Call MeSKY
i;m 16 and i live in New York, The reason i decided to give out advice because i have been through alot in my life,
-I grew up without a father,
-dealt with abuse up till recently,
-dealt with many mental issues,
-dealt with death in a close knit family,
-dealt with disease.
-Jerk Boyfriends
-Sex issues
-Step Sisters
I've been through a lot, but it only made me stronger. I know what it feels like to be down, to be lower than you've ever been before, Sometimes you just need someone, even if you don't know this person just to talk too. When friends aren't as supportive as they should be, and parents aren't there. Thats why I'm here. I'm not perfect with advice but i will tell you straight up and do my best to help. No matter how big or small a problem is. I will be as open as i possibly can, and maybe just maybe( No promises though) i will help. Just know that talking is a good way to solve any problem..

Okay, so I am fifteen and I am about to turn sixteen towards the end of the month. I am just wondering, what is it about turning sixteen that girls are really excited about? You know, like, they throw really huge parties and stuff like that.... Please do explain to me what turning sixteen signifies.
Thanks! (link)

For years, Sweet Sixteen birthday parties have been held to commemorate a break from adolescence. Traditionally, this sort of merriment focused on girls, but today, the celebration has become quite popular for boys as well. This is also the time in ones’ life where first cars are bought and driven after obtaining a learner’s permit.
I know that when i turned sixteen i was excited about driving, working better jobs, and being treated more like an adult rather than a child.

so why not wait a couple of years but still pitch the idea to your parents.
See what they say.
I know that my mom is making wait til im 17..

what is bipolar (link)
|
bipolar (also called manic-depressive) is a disorder disorder
Bipolar disorder, also known as manic-depressive illness, is a brain disorder that causes unusual shifts in a person's mood, energy, and ability to function. Different from the normal ups and downs that everyone goes through, the symptoms of bipolar disorder are severe. They can result in damaged relationships, poor job or school performance, and even suicide. But there is good news: bipolar disorder can be treated, and people with this illness can lead full and productive lives.
Symptoms-
he periods of highs and lows are called episodes of mania and depression.
Signs and symptoms of mania (or a manic episode) include:
* Increased energy, activity, and restlessness
* Excessively "high," overly good, euphoric mood
* Extreme irritability
* Racing thoughts and talking very fast, jumping from one idea to another
* Distractibility, can't concentrate well
* Little sleep needed
* Unrealistic beliefs in one's abilities and powers
* Poor judgment
* Spending sprees
* A lasting period of behavior that is different from usual
* Increased sexual drive
* Abuse of drugs, particularly cocaine, alcohol, and sleeping medications
* Provocative, intrusive, or aggressive behavior
* Denial that anything is wrong
A manic episode is diagnosed if elevated mood occurs with three or more of the other symptoms most of the day, nearly every day, for 1 week or longer. If the mood is irritable, four additional symptoms must be present.
Signs and symptoms of depression (or a depressive episode) include:
* Lasting sad, anxious, or empty mood
* Feelings of hopelessness or pessimism
* Feelings of guilt, worthlessness, or helplessness
* Loss of interest or pleasure in activities once enjoyed, including sex
* Decreased energy, a feeling of fatigue or of being "slowed down"
* Difficulty concentrating, remembering, making decisions
* Restlessness or irritability
* Sleeping too much, or can't sleep
* Change in appetite and/or unintended weight loss or gain
* Chronic pain or other persistent bodily symptoms that are not caused by physical illness or injury
* Thoughts of death or suicide, or suicide attempts

well i really want to make a few changes...
first of all, i really want highlights. this is actually a possibility.. maybe. my parents used to say no because they thought it was too annoying to maintain and stuff. then i asked my mom again and she said maybe. any other ways i could help convince her?
also, i only have 2 piercings.. in my ears. i really want a double pierce, cartilage, and belly button pierce. my parents hate piercings a lot.. like maybe i could get a double but i have really slim chances of getting a cartilage or a belly button. a lot of girls in my grade are getting them and i really like them. any ideas to convince parents?
also.. if you keep your belly button ring or cartilage in for like yearsss and then take it out will the hole eventually close up because i dont want a piercing there when im a grandma. haha (link)

highlights- they are a pain to maintain but ask your parents to just give you this chance and if they are to hard to maintain then you will just not do it again.
Piercings- Many parents don't like them but they do need to realize they will close up if they are completely hideous. I have my cartilage pierced and threes holes in my ear and i use to have more but i grew out of the them and just simple took them out after having them for a long time..and they closed
Go to them like a responsible adult and talk to them about it.
Parent like to see their children able to goo to them like a adult.
Good luck

Does anyone know of any good volunteer organization in (or close to) Westchester NY?? I'm looking for something to commit t...and to get really involved in (I'm 16 years old). I would love to do something involving kids...but i'm open to ANYTHING.
Thanks so much in advanced!!! (link)

Do you know of any hospitals near by.
Volunteer at hospitals is a great thing to get committed too..
Also there is a program called club Rec they may have it at a elementary school which is working with kids..
Also ask around at preschools or daycare..
they alway can use a extra hand.
Have you thought of maybe developing your own volunteer program that maybe evolves kids.
For example theres a program that involves teenage kids going to school and reading to kids or going to hospitals and reading to patients.
\Perhaps a referee for youth sports.
Or take your favorite sport and develop a group for kids who want to play and that is also volunteering..
hope i helped
