NO matter how much I try to be optimistic it never works, someotimes I find myself cyring for no reason. And my mom drives me crazy, I never feel perfectly okay. I feel alone.. is this even normal?

Yea my mom is a pain in the butt sometimes but it will pass u not alone

Heck I am over 50 and my mom is still a pain, I think it is there job

Darlin, you're a teenage girl. Yes, its normal to have these types of conflicting feelings - all at the same time. You're going through high school, growing up, emotional roller coasters, liking guys, and wanting to be done with your teen years while longing to be 30, and living in your own Manhattan apartment, right?

All I can tell you is that you are very normal. These feelings are part of growing up. I'm almost 30 and I still feel them! Don't worry, you will be fine. You will make it.

The best thing I can tell you to do is to find something that you enjoy - just by yourself. Whether its writing in a journal, drawing, walking in a park, star gazing, whatever it is, find something that is just yours. Something uniquely you. Something that you can do when you feel like this - when you feel that your life is going downhill.

Keep your chin up, sweetie. You will make it. One day you will be a successful, amazing woman with an awesome career, people that respect you, and a colorful history - one that has made you uniquely YOU! :)

Omg this is so normal me and my mom are at eachothers throats dailyyyy

And some days were perfectly fine

I've actually learned to open up to her and she kind of lays off me a lot more...

When it cmes to the whole emotional thing, girls are emotional bottom line. I went through a phase where anything would make me upset

I also went through a lot of stuff when I was little with family that every now and then makes me upset and past relationships and getting hurt can also strike a nerve

What helped me out a lot was I went out and bought a journal from barnes and nobles and wrote in it every time I was upset or anytime in general. It helped me cause it was like iw as releiving my stress and getting something off my shoulders I also started to wrte poetry and found out that a nice bubble bath with my favorite music helped to relax me.


But don't worry about it, it happened with everyone just look at pictures think of happy moments and just keep your head up.

Life no matter how you look at it will be stressfull in one way or another, its just how you handle it.

Awww thanks guys, all this advice is rely helping.

I think I am in fact going to write in a journal :] I love to write poetry.

I know how you feel, my life is going down hill too (it suckz)... my brother always tells good times will come all you have to do is make good choices and wait till karma repays you in a good way.
