i have this state of mind that makes me view and act differently against myself. like i feel like i'm an awkard, less than adult, not special, not my best, and anxious. i want to be myself and my best but because i was hurt in the past, i can't get past what i feel and i feel incompetent to doing things. i set myself up for failure. is there anyway i can stop thinking in this kind of way?

Well don't start to think you are better than people like someone else said. But I really doubt you will :)
I feel this way a lot too. I look around and see all the people who I think are better than me. I know who made me this way. That's what you should do. Figure out the event or person that has hurt you and made you feel like this. Then seriously think. Ask yourself questions like "Why do I still let this control me?" and "How do I let myself move on and try to heal the hurt?" and "How do I make myself realize that I AM good enough?" Then get some real answers!
Also start to mentally encourage yourself! "I can SO do this!" Say that to yourself every time you're faced with something you think you will fail.
You are good enough! Come on and try it!

When its comes to parents snooping around in their kid's business, how far is too far?
A few months ago I found out my own mom had searched/read my diary, any school notes from friends hidden in drawers, snooped onto my Myspace, Facebook, and Xanga, and even talked to some loose lipped friends about things I had done when I had given her no previous reason to not trust me. It has even gone as far as her texting my boyfriend and asking how far we've gone.
For a while, I wanted to appear more bad ass so I faked things on my Myspace and Xanga lying about sneaking out, drinking, sexual experiences, smoking etc. to fit in with friends. Well my mom found these and grounded me for weeks when in reality I hadn't actually done anything wrong. Of course she didn't believe that since she thought she had found her proof.
Anyways, how do I get her to stop. I've asked and asked and she doesn't care to quit. Has she gone too far? (link)

Yes, I would have to say that is WAY too far. The only thing I can understand is the Myspace, Facebook and Xanga, because of all the dangerous people that could be on there. But reading your diaries, talking to your friends, and especially texting your boyfriend is where it gets beyond absurd. No offense to your mother, just to what she is doing.
You really need to talk to her about this. I mean like a sit-down talk, not a quick "Mom can you stop poking around me?" before school. lol. :) Even the craziest of moms can be changed with a nice talk and a little time. Hope I helped and good luck! :)

Eat a LOT of protien! Here is a list of some good vegetarian sources of protein:
Milk
Soy Milk
Eggs
Cheese
Yogurt
Peanut Butter
Beans, Tofu, Lentils and other Legumes
Grains such as bread and pasta
Nuts and seeds (such as almonds)
Another thing you could do to help your hair grow is give yourself a scalp massage. Here is a link to the instructions and other helpful info- http://www.hairboutique.com/tips/tip273.htm
Here is some other hair growing info that is VERY helpful- http://hairboutique.com/tips/tip214.htm
Mane n' Tail Shampoo is also amazing. It was originally made for horses, but in people hair it helps achieve longer, stronger, healthier, and more fuller looking hair.
There is SO much more info and tips out there on the Web. I could not write them all but I really hope I helped! I am very sorry to hear about your hair and I hope that soon it will be long and healthy!
P.S. If the links dont work just google them and the articles will come up. I am new here and do not know if links show up.
