There are also lots of people who live for making everyone's life miserable but the only way to "win" against them to show you don't care and that you are comfortable with being your self. Belive me those mean kids never go anywhere in life. You should also really think twice about suicide because even though it seems like life will never get better it will I guarantee you just have to wait it out, everyone goes throught a time in their life where they don't feel alive or they feel depressed I know this first hand because I went through these feeling when my grandmother died but after awhile stuff happened and things started to get better. (if you want go to www.jw.org and look at some of the 'young people ask' questions there's lots if good answers about different situations)
Now about your period don't worry about it, it's different for every girl my mom got hers at 10 and her best friend got it at 19 just enjoy the pace that you are developing at and trust me you aren't missing out on much a period is just a pain to deal with so enjoy life without one while you can
I hope this helped

Imperfectionist answered Wednesday April 11 2012, 12:01 am: now first off let me telling you one thing... not only am i jealous of you BUT my 12/13 yr old self is jealous of you (im 18 now) there is ntohing wrong with being skinny as long as you are HEALTHY. and let me tell you sweetheart when i was 12/13 not only was i not skinny but i always have been bigger then most in the ... chest area. even back then. and on this side we envy you. Pretty much what im saying is. if you're insecure about being skinny you're going to wish you were more... "thick" just like the "thicker" girls probably look and you and WISH even PRAY they were your type of skinny. same thing goes with boobs, some smaller chests want to have larger ones and i myself would have loved to grow up not so... developed. but instead enjoyed being a kid not worrying about body image. Enjoy your childhood kid. leave body image issues to high school because when you hit teen you'll be feeling it... ALOT. [ Imperfectionist's advice column | Ask Imperfectionist A Question ]
JustJessOx answered Tuesday April 10 2012, 7:01 pm: hey there,
Okay firstly It's normal to feel insecure about your body especially at your age. its a difficult stage. You need to learn to accept yourself and love yourself. Don't compare yourself to anyone else you are who you are and that's what differentiates you. If we were all the same it would be a very boring world. Don't listen to pathetic people who have nothing better to do than to put people down.
Please no matter how bad you think things are suicide is never the answer. It is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. You have so much to live for. You are soo young you have your whole life ahead of you. Don't throw away life which is so precious. You only live once. Think of the people who are in a much much worse situation. People who are terminally ill, homeless,starving. You are so lucky. You can overcome your problems with help and support. The key is to talk. Don't bottle things up. Confide in your mom it's what she is there for! She needs to know what is going on in your life otherwise she won't be able to help. About making friends does your school have any clubs or societies? extra curricular activities?They are a great way to meet new people.
Put yourself out there. Talk to people show them your personality. Of course it's always hard to move to a new place and make new friends but the longer you leave it the harder it becomes. Reach out to people.
about your period relax! Every girl is different we all develop at different stages. It's just the way it is. Some of my friends didn't get their period until they were 15 16. Others earlier.
It will come in time. Enjoy being young. Don't be in such a rush to grow up! Don't compare yourself to your sister you are a completely different person. It's unlikely she will get her period before you.
start thinking positively and things will turn around.
Talk to your mom you will be surprised how much it will help.
My inbox is always open.
good luck and much <3
