It's been a while since I posted here, but I seriously need help.

Every day, for since sometime near June, I've been having feelings of worthlessness. In June, I completely flipped out. Ever since then, I have been having terrible feelings, and just recently it's been getting hard to bear. All the symptoms fit - I'm so scared. I'm certain I have depression and I have no one to turn to. Everyone thinks I'm stupid and crazy yet they just don't get it. I know there is something wrong with me. I just need help to cope with this...

Try to think positively. Sometimes you need just a spark of hope to get the fire roaring. You have to be optimistic. I was recently diagnosed with anxiety and although no one believes me, I'm often very depressed. Take a break from life. Go outside, explore, breathe the fresh air and relax. Sometimes drawing helps. Pull out any colored pencils, markers, crayons.. Sit down and get to work. I, personally, have a journal full of inspirational quotes. Whenever I see an interesting one, I'll write it down. If I'm feeling down, I'll pull it out and read a few of them. I hope you have a great weekend. <3 There is nothing wrong with you. (*Virtual Hug*)

The thing is, I absolutely love drawing. But suddenly, I'm so lost, it's like I CAN'T draw. It makes me feel terrible. Thanks for your advice though!

there are ways,there are People to go to, councelor in School, psychologists, psychoterapists,family counselor, church...but there im not fully sure as you Need help with selfconfidence and such....but a therapy can really help, when you find somebody to talk to that can help you they will help you find a way to work with you Problems...maybe the peerfect Hobby for you....i also would say try yoga and tai chi...this help a lot finding your middle...to relax and find peace...also the work with animals or Little Kids that have no home...
and what ƒ ℓ σ ω є я ѕ bevor me did say is true too^^

try to find a nice professional help they will help you, dont worry, you are not crazy or stupid, but at some Point everyone Needs help...all will get well, i wish you the best and hope you learn that you are worth something that you are ok^^

I don't have anyone to talk to.
I have almost no contact with anyone outside the internet or my house.
I don't go to school or church.
I'm basically stuck.
Thank you for the help, though. I truly appreciate it.

@Fyyrefli: they also come home to you^^ dont give up! please

to loving to draw but suddenly not having the mod or will to do it...how about this...do something stupid...like taking Color and some paper or whatever you use, and trowing brushes with different Colors on it or a sponge...or dropplezs of Color with the brush...you can make art without drawing, its free and gets your mind of some Trouble, you even can learn to do it so that they build some Picture... not sure if this makes sence...but maybe you find this a bit fun

I'm really worried about my grandmother right now.
I saw her last night when we went out for dinner and just about half an hour ago I got a call from my grandfather letting me know that she was in hospital and is doing okay as of right now but it's still worrisome. I know she's been having problems with her heart and was due for an examination in the coming weeks but to have this happen so suddenly when she was doing fine yesterday really worries me a lot and I'm stressing out right now because of it.

Please, if you can spare a prayer or two for her, please do so.

i just in general need good thoughts.. i have an orthopedic appointment first thing monday morning and while i'm not too scared of it, i get nervous if it crosses my mind. i have scoliosis and i've been bed ridden for 2-3 weeks due to an out of the blue back injury (that's probably muscular, but definitely linked to my scoliosis). i think our first memo is to get the back pain settled but.. since my back's at the angle it's at, i'll more than likely have another appointment for a brace fitting. or, if things have gotten terribly worse, (we won't know until x-rays that they'll probably do monday sigh) i'll have to get surgery, though i don't think it's that bad yet. the last thing i need is to miss more school and the thought of surgery is just...eugh. *shivers*

it's not huge, but it's my back. i've always lived with back pain after my diagnosis and i'm just ready for it to stop limiting what i can and can't do. the last time we checked it was around 30 degrees on the top and bottom, being worse on the top. i feel like people really underestimate the pain scoliosis patients have to go through.. hopefully they start to realize sooner or later.

anyway, sending good thoughts and vibes to everyone else who's posted in this thread. i hope all of your situations come to a good ending, and if not, that you find the strength within yourself to overcome your obstacles. keep your chins up. <3

I just finished playing Life Is Strange and my depression and anxiety levels rose after seeing Max go through her crazy vision.
I am sooooooo anxious right now.

I lightly play-slapped my friend at her brother's birthday party. She then screamed at me: "WHEN WILL YOU STOP HITTING ME!" The last time I did anything like that was months ago. She knows how sensitive I am. Thanks for ruining my day. Just like everyone else.

I don't really know anymore. back in august me and my family moved and limited contact with our former step dad. two of three of my brothers are still his, so they still see each other or he comes over sometime but for the past few weeks he's been around a lot more and I'm really worried my moms going to give him another chance.. we've had a lot of bad experiences with him. physical/verbal abuse. more directed tword my mom and my other brother (that is not his) and I just.. I don't want to deal with it again. I mean I guess its not really abuse but sometimes it is. he favorites people, talks behind peoples back, threatens to hit us and calls us stupid and worthless and lazy. he thinks we don't do anything and my mom wastes her money.. I thought we were done with this but I guess not. I guess not. maybe I'm overreacting but I just have a bad feeling and recently things are just very grey. I feel like crying.. she said she wouldn't again but it really feels like it..
I haven't been feeling my best lately but I also feel forced to say that maybe I'm overreacting. I'm always trying to deny the possible truth nowadays. I'm okay I think, but than why am I seeing a counselor? I just.. I'm trying to do better in school to but I can't do it if he's going to be here. I don't like the loud noises or yelling or an extra seat at the table
I feel like in annoying all my friends and everybody and I just need to say I'm okay because if I don't I'm being selfish. so I'm okay. but I don't know. I'm sorry. I'm overreacting probably I don't know, I don't know anything anymore
I'm overreacting I'm overreacting I'm overreacting I'm overreacting

Step number one, calm down. If you're going to solve this situation, you don't want to tackle it head on. Now, go talk to your mom. Tell her, gently, all the reasons why you're upset and your feelings about your step-father. (It may be that she's still emotionally attached to him and wants to believe that he's a good guy.) But most importantly, you want to give your step-father a chance. Go talk to him. He may not be blood-related, but he's still family and you don't want to spend all your life hating him and then regretting it later.

(I hope this helped. <3)
