I have no understanding of what I am going through, please help me?!


Question: I have no understanding of what I am going through, please help me?
Truth is that my mom is disappointed in me because my grades are slipping, i figured as much. I swear that I was doing well in english though. I have been getting test grades between 95-100's and doing all my homework, but my report card says otherwise. I am becoming depressed again because I feel like a failure and all I can think about it overdosing/getting high off of pills. I even thought of getting back at my mom by sleeping around with EVERYBODY. What is wrong with me?

Answers:

I know the feeling. You're looking for an outlet for unbearable emotions that you aren't sure how to cope with.

Try identifying the feelings that trigger the urges to sleep around and abuse drugs. From your description, I pick up on a lot of anxiety, invalidation from your mom, frustration, and stress. The only way to cope with these feelings is to experience them. When you have an urge to use a negative behavior, do the opposite. Distract yourself.

From personal experience, sleeping around and abusing drugs are counterproductive behaviors. They only make you more depressed. Your relationship with your mom should be addressed too...can you see a counselor? It sounds like she's invalidating you and your hard work.

It's struggle, but trust me, I'm 21 and I've been through that stage.

Good luck :)
