Hi, I'm a 15 year old sophomore and I need help. I sometimes feel as if I'm all alone and just when I think someone will help they end up getting mad or upset with me. Baseball and a possible college scholarship keeps me going and some friends do as well. But with my grandma dying about a month ago and my parents being divorced I feel depressed, relationship issues make it worse as well. So how can I be happier and more content with what I have instead of what my problems are? All help will be appreciatted.

You say that you enjoy baseball, do you play for a local team? I think that any activities with an element of fear may help you, or just seeing friends and meeting new people. Have you talked to a doctor about this as well because they could supply you with anti-depressants if you think you need them. My suggestion would be to see a councilor or maybe talking to a close friend who understands you and talking about generally makes it better for most people... I hope this has helped and sorry if I seemed patronising throughout any of that.

I play for my high school and a traveling team and thank you for the help I'll see if it works!
