i really do need help
Posted Tuesday September 27 2005, 8:30 pm
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'...

You don't know what I'm feeling right now!!!
Posted Friday September 23 2005, 3:23 pm
I'm sooooo pissed off at the world right now!!! I can't talk to anyone about anything! Nobody knows how I feel... or what I'm going through... Sorry if some of this doesn't make sense, I'm waaaaay too frusturated to think!!!
13/m I'm going through puberty, I know it. Nothing physical yet. I'm still short. My voice is still insanely soprano. I don't have any acne yet. No facial hair. But I'm feeling everything mental. I'm getting smarter, I must be since I've been suddenly getting better at chess. And I'm experiencing every one of these what I like to call "true emotions": from love to infatuation, from rejection to jealousy, I'm feeling it all. I can't even remember everything else, I'm so distraught!

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. ...

Do I have anorexia?
Posted Wednesday September 21 2005, 12:21 am
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!

making up
Posted Tuesday September 20 2005, 9:07 pm
I am always getting myself in incredibly embarassing situations. Not like "farting in public" or anything like that, more like a really bad rumor has been spread about me. Or I accidentally say something bad in class and I'm worried about what the teacher thinks. Recently, my dad said something really embarassing (something serious) about me to my English teacher, and it makes me cringe with worry. Nowadays, I spend all of my free time thinking that I've "blown it" with someone I know and stressed that I've ruined a connection with someone because of something that I accidentally said or did. I lose sleep over it. I feel terrible. I'm 13/f. What can I do? How can I make amends? Pleaaaase don't give me a smart-ass answer ...

asking my parents for help...
Posted Friday September 16 2005, 6:40 pm
ok, my question is kind of stupid, but i could really use some help.
for the record, im 15/f (soon to be 16)
i honestly, dont want to be this way, and i am not at all looking for attention, but i honestly do believe i am suffering from a few mental-illnesses, depression, OCD, paranoia, and schizophrenia.
i have done a little bit of research on all of these problems, and i seem to fit it pretty well.
i want to tell my mom, so i can get help, but i am afraid she wont believe me, because she never believes me when i talk about things like this.
neither does my father, a few years ago i even said i was going to kill myself and they both responded with "yeah, ok, whatever"

OCD...
Posted Friday September 16 2005, 4:56 pm
Hello! My name is Steven, and I have a small issue. I have realised that I have OCD.
While I don't wash my hands for 3 hours or make sure everything is perfect, I am finding that I have a lot of tendancies to do such things. One thing that I find doing is trying to make sure that everything is even. My socks must be all the way up, and at the same level, or they must be adjusted. My books must be at the same angle to the floor... My Music stand must always be closer to the window than my bookbag, etc.
It wasn't until last Friday that I realised I might have it. I was in Gym, and we did some weird hand motion thingy. It involved banging hands on the seats, and it had about 3 more left hand slams than right hand slams. So, I sl...

rememberance
Posted Tuesday September 13 2005, 10:35 pm
I have problems remembering things. Here are some examples:
*for World history we had to make folder covers and had to label it "world history" but i forgot that it was world history so i put "world geography."
*i was talking to my grandma one time and i told her "ill never forget that time when..." and then literally 2 minutes later I forgot about it and I couldn't think of it.
*if I'm writing down a sentence from a book I have to look at the book every 2 words because i forget.
*In math or history I forget what happens or how to do a problem so when it comes to test time I don't do so well(i do good in math but HORRIBLE in history.)
those were just SOME things. What's wrong with me and is there any way to fix this??
