Suicide, is NEVER the answer. You may not believe that GOD cares or listens, but HE DOES. Just because He doesn't answer your problem doesn't mean He isn't. His time is DEVINE! God led me to your question, didn't HE? Yes, He did, I know for I do whatever I do in the SPIRIT. Whether it's listen to music, watch movies, shopping even. I let HIS spirit guide me, so here I am writing you. I use to feel the same way until I finally started LISTENING to GOD when HE spoke to me. Sometimes we just don't LISTEN to HIM. He knows how you feel, & know this, responsibility & life go hand in hand. You will always have responsibilities, but that's part of life & living & learning. Responsibilities are good things, not bad, nor should be dreaded. Buck up, it's gonna be alright. Pray & keep on praying until God answers you! Go to a church of your own choosing, & LISTEN to what the preacher says, we get faith by listening to the WORD & it comes thru the preaching of THE WORD of God. Read your bible, if you don't have one, find one & read it. God is opposed to suicide & so am I. You are a human, just as I, we are both on planet earth FOR A REASON, we all have purpose & reason for living. I use to be just like you, but I started doing things that I love, like listening to music, petting my dog, writing a poem about how I felt, trust me when you get older & read those poems you will see how much you have changed over the years. I've writen since I was your age or younger, it helps get out of you your feelings, & once out, then you can go about figuring them out & solving your problems. Remember this, NOTHING is too big or little for GOD & HE WILL answer you if you will just LISTEN to HIM. It's like we are deaf & can't hear what He is saying. HE's answering, you just aren't HEARING because you aren't LISTENING. Get out of yourself & get INTO GOD & HIS WORD, You will find ALL your answers answered there. Confusion comes from the devil, don't be confused, there is only one truth, and that's
GOD, He has ALL the answers for everything. I know, Been there, done that. I have,in the past when I was young, felt just like you, it does get better, truly it does. And know this: God DOES love you & so do I, don't let the devil talk you into something like suicide, & trust me that is the devil talking to you, quit listening to him & listen to GOD!!!! God wants you to live & has a purpose for your life. Don't mess up God's plans for your future, I know he has alot planed for you. Quit worring about things, they will work out eventually, I know that for a fact. Tests are tests. Do your best & don't worry about it. Tests show how much you have learned. That's what they are for & you'll make it thru this age, I did! I'm 50 now, never thought I would make it to 50, but I did & the reason I did is because I picked myself up & dusted myself off & kept on keeping on, & eventually things worked out for me. Plus my trust in God, helped the most, I knew someday, someway He would get thru to me & show me the way. He did, when I finally started listening to HIM, & not the devil. The devil is about, kill, steal, & destroy. God is the opposite, He is about, LOVE, LIFE & LIVING!!! So live, be free, trust God, never quit beleiveing in HIM & know that...this too shall pass...Nothing ever stays the same except GOD, things change, we change, it will get better, I promise. I will be praying that God will touch your life & set you free from satan's hold on you. God loves you, & so do I, & I don't even know you, yet I love you, GOD IS LOVE & LOVE SETS YOU FREE!!! God bless you, & please don't do anything stupid, suicide is stupid, and doesn't solve anything. Get a grip, buck up, & keep on living. Living & life are wonderful, give yourself a chance at it. God bless & keep you safe always. Your friend in Chirst.
Very Normal- Best thing to do is exercise work on your abs..working out helps with stress.
Forget about it. Find Kenan and Kel on DVD and watch them, failing a test ins't the end of the world.
Sometime you could drop by and see the school nurse or the school counselor and talk to them. Or you could call the suicide hotline in the phone book when you feel sad. Or tell you parents and your doctor.
i pretty sure its just a phase
but if u do get suicidal thoughts and enjoy cutting ur wrists,
GET HELP!
well unless something drasic has happened to make you act/feel this way, probably just puberty, ur growing now, mentally and physically.... just try to calm down, school is really easy when u think about it.... try just letting ur feelings to someone in ur family or a friend or something..
it could just be the normal teenage blues. instead of worrying about the future, have fun now. take a break, go out with some friends. or you could always talk to someone you trust, like a parent or older sibling or family member. don't be afraid to talk to someone that will listen. ususally talking and getting it off your chest is the best way to cope.
its also good to keep a diary or journal to write down your thoughts. it helps you express yourself and let out all of the bad things.
just talk to someone, i assure you that it will make you feel better.
I think that's normal for an 8th grader. I was like that, too. It's second semester and High School is a BIG LOAD. But don't listen to what everyone tells you about how stressful it is, focus on how FUN it's going to be! There's a lot more freedom than middle school, just keep up with good friends and you'll have a blast. The academic problems, I would suggest doing 3/4 homework at night, go to sleep early, and finish in the morning. Go to tutorials for tests instead of learning on your own. Or have a study group, it's a lot more fun. But you should relax more on the grades, colleges and stuff don't look at or care about your grades from Middle School. And you need to eat. Eat comfort food if you must!
well you could just be stressed out. try not thinking about that test or homework. read your favorite magazine or book. go outside and take a walk. it will make you feel less stressed,energized,and make you feel better about yourself. or you could play a game,hang out with friends,or if you want to find more out about depression,log on to the internet and find a website that discusses that issue! about the confusion,it could be just from all that schoolwork piling up in your mind. and it is definitely normal for a person your age to go through phases like this! so do'nt feel bad! you will get better eventually!
Talk to your parents or a teacher that you trust even a counsellor at school.Sometimes even getting it off your chest can help a lot.Get together with friends and relax have a laugh.
it just happens its not so much depression as stress you seem to be describing what someone would go through with stress no depression
It is normal to go through periods of depression in your teen years. If you feel that the depression is severe or you have urges to self-harm, talk to a parent or teacher you trust and maybe set up an appointment with a mental health professional. Good Luck!
its just something in life that we all go through , so people take it harder than others , just try to think about happy things .
Yes, youre a perfect teenager. Every one of us goes through depression at least once in life. Here's my advice. Simply ignore whats making you upset. The more you try to think about it the more depressed youll get. Well, at least taht worked for me when I was first depressed at 14 and havent become depressed again. Things will just come the way theyre supposed to and if something bad comes then face it at the moment it comes not right now when apparently nothing wrong is going on. Some days youll think its better if you were dead but look around you and see taht theres no reason for which you should feel bad about existing. I just one day realized I was too great to let what I thought other people thought about me bother me. Plz dont suicide. I had the same ideas and im glad i didnt. Things always get fixed by themselves over a while. Believe me youll have more serious things to worry about when you grow older rather than homework and tests. One advice. Try being active as much as possible, do some sport or activity. That way you wont start thinking how miserable you are, cuz the truth is that there are people who are much more miserable tahn you.
You'd better say it to your parents, and later, go to a doctor, he could gives to vitamins.
Bye!
Talk to your parents about what your going through. They'll help you out. If you don't want to talk to them go to an adult you really trust.
seek god my friend, pray to him
may god bless you
Hey don't worry. If you really are depressed, and not just stressed, a good doctor can help. If you're just really stressed, then find someone you truly trust and tell that person all your problems, then ask for advise. That's what I do sometimes...
Also, if you're really not eating right, then force yourself to eat so you don't get sick.
Also remember that exercise makes people feel TONS better, so try running a mile or two every day and I can assure you that it's easy, gets you in shape, makes you feel better, and relaxes the mind.
And try to get enough sleep.
Good luck!
im 13 to i always do that im more layed back but i work out at 24 hour fitness so i dont get fat lol
It is very normal at your age to be suffering from feelings like stress, anger and agression. Never lower your self to self harm. It won't work and by the end of the day all you get is ugly arms. What you need to do is talk to someone, your local GP, a helpline. Try Childline on 08001111 they are really helpful and give brilliant advice. It's free and it'll take up no more than 30 mns of your time. Don't do something you know you'll regret. Talk to teachers about tests and homework etc. The only thing I think that will help you now is TALK TO SOMEONE.
Good luck.

you are going through one of the toughest, most difficult years you will ever face. All ages have their challenges, but adolescence is a roller-coaster of emotions and stresses. It is totally NORMAL to be confused, stressed, even depressed about all you dealing with. You would be shocked at how many other kids your age feel exactly like you do, and they are trying to hide it, too, and appear confident. You need a network of people a bit older than you who've been there and survived it. Go talk to a favorite teacher and/or your school guideance counselor. Please talk to your folks and tell them you feel overwhelmed. They may or may not be able to support you, depending on how stable they are and how much they are currently dealing with in their own lives. That's why it's nice to talk to someone you trust (teacher) but can be a bit more objective about everything.
I was a good student but terrified of the idea of high school. I'm the oldest kid, so I didn't have anyone to talk to and see if it would be terribly hard, or what. High school is like a fresh start. You will meet new people, have new challenges, have new opportunities. Yes, sometimes it will be hard and scary. But it could also be the greatest time of your life. Most people look back on their high-school years as the best. Find something that can occupy your spare time now, so you won't have an excessive amount of time to worry about a future you don't yet have any control over. Go talk to someone! It will help!! Good luck!
I would suggest talking to a professional, at least for their clinical thoughts on your situation. Each therapist has different approaches so if you feel the one you meet is not helping you, find one that meets your needs.
You may also consider reading books on depression and dealing with depression.
Some people find that medicines can help, which they can in many cases. But you're probably better off in the long run if you can either use them just to turn momentum in the other direction.
Just relax..dont worry so much about tests..yur life will get better and people DO care about you.
That is NOT normal feelings...
You need HELP!
PROFESSIONAL HELP.
You need to talk to your general practitioner and start down the road to feeling better.
You may or may not require medication but you 100% need therapy.
PLEASE... PLEASE... PLEASE...
Talk to your parents and if they don't take you seriously then go over their heads and make an appointment with your general practitioner yourself...
PLEASE...
You don't need to suffer... You CAN get help and feelbetter...
The sooner you get help the eaiser it is to fix.
