*hugs* thats what i thought i needed when i was that way. Being in the dumps can really suck! I HIGHLY suggest getting a journle if you're shy and write down your feelings. Also poetry helps blow off a lot of steam. Im so sorry to hear about this. I know what it feels like.

Hope i helped!

oh my gosh it sounds like you are depressed. i have depression. it can affect your whole like, it even makes you feel like to cry all the time for no reason and it makes you irritated alot and you are always sad no matter what usually. i went to my doctor and he gave me medicene for me. it compleyly changed my life around! im not neary as sad anymore and im not as tired and dont really get irriated anymore. depression sometimes makes you tired. i really think that you should go to the doctor. tell him about how you are feeling and that you think that you have depression. they treat depression with medicene, concealing, or both. and make sure that if he gived you medicene, tell him that you dont want something that is really strong, can make you dizzy, or has a ton of side effects. i use a low dose of zoloft and it works so good for me. your friend i think was just trying to tell you that it is really bad to think of your self that way even though you probably cannot help it. and if he is still being a jerk than dump him. you shouldnt stick around with him if he treats you like dirt and makes you unhappy. and i have one more tip: do something that makes you happy! also hang around with people that make you feel good about your self and who love you; dont hang around with people that make you feel miserable. if you need any more help just ask me! hope i helped you alot and i REALLY REALLY hope that you feel better!!!

hey hun you sound just like i used to be but dont worry about anything do things that make you happy or used to make you happy ...if you dont like the way you look try and make your self look the way you want to but i think you know your bestfriend was just sayin how he cant believe you would think that way about yourself....just sit down and talk to him tell him that when he says that stuff it comes out a different way then he means it...
hope i helped!!

maybe your bestfriend didn't mean to insult you but he was trying to tell you that your a good person and theres no reason to feel the way you do, but when he said it,it probaly sounded like he was attacking you. you should go to counseling or something because maybe you have depression. good luck

You sound like one of my best freinds....shes constantly depressed.. but you know what its part of being a teenager this wont be your frist time and it wont be your last. YOu need to go out and have fun be careless about shit you only love once. Do you really wanna get old and ask yourself what did i do as a teenager that was memorable? then u rememebering nothing? I didnt think so so just put everythin behind u and yes tehre will be people out there who make fun of u but ignore it u live how u wanna live not by what others see of u...hope i helped let me know how everything goes.
