Well before you start the road to recovery, take some time out to step back and have a look at things.
I suggest you grab a friend, not one who will stress you out by talking about everyone, just someone who you can chat to and have fun with, go to a shopping centre and find somewhere that you can pay them to give you a massage and just lay there will your friend being pampered and chatting, it'll help you relax trust me

I'm sorry you and your mum are not talking but you really need to talk to her, tell her how worried you are about your friend. No need at this point to give your friends name just ask your mum for some advice on how to deal with her. And try to get on better terms with your mum, you never know when you might need her help. If it is really too difficult to talk to your mum try to find another grown up that you trust and ask their advice. All this going on with your friend is more than you should have to deal with alone. Can your boyfriend help? You have too much on your plate at the moment, you really need someone to talk to.

First, a boyfriend isn't going to save you. I know its easier to lean on someone, and the affection can be a boost, but if he's driving you more mad than not, sometimes you need to be alone.

Second, I'm not saying don't try to help people, but realize you are your first priority. Some people don't want to be saved, and some people make it their mission to try to be saved. Your friend certainly is looking for help or attention or both. Just remember, he choices are hers.

Third, you and your mother might go round and round for a few years. It's a tough time for you, and it's a tough time for her. You know you miss her. She misses you too. After all the noise and nonsense she is there for you, even if its not in the way you want or expect. She is there for you.

Here's the thing. The next few years of your life are just crazy. Demanding, exciting, maddening, frustrating, invigorating, confusing. It's the truth. Have more faith in yourself. One foot in front of the other. Things do get clearer in time. It takes time to really get your footing under you sometimes.

I promise you, you just need to hang in there. I fyou need to talk to your friend about her problems, do it. If you need to talk to someone else about her, do it. If you need to tell your boyfriend to back off, do it.

I know, I know... not that easy. But is it easier to let it eat you up inside? Remember, you are your priority. You cannot save your friend and you cannot make your boyfriend happy. You can make you happy. You can save yourself. You can try to help them, but only they can decide what they want. Some people just don't want to be happy.

I think you do.

Exercise And Taking Baths Will Help In Your Stress And About Crying I Don't Know What To Tell You

[major_soccer_freak]

Yes adding on exercising it is a very good way to relive stress, take a walk or go for a jog/run to clear your mind, try to find a hobby you like doing (like reading or a game) and whenever you are stressed go to it and work on it. Try to keep your mind thinking about whatever your doing so it gets your mind focused on that instead of whatever your stressing over. Sometimes it is good to cry, sometimes you just need a "good cry" to cleans your mind.

-Emotional tears are very different from tears you get when you cut an onion. Cry when you need to alone not around people and it is a very good way to relive sadness or stress.

Good luck! Put a smile on.:D

[major_soccer_freak]

Everyone has problems with stress these days everything is just rush rush get your homework finished, do a test finish a quiz sometimes you just need a break from it all. Try finding a hobby or do something you like doing every once and a while whenever you feel overwhelmed with everything take a break. Good luck!

Helllllooooooooooooo... you need Counseling. That means you need to TALK to someone, any one besides your friends or boyfriend. Go to the police station and ask to talk to someone, go to the principle and talk your heart out. YOU need help, they will help you to get HELP. Be smart, and do it.

Maybe try some remedies to calm yourself down sometimes.

Write in a journal about all you thoughts and feelings.

But the best thing to do, would be to sit back, and wait for mother nature to do its thing. By the sounds of things, there isn't much that you can do in your situation. I'd wait for all of it to blow over, which it will, in time. And soon you will feel much better.

p.s, maybe talk to you best friend and tell her how you feel, because I have been in a similar situation regarding my best friends too.
