um.. ok i go to a catholic school and i'm going through rough times. i know many of my friends who've cut themselves well i was doing my s.studies project and i was using sharp scissors and i was questioning myself if it would go through my skin b/c the last time i had i tried to cut myself it didnt work.. well this time it did. so know i have 3 cuts on my arm, i seriously regret doing it, i showed my mawmaw and im never doing it again BUT i have a passion play tommorow and i'm afraid that my religion teacher will see it.. should i be afraid or is there any tips to hide it b/c a big band-aid will be noticable. thanks for the help

It's good you realized what you did, and said you were never doing it again. You could always try a concealer over it. If someone asks what it's from, you can tell them what you did, or not tell them. It's your business. Send me something if you need more help. ♥ Kristen

I feel like the worst person in the world. On March 17 me and my boyfriend of 3 years got into a huuuge fight because he cheated on me. Our relationship was sooo good and we always got told that we were the role model for couples, well anyways..we got into a huge fight and we said things that we didnt mean and I told him that I wish he wasnt in my life and he would just die because I hated him so much, those were my exact words. Later that night at 11:26 I got a phone call from his sister (we were really close, she was like a little sister to me) she was crying really hard and she told me that she had found him in his room laying on the floor, dead. I didnt even know what to do with myself. He had taken a gun to his head. She read me a note that he left and it said "I'm so sorry, I love you so much" thats all it said, and he had the date that we started going out until forever carved into his arm. That night when my parents found out they tried to comfort me and all that but I just didnt want to be around anyone. I went to my room and I cut myself so bad and my mom walked in and stopped me and just held me and I cried for hours, with my wrists bleeding, and I fell asleep crying in my moms arms. I'm getting help now. I went to his funeral and it was the hardest thing I've ever had to do in my life, I fell to the floor when I went up to his casket at the wake and his mom had to pick me up and just hold me while we cried. I go to his house all the time and talk to his family and just tell them how sorry I am and we talk about all of our memories. I havent slept since the night it happened, and I havent been to school, the doctors say I probably wont go to school for about another month, I might be homeschooled. I can't even look at myself anymore. I can't beleive those hateful words were the last words I ever got to tell the love of my life. I'm sorry it is really long but does anyone have any advice on how to help me get through this?

I'm so sorry! Remember that it's not your fault! He made the decision. Right now, it'll probably help just to talk and let all your feelings out. Write in a journal or talk to a guidance counselor. Give yourself time to get over this and express how you feel. Send me something if you need to talk. I'm here to listen. ♥ Kristen

HELP

Just tell other people that you could only invite a certain amount of people. Maybe you can get togther with others later, but for now, just have the party you originally planned.

tomorrow is the talent show at my school and i want to sit next to the kid i like, how can i go about doing this? if it helps, my 2 friends are helping me. ones a girl and ones a guy.

As you go to sit down, just casually make your way up to him and say hi, and start a conversation. Good luck! ♥ Kristen

I was a cutter for about eh, a few months. Then all hell broke loose I was sent away, skip the drama. I've been clean for almost a year..but now more sucky drama is stirring about in my world. I've been thinking about selfharm, but I've still been clean.

Now that you ahve the background...

What can I do with all of my..'emotions'..(did that ever sound cheesy) I already am a poet and a novelest. I pound out on Bass, too...

Danke

It's hard... But you've realized you have a problem with it, and you stopped. Remember that cutting is not going to solve anything. Try talking to someone to let things out, or write your daily thoughts in a journal. Best wishes! Send me something if you need to talk. ♥ Kristen

My 'friend' is ruining my life!!!!!!! She talks crap on me and ALL of my other good friends all the time! She spreads rumors that arent true! She is a SLUT and she is pround of it! You just can't stop her she is like this bug you just can't kill and I don't know what to do! What can I do to make her stop doing this?!?! She has new friends now, and I know she is going to ruin their lives as well. I dont want them going through the pain I went through because of her. THey say they don't like her at all, but they still are nice to her and hang around her. I know if they keep making her think that they are freinds that she will go around and screw them over jsut like she did to me and my other good friend. What can I say/do to make it stop before it happens? Thanks! I RATE HIGH! :)

She's not a friend at all. There's not much to do but completely ignore her. She wants the attention, and you're giving it to by responding. Talk to your principal, a teacher, a parent, or your guidance counselor. You deserve better than what's happening now. Good luck, and if you need to talk, just drop one in my inbox. ♥ Kristen

Hey, my family might move from here in Wisconsin to Florida. I want to sooo bad for the weather. But I just can't leave all my friends here. i love em all to death. And my best friend and I are really close and it will be so hard for me to leave her, and everyone else. How can I not miss her so much??

Promise each other that no matter what, you will stay in touch. Write letters, email each other, talk over instant messenger. My best friend is probably moving to North Carolina in the summer, and I know if we stay in touch, we can stay friends. Best wishes! Send me something if you need to talk. ♥ Kristen

this is kinda gross but does anyone know a good way to keep your armpits dry? i have even tried mens deoderant...i need something stronger HELP

First off, try an anti-perspirant deodorant. If that doesn't work, put on just a little baby powder. If you need to, talk to your doctor and they'll be able to help you. ♥ Kristen

Hey. I'm in the 7th grade, and for my grade in math for the 3rd quarter, I know I got a 87.45% B+. Can that be rounded to an A?

It depends on your school, but the grade is usually only rounded up to the nearest tenth, which would make your grade still an 87. An 87 in my school is a B+.. It wouldn't hurt to ask your teacher though. ♥ Kristen

I'm in the same situation. Start eating healthier, like cutting out most sweets. Do crunches/situps everyday, and do leg lifts. If you need anything else, just send me something. ♥ Kristen

Wash your face really well, or use a makeup remover which can be in the beauty section of a store.

Okay, so I'm 14 f. About a year ago my breasts had a growth spurt and now I have stretch marks! I can't wear anything slightly low cut or you see ugly red lines. I'm not a slut or anything, but going to the beach I need to show a little... anybody know what to do?

Use cocoa butter, or look for another stretch mark cream at your drugstore or somewhere like Wal-Mart. They'll help reduce the visibility of the marks. They will most likely fade over time, but for now, try a cream.

Okay well i have a friend and she makes me do EVERYTHING 4 her well at lunch like she will be like here is 50 cents go buy me a cookie and i do it! i dont want to but i do anyways. and i through her trash away 4 her and she pays me a dime and i dont want to do that either i just feel like i can tsay no and when i do i feel like she will be mad at me but whp cares right i cant do stuff 4 her right? well i dont know what do to please help!

The the next time she tells you to go do something, say no. If she gets mad, don't get an attitude. Just explain that she's not your boss and you don't have to do it. Good luck! Send me something if you need more help. ♥ Kristen
