Your decisions, your responses, your actions, your attitude: they dictate so much about the happiness, contendedness, and success of your own life. If your own actions aim to throw you down (illegal activities- whether in general of for minors- which follow you whether you're caught or not ), and the actions and circumstances of those around you (divorce, rape, cancer) are also working to destroy you, then all you've got left are the gestures of others who try to help as best they can (like the person who told the guidance counselor at school). And those people will only try to help for so long because eventually they will either 1) see that you're rejecting their help or 2) see you're beginning to help yourself so they can now fall back into the role of a supportive friend rather than one of doing damage control.
Alex may be able to relate, but that's a sign that he needs help too because that's a hard life to juggle with school, friends, depression, etc., so having something in common that only brings you down isn't going to do either of you any good towards bringing you up.
Surrounding yourself with people who will hold you accountable for you actions, support you in doing those things you know to be best, and encourage you in all good things is, about the best thing you can do for yourself right now. And in the beginning it will probably suck in many ways (ex. the guidance counselor is required by law to notify certain folks when they know a student is endangering their own life, the lives of others, or engaging in illegal activities). But working with those who are genuinely trying to help you (as opposed to the sappy brain-washing shrink types) will make it suck a lot less and for a lot shorter amount of time. And the results will be as dramatic as you will let them be.
You're already moving in that direction- let your momentum for making the choices that are smartest for you carry you even further!! [ Behnnie's advice column | Ask Behnnie A Question ]

FEEL FREE TO ASK ME ANYTHING =)
JUST PUT IN THE SUBJECT LINE: ADVICE
No, dont be mad at her she was just trying to help. And if people are bothering u tell them that you rather not talk about that, its something personal and you would perfer if they would not ask anymore. My mom has depression, it runs in her side of the family, she is not taking any drugs anymore because she says that you dont need them. You sound like you have depression because you have gone threw alot. I suggest to get involved in things, volunteer, join a club. Do something you like to do and have not done in a long time, it will make you feel alot better.
