Answers:
A large part of the problem is that you're 16!.

It's a turbulent time, with hormones dragging you this way and that PLUS having to deal with a whole new set of rules that nobody ever explains to you!.

The good news!? The guys that are picking on you are interested in you - they just can't adfmit it!.

Try telling them that you know they like you and really mess with their heads - they're even more confused than you are and it'll tie them in knots!.

As for being shy and quiet, that's a choice that you're making - it doesn't seem to be working very well for you!.

Ask yourself what the cost would be if you spoke up a little more often!. Write all of the risks down on a sheet of paper!. Then write down all the good things that might happen if you spoke up more often!.

Once you've got all your fears down on paper, I'll bet they don't look so scary!. You might want to become more active then!.

Good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It does sound like depression, which is common among teens!. That does not mean you should take it lightly!. I went through it myself as a teen and, luckily, I didn't end up hurting myself although I thought about it!.
Find someone, person, that you can express this stuff to!. I am serious!. Personally, I think you should avoid members of the school system!. Teachers, principals etc and try to find someone outside the system with training and experience in this field!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Okay, please tell your parents and go see your doctor!. This sounds like depression!. So many people in this world are on anti-depression medication and or see therapists!. If you don't take care of it now it will only get worse!. Those guys in your english class, they aer bullies and in 15 years they will have a different outlook on life and would be sorry for teasing you!.They are just immature!. Go get help at the doctor though you will feel so much better!. and talk to your parents!!! good luck to you!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

i know everyone says the same thing!. that your 16 and you'll get over it!. but to you its the worst thing in the world!. i went through that a couple of years ago when i was 16!. it will get better!. when your out of highschool you'll look back and be shocked at the things you let people hurt you by saying to you!. (i know i just graduated last year)They'll seem so dumb!. But thats a year or 2 away from you so for now just keep your head up!. think about the future!. i like to daydeam as corny as that sound!. Especially in higschool!. i'd turn on my music and let my mind slip!. think about how in the future your life willl be 10 times better then the jerks who are picking on you!. i've never heard that sang before but i do know that some people are jerks and some people are caring and even strangers!. i added you on yahoo to my contacts!. just send me an email if you need to talk!. hope you feel betterWww@Answer-Health@Com

I went through this period too, I was very shy and I didn't want to do anything but my homework, work in class, read my books, etc!.!. I realized what was bringing me down were three people i thought were my friends, and i just found this out 2 days ago!! These people were a clique, and i wanted to get in so badly that i even took crap from them, like being left out and getting verbally abused !.!. and the other day I just started to break down crying because of the stress and verbal abuse!. And I am extrememly happy I did so, because hat brought me to a light at the end of the tunnel! I have avoided them for the past 2 days, and everyone around me (my real friends and every single other person that really likes me) notice a real glow in my eyes, i am alwaysss happy now!. What I suggest is, I know it seems scary to talk to people but trust me, they'll think of you as brave and cool if you try to start a simple conversation !.!. surround yourself with positive people and as for those 2 boys, COMPLETELY ignore them! that's what i did, dont even make EYE CONTACT, and if they try to talk to you, just agree with them, they'll figure out it's useless making fun of someone if they agree with what theyr saying!
Just always rememeber to literally keep your head high and SMILE smile smile!!
Works every time!
Hope I could help! It'll surely get better soon!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Take your energy and close your eyes!. Now just listen to your breathing, do this to stop the mind from rambling, and making you crazy!. I write for a living this is one of my poems!. It's called

Treasure

I once met a young old man who though that way!. Had his mind on a change, simply live it one step at a time he would say!. Had a story to tell that always came true about his life that he positively knew!.
He said the secrets for the treasures of life are this!. Stay centered, and rooted with a heart as big as the whole!. Encouraging growth be nothing to oppose step away from evils path let it go!. See through misleading impressions of fear and hope you will see that you are free to feel the moment!. Be humble let all things in, patient with the way things are, makes compassion for the world to feel who we areWww@Answer-Health@Com

Wow, this sounds like my experience when I was in middle school hmmm 9 years ago!. Geez I'm old!. Moving on,you are not alone and you are not worthless!. You have to remember that people tease other people especially in your age group because they themselves have insecurities and low self esteem!. The best way to deal with that is take a stand for yourself you could ignore them or maybe do something I didn't do but I wish I did!.!.you could ask the teacher in private to move you to another seat in the classroom or something of that nature!. I know you may think that they may see that as weakness but it's not, you deserve better treatment than that and if anything it shows that you aren't afraid to make positive choices for yourself!.

I know what is going on for you now is really difficult, but things do get better, and that all starts with you!. Maybe you can find some activities outside of school or in school you are good at!. Get involved in something where you shine, that will give you some confidence in your life!. The way you feel about yourself truly reflects on others, if you have confidence people can see that!. This is probably why you are targeted right now is because your low self esteem!. Maybe you can make a list of 1-3 things you do each day that you are proud of, it can be something as small as talking to a friend or saying hi to stranger!. Anything that you don't see as a big deal, celebrate it as an accomplishment!. The more you recognize and acknowledge the good things you do each day the more you will build on your confidence and character!.

Also do not be afraid to tell someone how you feel like your parents or a therapist!. I know it's embarrassing and scary to tell people what you are going through, but believe me it will be helpful in the long run!. You shouldn't have to deal with this type of stress and pressure as a teen!. It's not fair to yourself, you deserve better than that!. It took me until I was 18 years old I'm almost 22 now to figure these things out I'm telling you now and I wish I had learned these things sooner, but then again as bad as things were they shape you to be the person you are today and I'm proud of that!.

Sorry this was long!. I really hope this helps you!. Also, those nasty boys if they continue to act the way they do through out life won't get very far believe me!. ;-)Www@Answer-Health@Com
