i was grounded about a week ago for staying out waaaaaay too late. my parents are a little strict, so they took this seriously and grounded me for a month. i cant use my phone or get online, but i can still play sims and solitaire.
but i cant see my boyfriend. and i get really depressed when i cant see him because hes the only thing keeping me living. im a very depressed person, but now its worse than ever. i want nothing more than to kill myself immidiately. it uses all of my energy just to keep a happy face on in front of my family. when im not around anybody ive completely broken down and cry myself to sleep every night. this has been going on for 3 or 4 days. im wiped out and as pessimistic as i can get and just a total mess. im sick of this.
can someone tell me what to do?...at least until im ungrounded and get to see my boyfriend again?

wow it was really hard, and i was depressed. so i can relate. I'm actually grounded right now too for sneaking out and going to a rave :O. well i know there's probably not a lot i can say to make you feel better but first of all, you need to realize that hard times come and go.. we all go through hard times in our life. but we cant let it all get to us. i know what it feels like to really not even want to live anymore.. things feel like they'll never get better sometimes. but thing that helped me get through it the most was having someone to talk to. its nice to have someone who can listen, and give advice without judging. so find someone who you trust with your life, and can talk to freely. this will help get a lot off your chest. trust me. when you keep it all inside.. it eventually boils to the top and you completely break down. 2nd try as best you can not to be alone. try to surround yourself with people. and when you want to cry, cry. there's no reason to hold it in. sometimes we just need to cry. so let it out. so this bf you have i hope is supporting you through all of this.. that can help a lot to have someone you love and trust there to help you. i don't exactly know your situation with your boyfriend (whether you see him at school etc.) so i don't have a lot advice on that aspect yet. if you let me know a little more i'd be glad to share any thoughts of what to do... i hope this helps. hang in there, and please let me know how your doing. i've been there before, and it was seriously the lowest point in my life. i didn't have someone there for me.. so if i can be there for you, i'd love too. so good luck, and keep me posted.
ok. so i got your feedback, and i'm adding on...
so u said right now you can't see your bf at all. so the first thing you need to do is earn your parents trust back. it will take some time, but as soon as you get that back they will be more willing to let you talk to him etc. and another thing i would do.. this may be hard. but i'd apologize to his parents. it will gain their respect for you. do the same with your parents if you haven't already. its a long process, but you'll be able to see him sooner if you just follow the rules and be responsible for a while. i know its tough, but this is one of those things where you just have to tough it out. hope this helps. if you have another question, don't hesitate to ask =] [ Genesis17's advice column | Ask Genesis17 A Question ]
