Death: I'm 13 years old. I can not help but think that death is the only way to get out of my situations.
Question Posted Sunday June 3 2012, 12:18 am
I'm 13 years old. Nobody understands me. I hate life for many reasons, and think of how I could end it the most painless way. I can not help but think that death is the only way to get out of my situations. I feel as though if I don't care what's happening in my life than no one else should. I think about what I would say if I were to follow through with ending everything. I just hate the lies I hear every day. I hate the harassment and judgement I have to bare with every day. The only true reason why I don't kill myself is because I couldn't do that to my family. My dad told me that if I was to ever need to do anything he'd want to just think I ran away with a friend and I'm safe and not have to identify my corpse and have a funeral for his child he couldn't image that. I almost feel that is selfish. My mom offered me counseling but I didn't want it and now I just want help and she won't listen. I am the ugliest girl at my school and spends the weekends by myself. I must sound as though I through a pity party for myself to others but they just don't know what I go though. I don't know what to do to just be happy, can anyone help me? I tried actually socializing but I felt fake for I had to put on an act as though I'm having fun, when in all actuality I am in misery. Someone please help me.

spend time with your family. if they make you happy then you should spend time with them rather than trying to find someone who will like you. your family will always accept you for who and what you are.
never think that your ugly. everyone is beautiful in their own way. whether their beautiful inside or out. you should learn to appreciate and find happiness in the simpliest things around you. don't think to much and just enjoy your teenage life. [ askjane's advice column | Ask askjane A Question ]

I don't understand what you are going through but I know death is never the answer. You need to make yor OWN circle of friends, and surround yourself with people who love who you are on the inside and the outside. Every morning, stand in front of the mirror and take time to admire yourself from head to toe. You are above lies and harassment.
DO NOT CAUSE HARM TO YOURSELF AT ALL!!
You will survive!
I believe in you. [ Drewb13's advice column | Ask Drewb13 A Question ]

Please go get help for your suicidal feelings. You are a wonderful person, and if someone doesn't like because of the way you look, they don't deserve you. You shouldn't feel forced to live, you should want to live and love your life. It is possible to be happy again. I'm a living breathing example of it. I used to be suicidal all the time, and my family was the only reason I didn't kill myself, but now I'm so happy I didn't. You deserve the best life you can have, and wonderful caring friends, who love you no matter what. I'm sure you'd prefer that to death. Your life is really really harsh right now, but remember that it's only temporary, and if you go get help, and work hard to combat the despair, you are going to be really happy again. You are so young, and shouldn't be dealing with this. No one should. Fight until you reclaim your place in this world, at the very top, because that's where you belong. Don't let those losers bring you down. Good luck and I hope you feel better soon :) [ alexisgirlie's advice column | Ask alexisgirlie A Question ]
lightoftruth answered Sunday June 3 2012, 3:46 am: Well you want help, you deserve it. That would be your best solution. Go talk to your mom again, explain to her that you do want help and that you're willing to get it.
Just hang in there, everything will get better eventually. You'll be happy in a few years. You have your whole life ahead of you. Death isn't the way you should be going right now, and you know that because you do want to live and you want the help. Everything will be ok.

melissa123 answered Sunday June 3 2012, 2:02 am: well first of all, i can guarantee you are NOT ugly! a lot of people say their ugly and they are very beautiful.
don't ever think that death is an option, because it's not. if you really think about it, what is that going to accomplish?
if you're having trouble with something, talk it over with your parents or whoever your having trouble with. but do it nicely and truly try to talk to them with what your having trouble with.
i can help you with this everyday if you want. you don't want to spend a lot of money on counseling which dont really help you that much anyway! if you want my AIM just message me and ask! i can help you a lot and go in complete detail on what to do! :)
message me if you want that or if you have any questions
just dont think that death is the answer, because it's not!
bestttadviceox answered Sunday June 3 2012, 2:02 am: Suicide is never the answer to a problem. I know it's hard to believe someone when they say they know how you feel, but I really do! When I was your age I wanted desperately to kill myself. I was depressed and lonely and my parents fought and I fantasized about how I would end my life painlessly to make it all go away. It seemed like such an easy peaceful solution, but it isn't! Just like you I realized how selfish of an act it was and how it could hurt the people who really care about you. Now I'm 19 and I'm going to be a sophomore in college and let me tell you.. things get so much better!
I know that right now things seem hard, but life is always hard especially at that age. Making friends can be so damn tough. I know it may feel like you're being fake at first, but I promise the more you get to know those people the more comfortable you'll start to feel with them. Soon it won't feel fake at all! The best advice I can give about making friends is be friendly to everyone. You are beautiful and if you show it with your personality and are welcoming you'll find nice people who will accept you for exactly who you are.
As far as being sad and depressed, a lot of people go through that and there is NO shame in that. I went throguh it and am now stronger for it. But the most importnant thing that you can do for yourself is to tell someone, your parents if you can. Your parents love you, and if your mom has offered counseling before that means she is open to getting you talk to someone who can help you work through some of your problems which is so amazing. Telling your parents how you feel can be so helpful, because with their support you will start to feel better. There's no need to go through this alone!
I hope you read this with an open mind and decide to choose a happy life. If you have any questions or need to talk please do not hesitate to send me a message, but please talk to someone you know and trust (like a parents)! You are beautiful and strong and you will get through this! Don't give up! [ bestttadviceox's advice column | Ask bestttadviceox A Question ]
