I do NOT share food, EVARZ. >:L ... Is this normal?


Posted Thursday December 29 2011, 5:45 pm

17/f All right so, I HAAAAATE sharing food. Loathe it. Absolutely drives me up the wall! But, I am a female. I know it's all right if men eat a lot. I mean, they're dudes, eating is what they do. But, I'm a lady! A lot of my friends know full well to NEVER touch my plate. I've bitten a friend's hand before for stealing a handful of popcorn... XD But there are acquaintances of mine, who don't know me as well, who are known for mooching. As in, if you have food, they will beg like starving dogs. You may be able to guess, but moochers are my worst enemies. So to not be hypocritical, I never mooch or beg.

But, I always see girls sharing food with each other and laughing, and enjoying themselves. Or people sharing with their boyf...

I feel like giving up on good things.


Posted Thursday December 29 2011, 4:44 pm

I'm M/16. I feel l like I should give up on my plans and ideas for life. There is no point in trying to reach my goals. It seems like most of the people I know are fake, friends, girls I've liked, even my parents. At this point all I do is stay home and play games, and l'm starting to lose interest in games just like everything else. Then I walk around pretending everything is okay. I wasn't always like this. My grades have been dropping too. I've lost will power & motivation, I'm stuck. I try to make progress enjoy my life, but it seems like no one cares and no one understands. Am I too naive? It seems like there's no such thing as "Normal Life" It seems like I have no meaning, I have no life. I regret stupid little things. I...

Feeling lost/struggling to find meaning


Posted Friday December 23 2011, 11:41 am

I was originally diagnosed with Depression a couple of years ago and had some therapy. In April this year I was prescribed antidepressants and my doctor upped my dose in November. I had a panic attack and a physiatric nurse told me that he thought it was unlikely that I was depressed and more likely that I had Anxiety Disorder. I went back to my doctor and she recommended that I continue taking the antidepressants and start a course of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in January.

Since then I have really been struggling to find any meaning or enjoyment in life. I'm feeling very lost and almost like I'm not really involved in my own life. I no longer feel sad all the time, just a constant sense of numbness and indifference.

18/female

Okay so i really dont know what i am asking so i'll just lay it all out then you can respond.
This whole thing is about cutting. when i was younger like 14-16 i was addicted to it. I'm 18 now and in a completely different place in my life, however i've recently been getting the urge to do it again. i dont know why. i'm known as extremely happy and bubbly and am not depressed in the slightest. i have the average stresses as a senior who is trying to get into college but thats mainly it. but when i get urges and want to do it i hate myself for it, i feel crazy, stupid and disgusted with myself because thats not who i am and its weird to want to physically hurt myself and i dont feel like myself.i cant tell anyo...

PLEASE READ,,should i just use it?


Posted Friday December 16 2011, 4:24 pm

basically ive been in therapy for about 2 years. My parents got divorced and im 14. i dont take medication. therapy has helped me alot. it was not just the divorce, becasue i wanted them to get divorce, but it was the way it went down. i basically got in the middle. and i find now im really awkward and lazy and tired around my friends. but when i go to parties and get dressed up and stuff and have coke (like coka cola) i feel really hyper and confident. and i was always confident and tough and now im like the opposite. having confidence is the main thing for me to regain. i know its in me, but im scared, or intimied by my peers. its ironic because thats how i used to make other girls or people feel around me becase i was so popular and con...

Posted Monday December 12 2011, 8:00 pm

Hi guys, i'm in a bit of a rut. I used to be friends with this one guy and one day in the spring time he got mad at me for a reason i do not remember, but his friend told me that if i sent him a nude picture he would get this guy to speak to me. so after two hours of him trying to convince me to i finally i did. i am not proud of it. but now that it is almost winter the picture got posted on facebook. (From my old friend, not his friend) He keeps calling me from blocked restricted numbers and just whistles in the phone. A few months ago he called and whistled and than said some very inappropriate thing to me. And a few weeks ago someone randomly pulled up to my house at about 3 in the morning and started screaming things out the window. my ...

Depressed Sophomore


Posted Saturday December 10 2011, 2:33 pm

im 15 years old and I switched from a private school to a public school in the middle of the year because of bullying. I've been at my new school for about a month and a half at first things were alright but now i often skip my classes and my grades are really low, and I sleep A LOT. At least in my other school I had better grades even if I was bullied and at least I had some friends, I do try to get good grades but when i check them they are D's and F's. I'm wondering if I should switch back to my old school but I'm not sure because my parents worked really hard to get me out of that school and into my new one. Its so hard for me to get out of bed in the morning because it feels like there's nothing to look forward to and I've told my cou...

Emotions and me


Posted Thursday December 8 2011, 11:21 am

I have been a boy who was always loved by his family. I grew up with a desire that one day i will achieve the wildest of my dreams. I am heavily gifted with intuition. It has been my best buddy to tell me about the pros and cons.

I fell in deep love with a girl when i was 25, and it ended in a heartbreak for me. After that i forgot to be really happy or enjoy. My emotions are dead now, i dont feel anything for anyone, not even for my ownself.

I have had great success in my professional life and i have started to buy things which i dreamed of in my childhood. But these things don't even bring a smile on my face. I pretend to be happy and sad as well, but the truth is that i am so rigid now, that i don't feel a...

Posted Wednesday December 7 2011, 10:59 am

Ok sorry if this is a long question ahah~ I just need a second opinion or whatever.

F/15.

Ok I have a really hard time concentrating both at home and at school. Im like ill get distracted by little tiny things it's unbelievable. My most stupid one was a fly caught in a light and I decided it was a prisoner so I was being daft laughing at it. I sometimes zone out and when i zone back in ill be be like "woah the teacher has been talking" or it's like she/he is talking a totally different language than me. My only good grade is in English where I am on a B and predicted an A. That's because I know what I'm doing. All my other lessons im on D's and under. It's really bad. I've had phone calls home and my ...

Insecurity - can't handle negative comments.


Posted Wednesday December 7 2011, 12:11 am

I am someone that gets a lot of attention. People constantly compliment my looks. And most of the time I feel like I feel good about my appearance. I'm a size 8, blonde, relatively tall.

But I can't handle negative comments, ever. I defended a friend of mine tonight, and this guy says my legs are like tree stumps or something random like that.

How is it that one tiny negative comment, the first I've had in forever, can undo so much positive reinforcement? Suddenly it feels like some kind of comfirmation that yes - it's all a lie. I'm average, I'm not attractive, I'm not skinny enough and I want to change everything about myself.

Most of the time I feel like I have good self esteem. But I used t...

Lack of motivation/depression


Posted Tuesday December 6 2011, 11:54 am

I was diagnosed with a personality disorder when I was young, so it explains the eccentric behavior I always had. This disorder keeps me from being able to interpret and express my feelings correctly; it caused me to learn to be impartial and apathetic so that it reduces the chance of me lashing out in a rage of fury. Trust me, when I get angry, people get hurt. The apathy shrinks my friend bank. I see a psychiatrist, but he doesn't help, rather doesn't know how to respond to my situation. It also causes me to lose my motivation for, well, everything. I want it back. It depresses me because I can't do things without a motive. Also, I isolate myself to protect others. Is this healthy? I refuse to succumb to my disorder, but I feel as if there's nothing else I can do for myself.
