I write songs... n usually prefer to sit alone... now in this school.. m trying to be *fine*.. usually I look like a nice cool flirty dude.. but there's more to it..

I know it has helped me a lot in the past if I find something to strive for; you can focus much of your idle energy on planning (a trip, your future career, school, music, etc.) whatever you dream to do. It sounds like you're a creative person and that's great. Music, designing tattoos, etc. You mentioned making a band? That's a good idea to meet people who have the same tastes in music as you who often have the same viewpoint, and if not, who can broaden your horizons. My point here is that you should not give up on yourself, ever, yet alone so young. No matter how bad it is there is someone out there that has it ten times more worse. |

Get an associates degree or even just a certificate in something to give you a boost into the next adventure. Mold your education around your needs and around who you are. A good guidance counselor is priceless and will help you accomplish this. Teachers also are great guides and supporters, as the next paragraph proves. It was in today's paper -- an angry and mostly hopeless-feeling troublemaking Chicago teen, Nelsan Ellis, was headed for disaster when two fine arts teachers took him under their wing because they saw something special in him. They encouraged him to be in school productions where he learned how to express his emotions in socially acceptable ways. He's now one of the stars of HBO's "True Blood" and will be in an upcoming movie "The Soloist" with Robert Downey Jr. and Jamie Foxx. |

itneverends: some of the advice on this post is really great and I hope it shows you that even though you're angry at the moment in it seems that you are in a lot of pain ,there is hope for change. personally I was a loner from the age of 13 until I was 17. I only had like 3 friends that I only saw at school, I was depressed, anxious and in a lot of pain b\c of the general situation at home. I've also spent a good chunk of my life being suicidal... but once I was ready to move out of my shell, I saw that life can be truly amazing! Sure I'm a little wired still ,he he but who isn't. Normal doesn't really exist when it comes to people, b\c what is defined as normal changes from place to place and from city to city, town to town. Besides if you have been in trouble and in pain that has a tendency to create chain reactions. I really hope that one day, when you are ready you will be able to open yourself up and create a good life for yourself filled with people who like and love you for who you are. Besides you seem to have a really good thing going g for you with your creative abilities, why not take a chance and try to develop them further? and of course even at 16 you can have had some significant experiences that have molded you and made you the person you are, but trust me there are so many things to experience... both good and bad and you probably haven't even touched the tip of the iceberg yet. wondergirl's advice on school is a really really good advice! Wouldn't it be awesome to be able to study something you like? An d to be better at something your really good at ? :) personally I like to think of life as a journey, and everything in this journey has created me. And I've managed to look at all the negative aspects of my life and turn it into something positive: for example my mom is a periodical pill popper, and b\c of this I had to be her mom and my siblings mom when she was in one of those periods... sure it sucked, but it has helped me become a sympathetic person who values what she's got and I have a great relationship with my siblings! Or my dad has been absent most of my life but I have had the most wonderful stepdad! and even though your way to 16 has been troublesome, painful and hard... the sum of the next 16 years doesn't need to be that hard... :) I wish you the best of luck! -Roxy |
