im so unhappy. i dont really know why, people just bring me down with stupidity and selfishness. i guess mostly just teenage problems, im just afraid this unhappiness is going to get to far. ive picked up smoking, and drinking, and popping pills, just to feel better. (no cutting or anything i think thats rediculous) but i guess my question is, what do i do to make myself happier. what can i say to myself or do for myself without having to go to a doctor because im another one of the millions of kids with "depression"? 17/f thanks ahead of time

Social Anxiety
Posted Tuesday October 11 2005, 8:44 pm
I'm 15 and I think I have social anxiety disorder. My parents keep urging me to get help from a counsellor.. but I can't. It's really pathetic but for me the idea of having to sit in a room with a total stranger and answer questions or something is pure torture. I want to get help but how can anyone help me when I can't speak to people?

my life is a mess!
Posted Thursday October 6 2005, 6:27 pm
ok so here's the deal, i'm fourteen years old, never been kissed, never had a boyfriend, i'm trying to find my way around in this world. i consider myself "emo" but i guess some other people don't think that. i sometimes get called a poser. i'm very extremely quiet in school and around people i don't know. sometimes i just feel invisible like nobody evens cares about me and i hate it. i don't cut or anything so i guess that's good. my life is not totally miserable, sometimes i exaggerate. i'm actually pretty blessed you could say (in some ways more than others) 2 years ago my parents got seperated. that i guess led to my over-eating. i weighed about 179 last year. thank god my weight did go down! but i'm still not thin. sometimes ...

Me Against the World
Posted Tuesday October 4 2005, 11:11 pm
I feel so alone right now. Right now, it's like everyone is against me. I feel like everyone hates me. My volleyball coaches took me out of the starting lineup and are acting angry. My parents are angry at me. I feel like they are all against me. Am I really that hard to get along with? I don't understand. I drank toilet bowl cleaner today because I felt so bad. It didn't really do anything except burn my throat really badly. No puking or anything though. I know I probably need help, but I don't know where to go. I want to talk to a professional so badly, but who can I ask for help? I don't have any money (I'm only 17 with no job), so I can't pay for one myself. My parents would just tell me to suck it up if I told them. They don't understand. What can I do?

depressed?
Posted Tuesday October 4 2005, 9:17 pm
sometimes, even if i'm having a good day and everything, i just feel depressed. i feel like no one likes me. then i think that i should get really skinny (why? i have no idea!) i just think... tomorrow i'm going to wake up at 5, run, exercise, and shower... (and stuff like that) and so i'd get really skinny... (weird, i know) and other times i *think* about sutting my wrists, i never have and i'm scared... so do i have a case of depression???

i don't understand what's going on anymore
Posted Sunday October 2 2005, 4:24 pm
i have cryed myself to sleep for the past 2 years EVERY single night. i cry out of nowhere and get upset for ansolutely no reason at all (that i know of) no matter how hard i try to be i'm barely ever happy. i don't bother people about this because i don't even know what's going on so why tell them unless i know what it's about. i used to cut and i've counted 51 noticable scars from it but i've stopped my old habits for my boyfriend. i'm not one of those people who like to bother others about my life and my problems because i don't like having people constantly worry about me or think that somethings going on in my personal life. there are some people i can talk to about this but they would worry and i can't stand it because i dont want to ...

Death.
Posted Sunday October 2 2005, 12:36 am
My cousin's best friend recently just died about 4 days ago. She's having a rough time because they grew up together and were extremely close. I don't know what to do, besides be there for her. It's kind of hard when she lives in Boston, though. Anyway, since she's having a rough time she got back into heavy drugs and began to cut herself, again. I'm trying to make her realize that she has to stop all this and face the fact that he's died and try to move on.. without having to cut/do drugs just to get her happy. I'm trying to get her to remind the good times they shared, but it's not working. What should I do with this problem? Any ideas?

ADHD
Posted Thursday September 29 2005, 8:08 pm
I'm 13/f in the 7th grade
For a while, I've been having a real hard time paying attention. I get really bored easily, and I fidget a lot, I'm really slow (physically), and I get lethargic a lot. and I'm VERRRY disorganized. My school learning specialist said that there's a possibility of me having ADHD. but when I was little, I was always full of energy. Usually ADHD shows up in kids when they're little. Does my case sound like ADHD???
