My best friend, Claire, is basically the leader of the 'bad crowd' at our school. She started drinking/having sex at the age of 13, and we are now 16. We've been very best friends since age 12, but I on the otherhand follow all the rules. She got arrested for having alcohol/getting drunk on school property. She swore she wouldn't drink after a near-death drinking expeirence that hurt everyone around her when she wasn't expected to live through the night. We fought on and off about her problems, but finally she toned down the drinking and we became closer then ever. She truly is my very best friend, she's been there for me with everything.

Now, she's skipping school again, she's drinking every weekend, and having sex with random guys more then ever. I want to save her again. I can't fight against her. When I do, she pushes me away and does more and more illegal things. I don't want to lose my best friend again, it hurt too bad the first time. Please help. (link)
I know exactly what you're going through. And it's hard. First, try talking to her. =Maybe that will work, maybe it won't. If it doesn't, you have to learn something. That you don't have to completely abadon her, but oyu can't get to colse. Because I have ahinch she's one of those people that takes takes and akes and never gives anyhting. So you have to just figure out that it costs to much to give yourself over:(

I'm really sorry, and I hope this helped.

hi. im feeling like i am worth the same amount as a pile of dog poo. My really good friends are no longer speaking to me because of god knows why, i went from being a straight A student to basically all D's and F's, my digestion issues keep getting worse and worse to the point where i can literally only eat 20 food items...all of which are highly disgusting and boring, my body has gone from "modelesque" to disgustingly flabby and body fat rolls, i used to be really outgoing, talkative, but now i can barely find things to say even to my parents (we're REALLY close), i haven't had my period in practically 2 1/2 months (REALLY ANNOYING) and im ALWAYS sick. I think i have chromes disease (always having an AWFUL upset stomach and diarrhea and basically feeling icky--o, and there's NO meds or cures). i really want my life to change, but i just can't. I feel as if my life should end, because i just want to be happy, but i know suicide isn't a good thing at all (not even a consideration for me) but i just don't know how to overcome this. Please help me. i honestly don't know what to do. O and please don't suggest therapy because 1)we don't have enough money for sessions, and 2) i HATE spilling my guts, even this is hard for me. i hate showing emotions in front of people, especially ones i don't really know.

if you could help me out, w/o telling//advising me to go into therapy, u might just change my life from disastrously depressing, to happy for once

thanks (link)
Hi. First off, I'm really sorry you're going throught this hard place in your life. I'm one of those people that hates counselors and tharapy too, so I kind of understand you there. A couple of years ago, I went througha spot like this, and I don't exactly know where you stand in religion, but I kow what helped me. I started reading the Bible and praying more. No, it doesn't cure you, but it made me feel like someone was there thtat inderstood completely what I was going through. It made the hard days easier, and eventusally I got through it. Have you also considered medicine for depression? That might not have anything to do with your situatuion, but it's possible. And there are medicines out there that help syptoms for Chromes Disease, if its doctor diagnosed. I hope I helped!


In school, I was totally expecting to see everyone wearing wideleg jeans, Crocs (ugh!), and all the other trends for this season. But to my surprise, they were all wearing what I was wearing; skinny jeans, Uggs, and all last season's trends. Obviously new, but according to latest news, it was outdated. Why was my small, yet wealthy town not affected by the season's reports? I am totally confused. (link)
Not to be mean, but why does it really matter? I mean, they're probably just wearing what they want to. I don't understand why you care.
