so stressed.


Question Posted Wednesday July 26 2006, 1:32 am

Hey Advicenators.

Life has gotten really hard for me over the past month or so. I met a wonderful guy, and I hung out with him a few times and we're crazy about each other, unfortunetly my parents won't let me see him anymore. They forbid it, and it's awful. I can talk to him on the phone. He's like the one person I can easily tell anything & it's just sad because I feel so close to him, yet; I'm not close to him in the slightest.

Also, I really wanted to go back to my hometown, I live like 30 hours away from where I used to live, and I wanted so much to go back & visit, this summer - it would've been exactly a year since I moved away. I built my hopes up ever since January 2006 thinking I'd be going home for a few days to visit my friends, and then I asked if I could & my mom said, I'm too young to travel alone. When I've traveled on planes by myself A LOT, even alone.

Everything's just gotten so confusing and hard & I'm like always crying, it's so weird. I'm usually a really happy person, and I'm cheerful & such, but I have all these worries carried around, and I just want them to go away.

I've been soo much more then depressed lately. I don't know how to put this into a question. But, if anyone had any advice for my situation, it'd be greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much. :[

Hey,
Alot of people have this character , in which they are mostly cheerful and happy and life is usually good with only a few problems. And other people who have messed up lives, come to envy the others for being cheerful or happy. But they were wrong. We are all the same,we have moments where we laugh and smile and have loads of fun, and times when we fall down on our knees and cry out in the greatest voice" i have fallen down, and i just can't go on'. But its usually just moments that come and go, its actually always like that.Because you can't expect a person to have a perfect life, because no one is perfect and no one's life is perfect.
Now i have learnt that you have fallen in love with someone who loves you and cares for you and listens to you when you are feeling down. But then your family forbade you from talking to him. How unreasonable? why don't you try to sit and talk about this with them. And tell them how you love him and how you like talking to him and how you are so depressed because you really miss him and want to be with him. They are your parents and they could understand you.
And about going back to your hometown, and that your parents disagreed again, then maybe they are just busy these days or worked up or tired, and thats why they keep turning everything down. And all you need is to give everything sometime, and everything will fall in place.
And believe me when i say that i know exactly how it feels when you just keep on crying and feeling depressed and how you are really stressed out. But when these times and moments come, we have to deal with them, because if we don't and if we just run away from our problems, then we are just nothing but cowards and we will never be able to do anything in out lives. But i know that you aren't and i know that you are a good person, and that you can cope with whats going on around you. So hold on and try to cheer yourself up a little, and go out with friends and talk on the phone and watch tv and do anything that gives you pleasure and makes you happy.And trust me, things will be okay.
Finally, if you need any other advice or help or if you have any problems, troubles, worries or concerns, then please be free to contact me.

You should go out and see this guy that you like. Believe me, every teenager does things with their friends when their parents tell them not to. Just say you're going to the movies with so-and-so (and you should actually have so-and-so meet you there just in case your mom wants to make sure), have the guy hide inside, and then just meet up with him. Don't worry about disobeying your parents. They think they know everything and that they're protecting us, but if you know deep down that they aren't being reasonable, then don't listen.

About going to your hometown, there really isn't anything you can do. Maybe you can ask for a round-trip ticket to and from your hometown for your birthday or Christmas. Start bringing up your old friends to your parents to show them that you miss your friends. Or ask your friends to visit you! =)

Don't be upset. There's nothing really drastic going on, and these problems can easily be handled. Stay positive.
