stress!
Posted Wednesday April 19 2006, 7:27 pm
lately, i've been under a lot of stress. most of the pressure is coming from my parents. knowing the fact that there is no room for mistakes in my parents eyes pretty much explains it. and lets put it this way: they take away my cell phone if i get a B on my report card. not only are they juicing me academically, but sports are a big factor too.
every week day, from 2:30 (end of school) to 5:30 in the evening, im property of the school track team. i know its fantastic for my health but 3 hours of pure running? not my idea of a fun sport. plus it makes me go home every night with a sore, sweaty, and tired body. it has taken away basically everyday that i used to hang out with my friends also.
im one of the main ...

Flashbacks
Posted Tuesday April 18 2006, 5:12 pm
So im in 14 now and when i was 11 and when i was 6 i was rapped, by the same guy. I used to be really paranoid when i was with guys. Now i have a boyfriend and whenever we are doing anything, like kissing ill get really paranoid and flip out because i get flashbacks from when i was 11 and 6. He was only in jail for 2 years because the judge only knew about it when i was 6. I'm really nervous because i think my boyfriend thinks that i think hes like, disgusting or somthing. I dont know if i want to tell him about what happened to me..so what should i do(about the flashbacks && my boyfriend)?

Is this normal?-I'll rate
Posted Monday April 17 2006, 3:24 pm
Is it normal to feel like cutting, or drinking or using self-destructive behavior after a break-up? I can't get over someone I've been with for over two years and he broke it off. I feel like hurting myself, is there something wrong?

Stress relievers
Posted Monday April 17 2006, 3:05 pm
I take really advanced classes in school, I have been dealing with a ton of drama lately, and I have been worrying a lot about my prom coming up soon. So I have been REALLY stressed. I want to know does anyone have any type of stress relievers that you don't have to buy? If so it would be greatly appreciated.

being depressed by others
Posted Thursday April 13 2006, 7:35 pm
I am 14 and all my friends are the same age. (we are not punk rock or emo people, just so you know). A lot of my friends tell me sad things or problems in their lives. (boyfriend problems, cutter problems, ect.). Whenever I hear about this stuff I usually don't care much, it's sadly just not in my character. But when I get home I'll do all the normal stuff I normally do, but I'll end up crying for no reason. I'll feel horrible inside but I won't know why.
So what my question is: How can I make my enviorment less negative other than getting new friends? I can't tell them that they can't tell me their problems. If I did then they would be keeping their problems inside them, and that would be giving my depression problem to them.

Am I Too Young For This?
Posted Thursday April 13 2006, 12:49 pm
My memory isn't what is used to be. I'm a female and only seventeen years old.
My memory used to be impeccable, and I could recall anything and everything. I've forgotten many little facts of my life. I once knew the whole family's birthdays; some family members I'd never even met. I have forgotten them now. With my past boyfriends I knew every little detail about them, their history, and even their parent's lives and I only needed to hear it once to remember it. And now with my new man, I know nothing about him. We've talked about it alllll on many different occassions, but no matter how many times he tells me about himself... I can't remember. I still forget his birthday, and it's been a year since we got to...

16/f unhealthy crush.
Posted Wednesday April 12 2006, 11:41 pm
I have a very unhealthy crush on my coach. He is so gorgeous and awesome and I can't help but like him. He always talks to me and has told me if it wasn't against the rules he would give me hugs. Whenever I'm in class he waves through the window at me and smiles. At lunch we always talk when he's on his way to the gym and he says he misses having me in class. He's only 10 years older than me and I think about him constantly. I've had dreams about him where we get married and stuff like that. I need to get over him. How can I? and is it normal that he acts like that?

weird dream

sorry if its long but i rate high
ok about 2 nights ago, i had a dream that really scared the hell out of me. I dont know what it means so i was hoping someone here could help me. I dreamt that i was picking up my little brother from school with my mom. We were on the end of my block when i looked behind me and there was a man running towards us with a knife in his hand, i could see the blade of the knife in great detail, it was pointy and very jagged. After a minute i realized he was running towards me becuase he was looking right at my eyes. He was wearign a black t-shirt and wasnt skinny but not fat, a little heavyset. He looked hispanic sort of. I couldnt move though, or at least i didnt move. He finally reached ...

Despairing
Posted Saturday April 8 2006, 8:46 pm
Can anyone on here tell me they know the feeling of absolute despair? That's what I've been going through for the past several months. The past week has been really bad. I haven't been able to think, to focus, to sleep, even to talk is hard because I can't seem to put words behind it. Even my schoolwork is suffering. In my English class for an in-class essay, I couldn't write it. I just couldn't get past the prompt "Choose a novel or play in which a character experiences a point of no return in his life, where his life will never be the same again, and explain its impact on the character." I just couldn't write about that because it so closely paralelled what I'm going through right now.
Please don't think I'm just some 13...

Baby and Ex-boyfriend
Posted Friday April 7 2006, 9:19 pm
I met a guy last year, and we started going out. Everything was going okay until I missed my period. I told him, and he seemed cool about it, said that if I were pregnant, he would be there for me and everything. A few months passed by before I found out I really was pregnant.
By that time, he had started talking to another girl, and had almost completely left me alone, knowing that I could be having his child. He never called anymore, and he had started talking to a boy I'll call Wayne. After seeing me try to tell my boyfriend about the situation, Wayne convinced him that I wasn't pregnant, and I was lying. When I started to show and people started asking my boyfriend about it, he would tell them the baby wasn't his.

Depression
Posted Friday April 7 2006, 12:03 am
I was wondering if anyone knew anything about depression, or manic depressive disorder, or what not.
I just recently started thinking i might be have depression, or some other mental disorder. After looking it up online, I think I might.
my mom takes medication, but i never knew what for, and when i asked my dad he said it was so she could "cope with life". So i'm pretty sure she has depression. And i was reading that it might be genetic.
Anyways, what i want to know is what do i do about it?
ive always wondered if I should go to a therapist just because i always have trouble dealing with my emotions.
and after looking it up, i think i might be bipolar...

i keep everything in a bottle
Posted Wednesday April 5 2006, 10:47 pm
16 and a guy. Ever since I can remember, I've always bottled up my emotions, especially my anger. That lead me into being a shy person most of the times, not all though. Because of that, I find that (and other have told me) that I'm not good at communicating with people. Especially when something bothers me, because I almost never say anything - just to avoid trouble. Here at home especially, and at school its like this. I'd really like some advice on what to do. " Just saying how I feel " is not something I'm used to.

My finger and throat have become inseparable.
Posted Saturday March 25 2006, 8:24 pm
I hate the way my body looks and I have for-pretty-much-ever. I've tried so many diets, and working out, but nothing has ever worked. the thing is, I'm really not fat. I'm just chubby. I'm 5'3 and weigh 140.
I've had an eating disorder before, and it wasn't really that bad. I was anorexic when I was younger, I finally got over it, and now I'm buimic. Now just trying to eat makes me throw up.
How bad is bulimia? And how do I get over it?
Love,
