how this will icnrease employment opportunities... and bring more money to the city... And it would be a great idea to get some signatures of people who agree with your idea.
Hope I helped and I wish you luck! Blessed Be...

i like this girl. but she has a bf. i think she likes me. but im not sure., she told me im hot. i think she was kiding. so what sould i do.
thanks.... p.s. peace (link)

Hi Sweetie,
Hey, the same thing happened to me with a cute guy who already had a girlfriend. Except I knew he liked me... He broke up with his girlfriend at one point but I still stayed away because I didn't want to hurt him. Yeah, I had low self esteem. Anyway, back to your issue.
Well this girl... she's um... taken. Maybe she doesn't have romantic feelings but she still thinks your cute... If this is true don't worry about it, there are many pretty, nice girls out there for you. Especially if you are hot. l.o.l.
Now if she DOES like you there's not much you can do. I wouldn't recommend making a move and taking her away from the other guy. You'll regret it. All you can do is try to focus on another girl and if she breaks up with that one guy later on than you can try to see how things go for you guys.
I wish you good luck. Hope I was of help. Blessed Be...

whenever i am around my guy friends they laugh at me cuz im funny sometimes lol and ya but they cant see me as going out with them cuz all my other girl friends have bfs but the guys just see me as a funny friend. what should i do? (link)
|
Hi Sweetie,
Well are you interested in these guys... in a romantic way? If you're not then don't worry, it probably means your guy friends think more of you than eye candy or something of that sort. If you are interested in one of these guys then... flirt with him. L.O.L. If you're not then ask them if they have any cute friends to fix you up with. They'll probably pick a really good guy for you. I hope you're not too bummed out by my answer hehe I mean well :) Blessed Be...

well i met my bestfriend on newyears last year and we've been really close since..its just lately since the new school year has started we really havent been as close..this always ends up happening and i dont want to lose another bestfriend.we go to different schools and all..but it just seems we can never find time to chill with each other and when we do we never have anything to talk about or do because we dont really have anything in common because i guess our personalities have changed becuase now we hang out with different and i just dont know what to do..somneone please help
**desperate need** (link)
|
Hi Sweetie,
Yeah, that tends to happen to many of us. I personally move on... Got used to it. ....Maybe I'm subconsciously anti-social. Anyway, back to you. Well.. do you guys (or girls.. or guy and girl... you know what I mean!) have eachother's numbers? Or screen names? Get your buddy to get a yahoo account and get one too if you don't have one yet. Other things you can do... GET A NOTEBOOK! When you have it write letters on how your day went and what issues that are going on. Then when you see your buddy give it to him/her and have your buddy write to you whenever he/she has time.
About you guys being different... that can actually be a good thing. Now you have stuff you can talk about and discuss... friction.
Well good luck! I hope you don't lose this friend and I hope I was of help. Blessed Be...

signed ~*lost...
P.S.- y cant i b happy??? (link)

Hi Sweetie,
Well I've experienced similar things. (The cutting.) Your happiness question is best to be answered with a therapist. If you don't have a therapist maybe you should be seeing one. Although theraphy doesn't work for everyone (you have to cooaporate) it may help. About your exboyfriend... does he know you may still be in love with him? (I'm sorry if I'm over assuming but this sounds like love to me) ...Although it is dangerous for one person to have such power over you the way this ex does (...since you're only happy with him) ...Maybe you should take this time to be alone and evaluate your true self. You may not be able to fully understand whats really going on with all of your emotions in one night... I'm still learning things about myself and why I mess up. I really can't help you... you have to have a will. It takes courage to find it. I hope however you only get better rather than worst and that someone if not I has been a help to you. And you may want to consider a therapist or councler... Blessed Be...

im in a real jab. i like my best friend and he likes me but... he also likes my bestfriend. And we both know about it. he's really sweet and a good friend but lately weve been getin to know the real him and its perverted. then suddenly he goea out with this girl micheal and didn.t tell us. at first we didn't think it was true until he told us. a big fight happened and we ignored him for a while. Now while he's going out with her i feel jealous. i care for him and its hurting our friend ship. does he like me? does he like my friend? or is he just playin us both?... (link)

Hello Dearest You,
You seem like a sweet person and he seems like an asshole. But its not your fault for caring for him OR for being jeolous.
Knowing facts like that he liked you or that once he was a good friend (even if it was pretend) will bring these feelings of jeolousy you just can't help. There's nothing wrong with any of that. Just remember that ALTHOUGH you care for him you may not be the person who can help him. Hopefully that person exists and he'll meet this person.
As for you there are other cool CUTE guys... that will just like you and not you and your buddies (l.o.l.) A guy who actually deserves you. It doesn't matter how nice your "friend" was but what he did was wrong. If he ever wants your friendship (AND MEANS IT THIS TIME) make sure he EARNS it back. Make sure he shows you he's changed. Until then straighten out your feelings and wish him the best and try to find an effort to notice the other cute guys!
Wish You the Best and I Hope I Was of Help. Blessed Be...

ok well i usually dont write on these things but theres this guy in my class and im not sure how to tell what he thinks of me. he looks at me sometimes in class and he smiles at me when i look at him. and sometimes when i turn around hes looking at me and then we both kind of look away. hes really cute and id love to know if he likes me back. yall please tell me some signs so i can figure out what hes thinking. i know im not ugly .. actually lots of guys think im hot (not trying to make my self sound cool or something) but i just want to know what you think about why he always is looking at me and smiling. (link)
|
Hello You,
Been there done that. Whch girl hasn't? hehe. Well what more signs do you need? He smiles at you? He's always staring at you? He gets shy when you star back? Obviously this guy thinks highly of you. Don't be too surprised if he asks you out but don't be too surprised if he doesn't. Keep reading. Maybe he thinks you're "out of his league". If this is true then it really sucks. However you can still do something. You're going to have to send hints back... start with little hints like smiling at him when he sees you and waving hello when you see him. Then give him stronger hints like complimenting him on something or even asking him for help with something or choosing him as a partner for a project.
Or do what the other modern teenagers do... get a friend to ask him if he likes you and examine his reaction. Or get the friend to say that YOU like him.
Hope I was of luck. Good luck and I wish you the best (es[ecially if this guy is as cute as you say...does he have a cute friend? just kidding! ...does he? or a broher?) Blessed Be...

Okay, school is really stressful, DUH!! But this year I've decided no more bad grades for me and I'm starting off fresh this year. I'm going to get good grades, thats my goal. But I don't have the energy or excitement or whatever you want to call it to do my homework and sometimes even school work. I'm very organized. I just want to get good grades. Any ideas? I'm graduating in like almost 2 years. I want to make it the best. (link)
|
Hello there.
Wow, I'm a bit like you except I'm messy (and I don't sleep) and I'm unorganized and that holds em back a lot. The organization gives you an advantage. Well... maybe you should set up some rules for yourself. Make s chedule and STICK TO IT! For instance... make an hour for homework (or 2 depending on how much it takes) and when that hour comes screw every excuse NOT to do your homework. Make it like a game or a task or whatever. Keep a clock or watch in front of you and PRESSURE yourself (...um... unless you suck to work under pressure) to finish your homework BEFORE the hour (or hours) is up. Reward yourself if you do finish and punish yourself by working "after hours" if you don't and just finish your homework off with the rest of the time (...thinking of yourself as a failure).
Honestly this would take too much effort to work for me. What I would do is take a moment to depress myself and think of how I'm a loser. Once I've convinced myself I think of what to do to change it. That gives me motivation.
Hope I somehow helped... Blessed Be...
