I really wish that this stress could just go away, get it over and done with.

Saturday was as stressful as anything with my grandmother being in hospital and desperately trying to get a hold of my parents to let them know what had happened and them not picking up at all until 8pm seeing as they're currently on a vacation for awhile and I was basically alone all day. Not that I'm use to it but the fact that my grandparents were suppose to pick me up at noon it was pretty stressful and I'm still really having a difficult time dealing with all of this.

I'm falling back into that pit of despair of mine.

My English teacher doesn't like my style of writing so she's been tearing a strip off me because of that whereas my teachers for the past few years loved it and to have something like this happen all of a sudden is hitting me really hard and it's stressing me out even more then it really should be but if I get bad grades on my report my parents are going to likely tear a strip off me. I'm almost an adult yet I still fear these sorts of things because I know they want so much from me and sometimes I just can't offer it...
I just don't know what to do anymore. I'm scared, I'm lonely, I'm depressed and I'm lost.

I'd rather be online talking with the only real friends that I have in life, my online friends who mean everything to me but I'm just afraid to reach out as I don't want them to have to carry the weight of my own problems when they have their own things to worry about. I put on a fake smile at school to hide the pain I feel deep down inside when really I just want to curl up in a corner and cry my heart out more then anything else.

I know I'm depressed, I always have been since I was younger all because of bullying that I went through from a certain person in my class who is still with me and definitely makes my life a living hell to this day. Yeah I understand people have their own problems but I'm not the scrape-goat. Yet somehow I just let it happen because I know if I react that she's going to make me look like a fool in front of the entire class and it'll all start over again.

I don't want to get bad grades, I once was a straight A student. Now I feel like I'm not only failing but failing my parents, myself... everyone in my life. I need to get a grip, change my priorities but when my only getaway from all the stress and pain I feel in my life is online or through my art. I can't do it no matter how hard I try to convince myself. My life is slowly falling to pieces and there's nothing I can do to put it back together, or at least it feels like that now.

My best friend is dead.
Nearly two months ago she and I talked, and three weeks later she took her last breath. I'm broken. I'm lost. I keep hoping she isn't gone, that it's all a joke. My chest hurts, that deep ache in the back of my throat that makes me feel like I'm suffocating. My friend is dead, she's gone.
I can't function sometimes when I think of her. Life can be so unfair

When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. But when life gives you a pile of crap, there's nothing much you can do...

I've been overreacting to everything and just spontaneously crying for no apparent reason... I've felt sick since second period even though I don't have a cold or a fever or anything. I'm had three total meltdowns today for very little reason, one because someone misheard me, another because someone sniped at me, really basic things. I don't know why I'm so emotional today... the only time I really felt good was when I was drawing earlier but that was probably because I was working on some hyper-realistic thing and I was concentrating too hard to cry.

Oog.

A digital hug would be nice, I'm starting to cry again.

Noooooononono Sno, hugs everywhere!
Sometimes you just have a bad day. I bet tomorrow you'll feel better. If not look up cat memes and make some hot chocolate even though it's like constantly 84 degrees where I live right now and watch Mean Girls or something.
If drawing made you feel good, then do more of that! It seems to be a stress reliever from what you said, so use that!

Stress affects all of us. And when it comes to grades, I get you completely. This year was my first year taking AP classes, and I decided to take two. Now I have 2 crap on my report card, when before I would get all As (except in math. Screw math). But I'd like to point out that most children are straight-A students until they hit the end of middle school/early high school. This is when their true potential comes out. If you turn out to not be a straight-A student, that's okay! You're still intelligent, but in a different area other than school.
I suggest forgetting school for a little while and doing something small that you enjoy. I know it sounds crazy ("The stress will bother me while I'm trying to enjoy myself!") but honestly, sometimes you just need to push it out for a little while. If you have a little hobby that you can practice, do that. Do it until school goes to the back of your mind and then do it for a little more, so you can really enjoy yourself.
Then, when you go back to schoolwork, take a deep breath before starting. Remind yourself that this is your future, not your parents', so you're the only one that your grades matter for. Parents should urge children to do better, but not to the point that they stress them out even more.
Just take a deep breath. You'll get through it.

Guys. I'm crying harder than I have in years... One of my dogs puppies was born with a "condition" and i know it won't survive. It's fighting though which make me feel even worse. We can't take it to the vet until my dog finishes having her puppies so he can't be euthanasied until then. Please someone message me. I feel like crap.

[kaden]

we used to be best friends. inseparable, laughing at each other's jokes even if they weren't funny, everyone wanted to be like us. We were friends since we first met on the first day of school and I never thought we would come to this...

now things are different. We can barely look each other in the face, let alone talk and laugh. It pains me when I think of all the good times we used to have. It all happened so fast, when we moved into high school she started talking about me, laughing at me, ignoring me and doing horrible things I never would have thought you were capable of doing. It makes me so sad when I think that we used to be friends. And the mean things she is doing isn't showing any sign of stopping any time soon...

I need to talk it over with somebody, I want somebody to understand me, please pm me! <3

I have been keeping all of the negative feelings inside and trying very hard to appear fine, even happy in order not to hurt or annoy anyone and it's becoming really exhausting and I dont know how much longer I can keep this up for. 8)

Gross
Ugly
Fat
Stupid
All these things and more I'm called...
apparently my boyfriend broke up with me :C
Some guys were calling me names today and I almost cried
I can't be myself without being put down
Can't talk in fear I'm too loud and I hate my voices sound
I wish I could just stay in my house and hide
away from everything
