[I r o n.]

she treats me like I'm stealing her best friend. I'm not trying to, maybe she should hang out with her old best friend, instead of acting all drama queen about it. and now your saying "oh she only hangs out with you because she's bored and she doesn't really like you she told me" yeah, right.. I don't know what to beleive, I mean, I dunno I'm a depressing, quiet, snappy person I don't want people to actually think I'm amusing and fun to hang out with. she's getting on my nerves, so much as the other girl is.. god I want to punch her so badly damn but I can't.

First off, lemme start by saying I hope things start looking up for everyone. I may not have gone through what you guys may have, but I have been going through a rough time, especially in school, as this is the most important year.

So basically, I've been a generally ok student, getting A's and B's my entire life (this may seem good, but coming from a family where your younger sister has always been better and a community where students are pushed to take as many APs as they can, its hard to measure up). I've also been a pretty scatter-brained person my entire life, having trouble paying attention or listening to anything I wasn't interested in. At the start of high school, I was doing ok, only one B a semester, in english. Then 2 B's sophomore year, not even low B's, like 85-89s. Basically, I wasn't struggling, but I wasn't trying my hardest either. Then junior came, which people say is the hardest and most important. Right away, I began struggling. first semester, I got 3 B's, but they weren't that bad. But second semester ended and I was barely able to scrape by with an 80 percent on 2 of my classes and an 82 percent in another. During the second semester, i had become more moody and withdrawn, something that was noticed by my mom. We even got into a few fights. I began seeing a therapist to 'de-stress', but it didn't help much. Once summer started, she took me in to see a psychiatrist and I was diagnosed with depression. Not only that, it was confirmed that I had ADD, which was basically the root of all my problems. We had always suspected that I might have ADD, but never went to get a proper diagnosis because it wasn't affecting me for the most part at that time. We were told that brighter ADD kids are able to compensate for their symptoms for a while, but once their responsibilities pile on, signs of struggle become more evident, which was what I had experienced. Over the year, I had tried to avoid any responsibility and procrastinate to the fullest. And I'm not talking about putting off my homework for two hours after school, no, that I would have been able to handle, I'm talking about waiting until 11 or 12 to START my homework kind of procrastination. In other words, I dug myself deeper and deeper into a hole. The more I procrastinated, the worse I did in school. All caused by ADD. So the doctor prescribed my anti-depressants and ADD medication at the beginning of this school year and we will see how well it goes. Its just a starting dosage so I haven't really noticed a difference in my focus yet, but I'm definitely happier. In fact, I went in to say Hi to a couple of my teachers from last year and they both said I looks happier and more confident. I know I haven't stopped procrastinating yet, but I'm working on that. Its a habit ingrained in my sleep cycle so it might take a while.

*gives giant big hug*
You are loved, you are wanted, you are talented, beautiful, wonderfully unique, and full of worth.
Life's burdens cannot change that.
You are strong enough to push through them, even if that strength requires some pain and tears, because all the effort sows good things in the end.

I know how you feel. I too am an all honors, A, B, student. I was just diagnosed with ADD and Depression, and have a hard time in school. Especially at my old school, where classes were almost two hours, which is outside an average adult's attention span. Just last night, I waited until midnight to do my work. The night before? 11PM. Probably because I haven't taken my medication for two weeks...
Basically what I'm trying to say is that I know how you feel, and if you ever need anyone to talk to, you can PM me.
I was taking one a while back that helped me with focus, and it really helped out. I went from not paying attention to getting my work done and feeling more confident.
I hope that your medications help you out too! I know it can be hard at times, and this may sound corny, but don't give up c:
