I feel so depressed, how can I overcome this?!
Question: I'm a freshman and I hate it at my school, Its not that I dont have any friends I do but I feel like there all fakes and only like me for my modeling. They act so immature and stupid it gets on my nerves and then when I try to talk to some of the other kids they just stare at me like I'm some kind of a disease, I want to make at least one real friend, thats all, I want somebody to understand me, I came home today crying b/c I'm so fed up with how everythings going at school, I want Good friends REAL friends the type I can talk to, like evertime I got to the mall with my sister and I see these group of teenage girls I feel sad wondering why cant I be a part of that, and wont treat me like a stranger, I always feel like I need to be a better person but everytime I try to be kinder than usual somebody always brings me down, I just want to belong.

Hi hon.. i'm sorry for your pain... i see you are hurting.
I can't say whether you're depressed, but i do see you're lonely and disappointed.
I have a couple suggestions, and i certainly do not expect you to take them.. but if you feel they might help, that's great.
First of all, perhaps ACCEPT people at face value... if you feel you're more mature than kids your age, just accept them... their immaturity isn't what they are all about... everyone has very good qualities, along with the bad.
Your friends will likely have to accept your shortcomings, too... and real friends will. None of us are perfect, and we are all so different.
Let others have their own feelings and opinions, and you may also have yours! More about acceptance...
I'm sure you are a very GOOD person. And you deserve to feel happier and make some nice friends. I've found some websites for teens below.. not sure if they will help but maybe they are worth looking into?
Well ask them what the hell are you looking at. And iy could be the way you dress or your make up ect. Join a club team ect. If you happen to hear some one talking about something you like than go up to them later and say hey i heard that you like whatever. Or if you really hate it there see if you can transfer. I'm like that at my school.My school is the ruffest in our city. Poor fundings .. ya. I was like that in my freshman year. I didnt know any one but my friends taht i knew. I felt like crap ect. And if some one says something to you back fire at them. Find people that like the same things as you.
