I feel like giving up on good things.


Question Posted Thursday December 29 2011, 4:44 pm

I'm M/16. I feel l like I should give up on my plans and ideas for life. There is no point in trying to reach my goals. It seems like most of the people I know are fake, friends, girls I've liked, even my parents. At this point all I do is stay home and play games, and l'm starting to lose interest in games just like everything else. Then I walk around pretending everything is okay. I wasn't always like this. My grades have been dropping too. I've lost will power & motivation, I'm stuck. I try to make progress enjoy my life, but it seems like no one cares and no one understands. Am I too naive? It seems like there's no such thing as "Normal Life" It seems like I have no meaning, I have no life. I regret stupid little things. I repeat the same mistakes. Its like people have no feelings. I don't exist to anyone, I'm not important to anything. I'm just dust existing on a big ball of dust with 7billion other pieces of dust with some type of energy hidden within us. I wonder abou this life. 8(

Well I can tell you now that, that attitude will get you no where. Thinking like that is only going to make you feel worse and you're not accomplishing anything in the meantime. We have goals we want to accomplish, realistically it takes baby steps. I still have not achieved my goals but that doesn't mean I'm a failure or that I stink. I'm working on it and I'm working on me. There's always room for improvement. Think of the things you are doing, pat yourself on the back for what you are doing well and stop putting yourself down for what you're not doing. Take your time. As one of my favorite teachers always said, "Life is a journey not a race". She couldn't have been more right. Enjoy life and try not to focus on the negative. It's so easy to be negative. Try your best and thats all anyone can ask for!

Cheer up. You may have all these feelings now but they are only temporary. Things will get better and you will have the motivation to do moe things and expirience new things. Just go out and do something good for yourself (:

While I can't diagnose you over the internet, nor can anyone else here, you're showing a few signs of depression. Do you find yourself sleeping more? Has your appetite changed? It might be a good idea to ask your parent to take you to a psychologist to determine if you're suffering from a mental illness. Otherwise, many teenagers feel what you're feeling right now. Life can be confusing while you're in high school, especially with all those hormones running around in your head. If your family can put you in contact with a therapist, that would be ideal just to determine if it's depression or just a case of the blues.
