what you feel is really pretty common with teenagers. Part of it is hormones trying to get re-arranged and the other part is just becoming an adult and learning who you are. Someone to talk to about these feelings would help you alot. You might be depressed but I think you might also be unaware that alot of other teens feel this way too. Ask to see your school counselor. dying is a permanent solution to a temporary problem.
You must let someone know how you really feel and that you are outright serious in feeling this way. Talk to a counselor or look up the teen hotlines. They won't judge you and may help you find new direction. It's not easy to be a teen.
Absolutely. If you want some 'real' help, you need to speak with a 'real' person, and not some avatar on a computer.
My wife gets nervous in public, but this sounds like something more serious. Definitely talk to someone who can help sort out your feelings like a school counselor or a trusted teacher.
Let me just tell you that all teens go through some type of these feelings. Trust me.
When I was 14 I felt the same exact way. Your young, your confused, your hormones are blossoming.
I got by by keeping a diary. I wrote down all my fustrations. I also wrote poetry.
Parents are there for you wether you may think so or not. Try talking with them and I am sure you can get the help you need.
I know it is hard to trust adults when they say "trust me" but TRUST ME. Things change. They get better.
I always used to tell myself when I left like I was at my lowest point that the only way left to go is up. Cheer up, you have a big, long, beautiful life ahead of you. Trust me. ;)
these are legitimate feelings, which I believe your counselor at school should be able to help you with. i believe your family doctor should be able to refer you to a psychologist to determine if you are clinically depressed. a good psychologist would work on the root causes instead of trying to just medicate you.
Well, I think that you should be influenced more to build your self esteem. Nothing is wrong not to be going outand nothing is wrong when your silence in public because it is better to be silencew especially in public.
You do not have to feel that way. Being your age is really hard. Yes you are depressed. Please tell your mom or dad. Your doctor is used to seeing and treating depression. Trust me there is help out there. I never really knew just how depressed I was till I got on some medication and it started working. Wow I couldn't stop smiling. I felt great. So please get some help because life is really great. I will say a prayer for you too.
Getting help is the best thing you can do. It will help you realize that a lot of people feel this way. I went through the same thing. From age 13 to 17 I felt like a dark cloud was following me around. I was very quiet and shy, It was hard and I didn't understand until I got help. Defiantly talk about it with someone, it makes a big difference. Your life is very important and you deserve to be happy.
dont worry your not alone the majority of teens go through these phases and you just have to know that no matter what your worth living. as a christian i have to tell you that yes you were put on this earth for a reason to do something that will really wow the world and god has a greater plan for you and of course you need to live to fuflill his exciting plan that is awaiting for you. and it does get rough especially when your shy i had to change schools twice i know its not that bad but tryfinaly establishing your rep and move to a different middleschool then doing the same for highschool. all you have to do is find someone you can click with but dont sell your self short and pick a loser god wants the best for you and life isnt perfect and that i can promise you "THE BEAUTY OF GRACE IS THAT IT MAKES LIFE NOT FAIR" and its okay dont feel left out its hard balacing two types of lifes your social and home but tell you the truth blending them both together is the best way. your in my prayers and i know youll get by!
yours trully
