Hi my name is Sabrina. The worst thing in the world is dealing with a problem on your own. It may lead you to confusion and even leave you without a solution. It's always better to hit up someone else's opinion on things and help you see that there is light at the end of your problem. I have been through alot of things in my life, many more than you could probably count and I am only 18. I have learned alot from my expierences and still deal with some of the issues that I have before. I know how difficult life can be, it puts so much stress on you trying to be as perfect as you can. But you have to know that being you is as perfect as you can be, it just takes a while to finally notice yourself for who you are when your so distratcted by life. Anyways, anyone feel free to contact me I am just here to listen and hopefully shed some light on your problems. It's my passion to make people feel better about themselves.

I used to cut frequently, but then I stopped for a long time. I was doing really well and learning to deal with my feelings in other ways, but just the other day I was in the drug store and I bought a package of blades and went home and cut myself several times. I have been doing ever since. I have been feeling pretty depressed lately. There has been a lot of stuff going on in my life and I don't know how to deal with it. I know that I shouldn't cut myself, but I feel so much better. It really helps me deal. Where can I go for help with stopping cutting. I cannot tell my parents and I am so afraid of telling my friends. Please help. I really don't know what to do. (link)

Facing your inner demons
It's hard to finally come to grips with yourself, your thoughts, feelings, and inner demons. Everyone has inner demons whether they know it or not. It may be something as simple as finding a flaw about yourself and letting that one flaw control about how you feel about yourself. You will then start to pick apart yourself and see your physical body as your whole representation of yourself. Youll only in the end wear yourself down. It's whats on the inside that counts, sure many of you have heard this zillions of times, it possibly means alot or nothing. But we all must face them if we want to be happy, and in order to be happy I believe we have to honestly come face to face with who gave us our life. Ive learned many people on this earth face depression or any other mental illness, but I truly believe you can come out of it if you start to pray and stay away from the horror of this world. Ban yourself from the temptations of satan. Satan comes through in alot of things we might not consider, he comes through in the war, violence, television, music, people...etc. Sometimes we think people are that way b/c of their personalities, true, but I believe everyone has a reason for doing something, its a choice. They either choose evil or good. If they choose evil they have let the demon in them win and God is unhappy. I know its hard to stray away from things we think are good for us, like those trashy television shows, its only buying little into this aweful world. Most people believe psychology has alot to do with making a person feel better, sure it can, talking about your feelings and getting it out can be relief but its not a permanent fix. The true fix is God. Satan will always tempt you and fill your head with horrible things, trust me I have dealt with plenty of that on my own. At first I thought I was half insane, come to grips I wasnt being true to God. I lost touch with him inside my depression and gave into the negative sides that Satan envoked me with. Its sometimes hard for me to believe what I say, and how much I have learned. But the only miracle that ever worked for me was finally going to church and actually listening to the gospel, actually reading the bible and wanting to learn instead of going by parental force.
K i know you might be like huh? to what I just wrote, but dont. It holds alot to what you feel like, depression and such. Cutting is a sin, cutting is destroying your body. You can get help!!! Go to the hospital or ask yoru parents to talk you to a treatment place, please do this!!! Cutting shouldnt be your life, get help now. It was the best thing I did and the best thing I did was pray and look to God. God will always help and cure if your willing. U might get scared, but its natural, take a step in your life and do it!!

I fully understand what your going through. I am the same way. Sometimes it feels there is no point to anything. My unhappiness came from a reason I dont know about. I am seeing a therapist now, as I suddenly have bouts of depression throughout the day and think exact things you do. Sometimes I will be happy and so fun to be around, the next depressed and angry at the world. The world is depressing I know as you said. There is so much chaotic things happening and it feels like your alone in thinking this, but your not. No one seems to care it feels like, and when you keep thinking this, all the negativity just builds and builds and builds until you feel lost and hopeless. You may be depressed, there is help out there. You could either talk to someone like a counseler or simply tell someone who will take time out to understand. We all feel a certain way for some kind of reason or another, get to the real root of your problem and youll feel the tension easily erase over time, either with medication or therapy.

Lately I've just been feeling down. Im 17/f. The more and more I'm around people I realize how idiotic and useless they are. I realize more and more how insensitive and selfish and full of hate they are. And things piss me off really bad. Sometimes even just a small noise will send me raging and I just get bitchy and in a bad mood. All I have to do in the mornings to get bitchy is simply talk to my dad. I feel bad about it, but I'm just so tired of him, everything he does is annoying(I live with only him). I'm just tired of everything. I don't know what to do. I'm just normally in a bad mood or down and even when I am in a good mood, people just, bring me down. I'm not ugly or fat or anything so it's not like I get made fun of, cause I don't at all. I actually don't even know whats wrong with me. Does anyone else feel this way, or know whats wrong with me, or how to fix it? I think I really do need some help cause you know theres always more to the story.. My email is shmookie058@yahoo.com Thanks (link)

I am in your same boat. I thought no one else really felt like this, that I was just going insane myself. It's good to know someone else can relate. I always get in bad moods from the way people act. People's attitudes always annoy me and tire me and piss me off so much. I get to be the biggest bitch in the world sometimes. My moods are very deep, like I am just in the worst mood sometimes with no explanation or over someone else's behavior just like you. My dad does the same thing with me, I get in a bad mood when I talk to him because he annoys me and always has some joke to make of everything. It sends me into complete maddness. I just want to squeeze something so hard until it dies, I know that sounds psychotic, but I just get an urge to release my tension and anger in some way or another. You could have some sort of anger problem or some kind of depression. Depression can send you into moods of just feeling angry at the world and various people, even though they intentionally don't do anything to hurt you. Please feel free to contact me sometime, I know alot about what your saying and we can really talk about this my email is Aquarius8715@cs.com. I advise you see a therapist, it is what I am doing currently to resolve your feelings. It is such a relief to have someone listen to how you feel, it relieves stress and tension to get it out and finally know what is wrong with you. Just know your not alone.

Hey everyone. I'm kind of stuck in a situation that I don't know what to do with, please help. Recently my friends have been noticing alot of changes in my mood, such as it changing every few minutes; Like from excited to depressed in 2 minutes. My friend's dad has Bipolar Disorder, and she says that I may have it too. Well I'm really tired of being like this, because I just want to be happy, without the feelings of sadness all of the time. I want to ask my parents if I can go see a doctor about this, but my parents never take me seriously. I'm 15 years old and they still treat me like a 10 year old. If I were to ask them then they would laugh in my face and say nothing was wrong with me; 'It's all in my head' would probably be a response. Can someone help me with my problem? I don't want to be in so much pain anymore, I want to be normal. Without any help then I can't live like I once did. What should I do? Thanks so much ahead of time. (link)

This is exactly like me. I am suffering from this now. One minute Im hyper, happy, and talkable, then next Im depressed, mean, and often suicidal. The best thing to know is your not alone in this. Many people suffer this way. I am not sure what it is called, but right now I am seeing a therapist and working on it. It's hard to live through because you have no idea when your mood will change. My mood often changes like every 30-45 minutes. It is really hard around friends and family too because you don't know if you'll regret what you did in that mood or not. My parents are like yours too, they find everything funny and find it hard to take me seriously. They get concerned about someone else, but for me it's like 'oooh your just saying that because YOU want attention.' I think I am far past wanting attention, I am 18 years old and have been this way for 4 years, I think I would know if I have a problem or not especially since it's lasted so long. You need to tell your parents everything, explain to them how your feeling. Tell them you want help badly, this is serious. Even though my dad still makes stupid comments, I know I am on the right track to recovery with therapy and all. You should talk to a close friend or counseler, someone, anyone who will listen and get you help.

I usually dont eat much. I eat maybe one small thing for breakfast and half of my lunch. I usually dont eat dinner. I usually exercise everything off if I eat a huge lunch or a huge dinner. I constantly worry about how much i weigh but im too scared to weigh myself cause im scared of the effect itll have on me. I usually exercise regularly. I run a mile a day, 30 pushups, 5 minute wall sit, and tons of other things. I'm also involved in Cheerleading so that kind of also is an excuse for me to exercise more often and burn off any fat. Ive been getting sick easier lately and idk why ive been sick for like 2 weeks now. Am i anorexic or what?
Oh also ive noticed my legs are smaller and so are my arms.. and ive noticed other things but i need oppinions i rate 5s. kthanxbye! (link)

I think if you don't stop this behavior now you could be on the road to anorexia. You do have some of the symptoms of anorexia nervosa. For a doctor to diagnose anorexia nervosa there has to be physical symptoms of it, the biggest one is dramatic weight loss, amnorehha(loss of period), ireegular heartbeat, etc etc, there is alot more. But what your describing is just getting deeper and deeper in, and everyday you let it pass it just gets worse. Trust me, I have dealt with anorexia before and have been treated. The best thing to do is talk to someone about it, don't be ashamed. You could have soe sort of chemical imbalance in your brain, an eating disorder is usually never purposely brought on by the person, it is triggered, but something in the brain is usually the case. Also people who tell you anorexics dont eat, they are wrong. Anorexics do eat, the just eat very very little, and then they will do anything in their power to exercise it off or they might try another method of keeping it off such as laxatives. Anorexia isnt about just starvation, its about your body image and how you make yourself feel inside. Anorexia is a form of self-mutilation, and you can die from this. Your worth more than what you might think your worth. You weight isn't half of what makes you you. I want you to be safe, please get help before it's too late, I know how it feels to be trapped under the disease. If you want to talk more with me feel free anytime to email me at Aquarius8715@cs.com.
xoxo
