I remember when I was 13 (I'm 33 now), the reason why I remember this age so clearly is because, unlike you, I hated everything about myself! I felt so awkward....I was way too skinny, I had really long feet for my skinny body, hated my nose (still do) my hair was frizzy (i didnt know about styling products), boys didnt really notice me, girls used to pick on me....I could go on! Point is, I used to pick myself apart and whats funny about that is, the same things I hated about myself then, I love now....I just found new things to pick on! You will always find things that YOU think are wrong with you! Sometimes, its the same things that people admire about you, maybe, even from afar! You have to be able to like yourself first! I dont know what your going thru right now, but, I do know that at that age, all kids (teenagers), go thru that awkward period in there life! Focus on what would or could make you happy and work on those things! Maybe start a list of things that you would like to accomplish or would love to do, then just start checking them off! Believe me, life is short enough......start living! PS...you've made the first right step, talking about it:)
It sounds as though you are bored more than depressed. Find something fun and goal-oriented to do. Track, or band, or public service.
Might be a late bloomer, you're young yet and still have many GROWING years yet to come. don't let it get ya down, enjoy these years because you can't get them back
ok well i think ...
1. tell your parents.
2. go to a doctor
3. go to a mental health doctor...
4. try something new...
WHICH DOES NOT MEAN DRUGS, SMOKING, OR TRYING TO KILL URSELF.
and yes, you said not to say it... but i will. god does love you,, and your family, an your friends.
the doctors can help you find that missing thing and stop you from being depressed.
im 12 and i get really deprested and i cut myelf to make me feel better
Depression is an odd thing - it can make you miserable, it can hurt you deeply, and it can ultimately lead you to commit suicide. To tackle your fight with depression, try doing things, and not getting bored. It's a wonderful idea to find a job, or volunteer, or do something you enjoy. Go out and experience new things so that you can get a better understanding of what you want to do in the future. Once you find that, there will be no reason for you to be depressed anymore. You've still got many many many years ahead of you, so don't throw your life away just because you're depressed or bored. Find something to do to fill in that missing whole in your life - something you'd enjoy and be able to do each day - and you will be fine.
Im the same..
You need like a boyfriend or something.
Dont make the same mistake as me [self harming] it makes it so much worse but the pain makes me feel better, but i know its so much worse..
But then i met this guy im going out with and it all stopped and i was back to my old self,.. we broke up for a bit but it didnt get worse, i felt sad obviously but my friends were there and cheered me up
Keep your friends close...
Hey come on 13 your only 13, and not yet hit puberty, never mind the perfect weight, you should be out playing with some mates, go and see your doc and explain to him/her how you feel they may prescribe something that will help you thogh this bleep, and don't even think about killing yourself when there people that would give any thing to be in your shoes dieing in hospitals
