Too many things going on in my head
I have so much bottled up. I feel sad , insecure most of the time. I have many friends but i feel like i can't talk to any of them about personal issues. I recently moved and i miss my old friends like crazy. It's been over 3 years since but i still miss them. They probably don't remember me anymore and here i am sad about it. I am a junior and soon i'll be in the real world. I want to do so much. I want to help all those who are in need. Help change the world. I have big dreams but how can i accomplish them if i feel like shit. I really do. i don't feel smart enough/pretty enough. I have so many people around me yet i feel alone. People say i make them happy because i'm always making them laugh but nobody seems to make ME happy.. Am i depressed? I feel happy at times but at night i start thinking and bring myself down. What can i do to improve? thanks

Want to answer more questions in the Work & School category?
Maybe give some free advice about: School?
If you don't love yourself, how can anyone else love you? That's the thing with people now a days, they want someone to love em, but love starts with loving yourself.
Insecure? Sweety, you're beautiful in your ways. There will ALWAYS be people who think you're beautiful and others who doesn't find you attractive. And that's life. There is both ugly and beautiful/handsome in everyone.
So, you're sad because no one can make you happy? And that's exactly the reason why you should depend on yourself and make your opinions matter most. If people can't make you happy, at least you could make yourself happy. Love yourself!

I am the same as you. I wouldn't say you're depressed. I'd say you're very talented.
I'm 18 and I volunteer for 5 different organisations.
Seriously, start volunteering.
It will be the most rewarding thing you have ever done, and you will really pick up confidence.
I volunteer in a charity shop, for one. This is great because you come into contact with people who almost literally have NO MONEY. This is very humbling and makes you feel great that you have helped them AND helped the charity to. You can also add your personality to your work. Through creating window displays to the way you greet people in the shop.
I also volunteer in a field of study that I want to work in in the future, to do with the media.
Honestly by volunteering it will make YOU happy, partly because you'll get to love it and the people.
I'd love to be the head of a charity one day. Why not become a fundraiser for a charity and help organize events?
There's so much you can do! But you need to get started, to have the same motivation that I have.
Got to go now...I'm off to my charity shop.

First off, I am really glad you have big dreams, a goal to strive for. I think that you should start small first, like helping charities and others. Changing the world takes small steps.
For your depression, do not turn to self harming, it would only make it worse (experience). Try doing something that you know will make yourself proud, maybe start a project of some sort, or go to that place you have always wanted to go but never did. Or, try talking to someone. I know it seems like there is no one that would listen, but I bet someone out there would understand (maybe a friend or family?). Pouring your feelings out really helps you feel better. Also, spend some alone time. I know you're probably thinking "I feel alone enough already", but this is really important. Go to a place where you can be alone, rant about all your problems, cry until you have no tears left, then realize how beautiful this world is. How everything is made with purpose. You think you aren't good enough, but really you are the only one holding yourself down. You say you make people happy? AWESOME. That's the best quality anyone could ever have. I bet those people will be willing to make you happy too, if you'll just let them. Good luck x :)
