Question Posted Saturday December 9 2006, 11:37 pm
dennis i dont know what to do. im a freshman and this year everything just seems to happen and i just have to find a way to deal with it. my parents put so much pressure on me and whenever i try to talk to them they refuse to listen. their expectations are too high and when i tell them im having a hard time they just tell me im online too much or on the phone too much. the pressure of friends and everything is taking its toll too. i hate the way i look because it seems like all my friends are gorgeous and im the ugly one in the crowd and i hate it. i just want to be good enough and be able to reach the expectations that people set for me so someone will just be proud of me for once. in the past ive resorted to unsafe things to dealing with all this and i dont want to go back to it.
help?

Your Parents; They Might Be Hard On You With Their Expectations Because They Want You To Do Good. Even Though You Might Be Telling Them About Everything Going On, It Seems Like They Arent Seeing Other Problems That You Need To Take Care Of. One Thing Can Effect Everything! If You Havent Tried This, Ask Them To Have An Important Talk With You And Tell Them How You Feel. As For Your Friends, Try Not To Get To Involved With Their Problems Even If They Are Tell Them You Are Having Problems Of Your Own. If They Ask Talk To Them About It And They Could Help Alot. As For Looks, Dont Judge Yourself And Think That, They Are Your Friends And Shouldnt Judge On Looks Either. Dont Have People Set Expectations For You, Be Yourself! Set Goals For Yourself If You Want To Change The Way You Look Or Do Better. Take It One Step At A Time, And Even If Things Look Crappy To You Right Now, They Will Get Better! But Whatever You Do, Dont Do ANYTHING To Harm Yourself! It's Purely Stupid And Your Only Hurting Yourslef Causing More Problems. Hang In There, And If You Ever Need Someone To Talk To, Im Here :)
