Ahh recently I haven't been able to sleep very well until eventually 3 in the morning :|
I put some relaxing music on but it's not enough, it seems like every song I heard today is in my head!
Aaah I just wanna sleep

that happens to me sometimes. try setting an alarm and waking up very
early, then eventually you'll need sleep so you'll go to bed earlier. it works
like a charm c; music is probably not the best idea? at least - i wouldn't
try it. it seems like it would keep you up. good luck!

I failed another science test. I have no clue what I'm doing wrong. I studied hard and got myself a tutor and I really, really thought I did well this time, but I didn't and I failed. I'm so, so scared I'm going to fail this subject entirely. I'm just so upset that I actually tried to work hard this time and it still failed. I'm not dong that good in math, either. This semester is just going downhill and midterm exams are coming up soon.

We booked a trip to Iceland and I was so excited to go but now it looks likely that we won't because my grandparents' visas haven't come yet. My grandparents are going to be so crushed and the holiday season is just going to be ruined. I just want to go to bed and sleep for fifteen years.

go after school and talk to your teacher, i'm sure they will be understanding
and help you with whatever you are doing wrong. teachers are there to help.
when i missed a week of school due to being terribly sick, i almost failed one
of my classes, but i came in during lunch and my first class to work on my hw
you could also go in after school or before school? sometimes it may seem like
teachers aren't there to help you but it makes it a whole lot easier if you try &
talk to them. they will most likely be willing to listen.

what was your life like before going to iceland? it will just be the same, w/o
the trip. there's always a time for next year too, so don't get your hopes down!
the holiday season isn't about going to trips - it's not about what you do. it is
about who you spend the holiday seasons with. i hope things get better for you!

no one even talks to me anymore, and when people do it's to tell me that i messed up. not even my family really tries to talk to me other than the occasional "be quiet, every teen feels this way" when i mention how i am literally suicidal at times. no, mom, this isn't normal. i just want a damn person to actually listen to what i have to say, and to just help me through it.
any you know how parents tell you not to compare yourself to other people? well, instead i get, "she's skinny, you should look like her." or "he looks like he works out, you should." from my own family! and then they ask me why i have low self esteem. i wonder why, maybe because you tell me i'm not what you want me to be 24/7.

i want to spread this kind of imagination no one else seems to share with me.
and i want to express it through art, through music. i've got
everything i need- the right equipment, the right software.
so why won't anything come to me?

the right sounds, the right lyrics- that's what i'm missing. is it
because i'm lacking emotion?
it sounds strange, but it comes to me at night. right when i'm
about to sleep, with no access to a computer.
i want my thoughts and sounds to reach someone, but how am i
meant to do that now?

sorry if this doesn't sound like much worth comforting. i just need
to vent a little.

Does anyone have any advice on avoiding eating disorders?

[miss kobayashi]

i'm a mess.

[quit...]

can I get a PM for a little issue going around for the Christmas (holidays) please

thank you and wish you all joy for the holidays <3

I try to act like everything is fine at the moment. I try to shrug off a lot of my problems and leave them behind because hey, it's the holidays. But I know the moment I get back to school it's all going to fall apart. I've tried to push these problems away and enjoy Christmas, but I'm honestly scared. Almost everyone at school sees me as this "monster," saying things like "she'll kill you!" And stuff, and this is coming from acquaintances and random people I barely know, and this all started because I began to have some sort of panic attack at school. I haven't had anything like that happen for nearly two years, and it all fell apart. My body shut down and I literally couldn't move my leg because I was injured on the way to lessons. (it's difficult to describe how it happened, so I'm not going to try.) I was struggling to breath and I couldn't stand up, I was hiding my face just because I know at my age I shouldn't be crying in school, I knew better than that, even when I was an ignorant 12 year old. It doesn't help that the teacher who is supposed to help with my anxiety and other mental disorder I'd rather not name in fear of even being judged here is awful at her job and causes more problems than she solves. For several months we have reason to believe she hid away important documents because it contained my parents negative opinions of her, meaning these documents may not have even reached the people they were supposed to. Another teacher who teaches one of my gcse courses continually harasses me in class, telling me how I'm supposedly "awful at most of the tasks set" and how I constantly "don't try" and "ask her to do everything for me." Of course, nobody believes me, because "she'd never to that :D" and I'm only a student, I have no power here. People tell me to go to -insert place in school here- because it's the job of the teachers there to help all students, but I have so many issues with both students and teachers at that school, that they're fed up of it at this point, and either yell at me, or pick the easiest way of solving it possible, which causes more issues in the long run.
Most students at school still harass me, and most who don't will constantly give me looks of disgust, simply because of the more popular students in the schools opinion of me.

I'm also 85% sure that two boys I know like me, and I really don't think I'm ready for a relationship, but don't know what to tell them, as I don't want to ruin any friendships either...

On top of everything else, my dog was almost reported for an accidental bite, and I cried for about 15 minutes after because I'm so scared of loosing him, especially since this is the second time he accidentally bit someone this month, mainly because he constantly lunges at toys and/or anything he wants, and doesn't realize that sometimes he can hurt people in doing so.

In all, my life's a mess at the moment. I may look and sound happy on CS and other social sites, but inside I'm an absolute wreck. I guess I'd better try enjoy the holidays, but these thoughts will always remain there, and I don't know what to do about this all.

Sorry for the long vent, I've just had so many things going on, that I really needed to let everything out.
Thanks for anyone with the patience to read this.

I've heard this advice a lot, and think it's really good! When you go to bed, keep a notebook and pen/pencil next to your bed, on your nightstand or whatever you have. When struck by inspiration, scribble down the gist of it ASAP. Good luck!

Oh no! I didn't even know dogs could get reported for biting people. I'm so sorry all of this happened to you. I hate having panic attacks at school- I feel like everyone is watching me. I recently had to walk offstage at a choir concert because I was so freaked out. Unfortunately, that was being filmed. Just know that you're not alone in this, okay? If you ever need to PM anybody to talk, I'm here, and I'm willing to bet a lot of other people would be happy to. Good luck friend!

Okay, so there's a thing I don't like about breaks. I go completely off schedule, and then forget to do really important things. For the past few nights, I've been laying in bed on my phone at like 11 at night, and suddenly realized I forgot to eat dinner. how do I help remember these things? I;m not purposely trying to avoid food, I promise, but when my school schedule is taken away I'm kind of hopeless at memory. Any advice?
