I am sad. I don't know if it's just stupid hormones, and I'm not depressed. It just seems like my Mom yells at me a lot. It makes me really sad. It makes me seem like the only place where I'm happy is alone at home, which is rarely, or at school. It feels like nobody understands me. Sometimes it feels like nobody likes me at school either. I have some friends, but I say one thing by mistake and everyone hates me. I feel like I'm left out, like I'm in a world I hate. I keep telling lies and plastering a fake smile on my face. But I'm sick of it. I need help. Welcome to my Life by Simple Plan is my stinkin THEME SONG. It;s true. Welcome to my life.

You also write very good and express yourself beautifully. You should keep a journal, write your thoughts, write poems, write songs. It will help you to release stress and you can go back and read your thoughts and maybe figure out your emotions. You should read the psalms in the Bible. They are so comforting and you will be able to understand and get comfort from them. I will leave you sweetheart with a bible quote, and you just stay calm and know that you will be ok and that your mom loves you, you are going through a hard time. Try being her friend and let the past be the past. This is from John 15:18, "If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me before it hated you." Jesus was perfect and people hated him. He didn't let it bother him and loves us no matter what. Relax honey and your life will have ups and downs. You'll be ok. [ susieg's advice column | Ask susieg A Question ]
THINKPOSITIVE7 answered Wednesday January 28 2009, 4:43 pm: Hello,well your situation is understandable,your home life effects you greatly but you have to realize that everyone in this lives go through ups and downs,some people have a life much tougher than yours but that is not saying that your situation is not just as important. Feeling sad all the time is no good for your health and life as a whole but in your situation it is difficult not to be. I beleive your mom might be stressed ir going through her own issues at this time so in return she is taking all if her anger out on you in return. I think you guys should sit down and talk about how her constant yelling is effecting you a great deal, I doubt if she realizes and if she does not know then this will continue, talking to her may bring you closer as well and right now you need to be closer to your mom to know you have someone who cares for you in this life and understands you. Your mom will be the most likely to understand who you are because after all she lives with you, knows your many characteristivs,what you like and dislike. I know your mom cares for you but it is hard for her to show because she is probably going through alot, I admit that it is no fair for her to take her anger out on you but you are the closest and instead of talking to you about how her day was and the problem she might be having she yells at you instead,if you two build a stronger relationship this anger will turn into loving kindness. As for school,that is a difficult environment and not everyone will understand you because everyone is unique and actually many of the friends in school,the cliques do not fully understand eachother,most of those relatiobships are based on shallow conversations and nothing really specific,those relationships will fade in time. As for your "friends" they arent your friends at all,if they hate you for saying something that probably was not even that serious then they arent your real friends, your real friends know you and would never dislike you over simple words.In the whole school you might find one or two people that you could call a true friend and hang on to and that will really understand you but right now you need to foucs on you,do things you like to do things that make you happy,a sport an activity such as drawing,writting,or anything to express your feelings. The world is a beautiful place it shouldnt be something you hate but when things arent going right then it does seem that way. Try to see the good in life no matter what,being optimistic and trying to think psitive will get you throught this, it may take time but negative thoughts only cloud your mind and can cause depression and make you despise even living when living is such a beautiful thing because you have so many opportunities out there waiting for you. You will make friends in time,REAL friends but it will take time I am a Senior in High School and still dont have one real friend but I have nothing to complain about I am overall a happy person because I am happy with myself and who I am, I dont mind being alone and doing things i love such as what I am doing now giving you this advice,fiding something you love and have a passion for does wonders with your life in alot of ways. Do things you like such as watching a comedy movie.laughing always boosts the spirits.You can tell me some activities you like and I will be happy to help you come up with some ideas to cope with what you are dealing with!I hope this helped,If you have any further questions regarding this topic or any other topic for that matter do not hesitate to send me a private message I will honered to be of aid to you..The best of luck to you!Remember,thinking positive is one of the only keys to happiness!!!Rememeber you are a special person and very beautiful inside and out,You have qualtites that no one else has and you can do ANYTHING you put your mind to,No one can take away your special qualities and others will love you for what you have to offer,you have apurpose in this life just like everyone else,you may not know what it is yet but you will find it out sooner or later!I care about what you have to say and your feelings and I understand what you are going through is difficult but i know you will get through..YOU ARE AMAZING!:) :-) :-0I hope this helped,If you have any further questions regarding this topic or any other topic for that matter do not hesitate to send me a private message I will honered to be of aid to you..The best of luck to you!

triquetra answered Wednesday January 28 2009, 3:57 am: I suggest that you go and talk to your school counsellor. Trust me, I went when I was down and he really did help me and do you know what he did to help? Nothing. He just let me talk everything which was on my mind and helped me to understand as to why I was feeling the way which I was and I felt like as if somebody did care as to what I was going through when I thought that nobody would listen, and best of all, they're free and confidential. After those sessions, I really felt confident because he supported me in the things which I did and helped me through in his own special way.
I would make up lies just to get through a tough period and pretending that I was ok and I even had a theme song to my own life, and it was called 'Can't Take That Away' by Mariah Carey and it really did help me not to let anybody say things which could get to me because at the end of the day, what depends upon your happiness is yourself and how you let others get to you.
