economy and life
Posted Thursday August 6 2009, 10:37 pm
I really thought I could handle myself. I didnt think I would resort to writing this to all of you here on advicenators. My dad found out from a source that he is going to be fired, not because of himself as a worker, because he is an excellent worker (he works in buisness in an office.) but his whole unit is being fired because of the economy, and companies cant offord to pay salaries anymore. Im a daughter in a family of 6, im 17, and Im American, and caucasian. It sounds minor, but its not. I feel horrible, my family feels horrible, my dad feels the worst of all. My mom has never had to work before because my dad provided, but a little while ago she got a job, thank god. But she only makes a quarter of what my dad makes. I just dont know...

Depression?
Posted Tuesday August 4 2009, 4:12 am
Firstly, I am 15 and female. And my life is good right now, so I don't know why I would be sad but, anyways, this is my problem (please read, I know its long)...

First was 7th grade, I was feeling lonely and depressed, next would've been the end of 8th grade, and now I am feeling the same in 10th grade.
It has come VERY sudden, A few weeks ago I was happy, now I have cried my self to sleep, held back tears when sad about nothing, hated my self and hated...

Advice for a doormat who got bullied by the help
Posted Saturday August 1 2009, 12:38 am
I have a "weak personality" as my parents have asked me to change. I get bullied and manipulated easily. In a group of friends, I easily turn into a butt of all jokes. I'm easy. I'm too nice, laid-back, and not very confrontational unless pushed too far.
I'm so weak that I even let a bitchy illegal female servant (under the employment of my aunt and the subject of my anger towards myself) boss me around and got me into trouble for 2 years. Until she got what she deserved when she got caught by immigration.
After her arrest last week, I figured it was the last straw for me. During those 2 years I couldn't fight her. She was illegal and under the employ of a relative. If I reported her, she would've bac...

Do I Have A Mental Illness?
Posted Monday July 27 2009, 1:43 am
I'm almost 16, and I'm a female.
I'm not sure, but I think I may have a mental illness. I feel like my emotions don't match the situation they are meant for - if someone gives me bad news, such as someone's sick, or someone close to them just died, I feel like laughing or smiling.
I don't cry at funerals, and I don't feel openly sad when someone dies. If the emotion I display is sadness, I can't cry in front of people; I always try to find a quiet place to cry by myself. I only cry around twice a year, give or take a few times.
I get angry at my family a lot to the point where I sit in my room for a large portion of the day during the summer unless I go to work or hang out with my friends. I feel...

Okay so basicly my problem is sometimes I cant stop thinking and practicly torturing myself over things that have happend in the past,I
never used to be like this so I dont know why its come on all of a sudden.
For example id be lying in bed and I would think of something embarassing that happend and just beat myself up about it.

this is driving me crazy,and it makes me super paronied about stuff that has more then likely been forgotten.
like last night i was thinking about this one time i was making out with this guy,and I convinced myself i did something wrong (because after that we stopped hooking up (it wasnt sex related btw) but I kept coming u...

Cheer Someone Up: Help a Friend to Cope with Her Grandmother's Death
Posted Wednesday July 22 2009, 5:49 am
Hello,
My good friend's grandmother has just passed away and she seems to be taking it quite hard, she cried a lot, too. Just a while ago, I came to her house and attempted to comfort her, but then I ended up sit down for almost two hours listening to her while she told me stories about her and her grandmother while she was still alive.
I am not a very good comforter so I didn't talk much then, not to mention that I know little about her grandmother. I just sat there and listen and occasionally say one or two sentences. I feel kind of . . . useless and awkward.
So do you have any advice as to what to say or what to give her to cheer her up? It's kind of awkward to just listen the entire time, y...

How can I be more optimistic?
Posted Sunday July 19 2009, 9:46 pm
I noticed how my friend is so positive about things. She is always looking at the bright side and I realize that I hardly ever do! I'm always ready for failure while she's alway saying things like, "Well, we didn't win but we did our best and that is a great feeling!" I'd like to be more like that. It sounds like a great way to be, really...just more hopeful and happier with the outcomes we're given when we put our best foot forward, you know?
Anyway, how do I start being more optimistic? Are there tips or something?

Self esteem...

(I'm going into 9th grade this fall)
So basically I've never had good self esteem, but lately it's really plummeted. I feel like I'm weird or something...like I act really...weird. I don't know how to describe it. Like one of the weird kids in school. I've always wondered if I was...but I have lots of friends and everything...some are kind of weird and some aren't, but I didn't think they rubbed off on me. But I've been noticing lately...over the summer, I've been doing nothing...hanging out with people once every few weeks. But I had a sleepover with my best friend (who's friends with lots of popular people) and we were like taking turns on the Wii and Facebook and everything and I realised I kept saying things l...

I lost my virginity the night before new years eve...
Posted Saturday July 18 2009, 9:10 am
I'm 24 and female and I lost my virginity to a guy that I fancy the pants off! It wasn't at all what i expected and I was drunk and so was he and it was just...well, not that great.
I saw him last night and had to speak to him beacuse I just don't know how to feel about the whole thing and his words went a little something like this: "Well I had fun it was a laugh" and I was like "pardon and what now?"...He actually doesn't give a shit about me and I can't believe I waited that long to lose my virginity and it ended up being with an absolute CUNT! I've cried constantly for the whole entire day and I can't eat cos I feel sick. How long does it take to get over this? I hate him. He's ruined everything :(
Thanks

What's Wrong With Me?
Posted Wednesday July 15 2009, 4:43 pm
I'm 17/f and can't take my life anymore. There are certain things that have happened to me that are not the end of the world. I don't want to explain these things in full detail but I'll tell you one: I got a fairly good score on one of my ap exams and an absolutely horrible score on another.
The one that I got the horrible score for was the class that I worked the hardest for the entire year. There are certain things that just absolutely haunt me. Not to be dramatic, but they don't just bother me or annoy me, they haunt me. You would think something like exam grades that colleges don't really even care about wouldn't be the end of the world, but for some reason, when I would think about my potential score on the ap and when I think...
