Answers:
I think you can be anything you decide you want to be, and are willing to work for!. More about that later!.

But you are suffering from depression!. The first thing you have to do is talk to a teacher or nurse at school and ask them to help you with a positive plan!.

Get a hold of your depression!. (It has a hold of YOU right now!.) I hope an adult can get you into therapy, talk to your parents for you, and, if advised, put you on meds on a temporary basis!.

Once you are back in control and feeling good, your grades will improve along with everything else!.

I have a suggestion or two for you!.

Go to the library and read up on what you have to do to learn acting!.

Also, I encourage you to get an education or learn a skill that can help you make a living!. (This is what your parents really want!.) Then, while you are self-supporting, you begin to study acting!.

Join the drama club and meet like-minded people!. Study some more!. Be in plays!. Find an acting coach!. Join the little theater!.

When you are ready, find a friend who is like-minded and visit Los Angeles and Hollywood!. (Hollywood is a little town in the middle of Los Angeles!. I lived there for years as a writer, and met my husband there, who is an actor!.)

See if you'd want to live there!. It's an exciting place with ooddles of young beautliful people!. It's also very expensive!. That's why you want to have a good skill to make a living and a friend to room with and split expenses!.

Once you are self-supporting, sweetie, your parents have no say so in what you want to explore, such as acting!. I suspect they will be happy that you can make a living doing something worthwhile, which preschool teaching certainly is!. (God, teachers mold our future generations!) Hollywood needs good teachers, too!.

You see, where you are now is just a passage!. You are under your parents care and protection for only a couple of more years!. Use those years to make yourself strong and focused on what you want!.

Then you go out and fly!. Be an actor, or enjoy trying to be one!. Find yourself!. Experience different things, explore this world, (it's small but so diverse and exciting), and what you are feeling right now will so be a vague memory!. It will; I promise!. (I've been there; a skinney little girl in a small Southern town with no particular skills, or so I thought!.)

I've won awards now for writing!. I'm paid to write!. I've had a film made from one of my short stories!. I'm married to an actor who works in movies, film, and theater!. My teenage years of depression are so far in the past that it hardly seems even a memory!. A vague memory!.

But first you must take care of yourself!. You must reach out for help and know that it's the most important thing you can do right now!. The other will wait!. You can even keep your desire to act a secret for now!.

Take care!. Get well!. Grow strong!. I don't think you're stupid!. I think you have a dream, and that everyone should have a dream!.

You are a child of God, a unique wild flower among all the wild flowers on this earth!.

I'LL SEE YOU ON THE STAGE AND IN THE MOVIES!
