Bringing yourself down will only make things worse.

I'm sure your parents force you to school because it's the law. And because school is good for you. School is your ticket out of your situation. After graduating you can move away and go to college, away from your past community.

Have you tried talking to school officials? Counselors? They may be able to help.

I know depression sucks energy away but that's no excuse for doing nothing. Get up and do something, you may find something you really enjoy doing.

If you want to get better, you have to work at getting better.

* This is supposed to be motivational so I'm sorry if it came out wrong.

@Deimos

Apologize if you haven't. That's step one.

i'm so behind on this
guys i feel guilty for not being able to post
i'm a bit busy today but i'll reply to everyone on the last two pages (so starting on page 864)

I've learned not to trust anyone. You can't get to close to people, they build you up just to break you down. Somebody prove to me not everyone is the same as this, 3 of my closest friends just turned this way, prove to me this isn't how the whole universe is. I'm shattered.

i promise you the whole universe is not like this
not everyone is as cruel as the people you once trused
i'm the same as you, but now i've got 3 best friends who i can tell
anything to and know they have my back
i promise you one day you'll be able to let your walls down for that one person
and it might not be soon, but it will happen and you'll be happy and feel safe
you don't need to rush into it, take your time, trust who you trust but
know that not everyone is like that, okay? i promise <3
good luck <3

I have been having some gender dysphoria lately (I am biologically female). I have taken a few quizzes about gender and most of the time I end up with the result "Male" or something similar. I really just needed to tell someone this, I am always open for any PMs. I am also very excited because I am going to get my hair cut very short and get it dyed.

I'M PROUD OF YOU C:
you're doing so well!
good luck with the hair cut and dye it
something wicked and unique
good luck <3

I can't.
I just can't jump straight into school after all that
Oh god.

go slow
you'll be fine
take a few breaths
it may take a while but better
now than in a month and you'll feel
the exact same way but probably even worse
good luck <3

My birthday this year is going to suck. First off, it falls on a weekday, which is fine, but not ideal. Also, I'm going to be home alone for it, I'm sick, it's "shark week" as my boyfriend calls it, and I haven't been sleeping. It's a milestone birthday too and here I am feeling sorry for myself. I mean, I know I'll get a present, I just feel bummed. I don't want to be sick and cramping in bed for this.

it might not suck c:
i mean sure you may be in bed all day but maybe
you could have your boyfriend over and watch
all your favourite movies and eat snacks
and all the good stuff.
just make sure to have heating pads
and chocolate and everything c;
good luck <3

I honestly don't know. What is happening with my life?
This year has been really hard for me. My dad lives all the way across the country from my mom, and earlier this year I thought I was going to go live with him. I got there, and the school sucked, and I just could not deal with leaving my mom and all of my siblings, and I made made up my mind to move back. When I expressed this to my dad, I saw a side to him that I had never seen before, and it scared me. He said some very hurtful things to me, so bad, that I literally could not believe he was saying those things.
I continue to receive hurtful and depressing yet passive aggressive texts from my father, and it is beginning to way on my conscience a bit. Also, my mom brought up a new and very scary topic for me today: High School.
Okay, so high school isn't that bad right? It's fun right? Everyone gets through it, right? Well, I don't know, because I haven't been to public school before, and now my mom has decided to send me to high school this year. I am SO FREAKED OUT! I have no idea what to expect. I don't feel prepared, or ready for the amount of stress and homework. I don't think I have learned enough to be at the level I need to be, and I am so worried I am going to be a failure.Also, I am not on the internet that often; I am only on for CS sometimes, or to check my email or to practice math on Khan Academy. So, I get socially awkward when people bring up social media because I don't understand it.
I just want to curl up and cry and cry and cry away all of my stress and anxiety.

hey it's okay,
honestly public school isn't as bad!
movies totally over exaggerate
my school is british and the only thing you get
it students being disrespectful to the teachers.
it's okay to cry and cry and cry away all of your stress and anxiety
you'll be fine at school!
i'm awkward over anything
don't feel so bad about the social media; you could always
get into it.
i'm sure you'll do brilliant!
good luck <3

Well... what can I say? I went from hero to zero. ;;
My life has gotten to a point where I can no longer catch up with anyone.
I miss being normal.
I want to drop out of school. ;;
How disappointed on myself do I have to be? ..
Ugh.
Ugh.
Ugh.

you can make time to catch up!
do homework first
don't drop out, but maybe take a mental
day off to help "regain" your motivation
and energy.
you ARE normal
stress and disappointment is normal
however i can tell you that you are nothing
to be dissapointed over
you're amazing and deserve the world and more
good luck <3

i have a scratched cornea, fighting parents and alarms i need to wake up to for school in the morning.
it hurts to close my eye, leave it open, etc. but i need it to see bc my left eye is messed up (vision) and i want to stay home tomorrow. edit; so much for staying home. my eye is killing me
im draining myself of energy until i can't function properly and i can't stop doing it. i really just need to sleep.
my anxiety levels are skyrocketing.
im scared of everything and everyone.
i can't help but bottle everything up until i break, and im going to end up breaking soon and i don't know how many people im going to hurt besides myself and im scared.
im scared and i really just can't right now and i feel like im disappointing everyone no matter what i do and I really can't take it. im so sorry, i really just want it to stop.
i see everyone else getting things bc they're "upset" and stressed, but when im going through hell, and having to pick myself up because no one cares enough to help me, all i get is a "i'm sorry, ghost" and then it's like im not even there? i just want to be cared about and get things sometimes, is that too much to ask? too selfish of me?

hey don't bottle your feelings up,
even if it's just in the quiet of your rooms
you'll be okay dude
you're doing great
try not to damage your cornea anymore,
try to tell your parents how you feel and/or block them
out by watching tv or listening to music
school is gross and i hope you're doing okay!
try to get a lot of rest, go to sleep early today
good luck with the anxiety
i'm proud of you <3

ahhhh im suffering and it's only tuesday :']

boo you'll be fine!
just take a deep breath and try to take a break and
rest for a while. have a warm drink, watch a funny show,
decorate your room.
good luck >3

My depression has been really really bad lately.
My parents are acting like they hate me. They have no sympathy for me anymore. All I want to do is stay away from school and from all the bullies but my parents keep forcing me back.
They know how much I hate it here. They know how much harm it does me. They don't care.
I bet they wish they had my cousin as a kid instead of me. I'm just a mistake and a failure.
If they really cared they would have talked to the school. They would have done something instead of making empty promises and telling at me.
I hate being home. I hate being at school. I hate being at the job I was forced into.
I don't want to turn 18. I don't want to be an adult. I can barely survive being a KID.
I want to talk to my sister about it. But she'll just ignore me or hurt me some more and, like always, my parents won't do a thing about it.
I feel like they hate me. I don't blame them. I even hate myself for being such a disappointment and a failure.
They think I'm lazy. Even my DOCTOR agrees with them, when he's the same person who diagnosed me with depression, which is known to make people lack motivation. And what do you do when you have no motivation? Nothing, because you have no energy to do anything! My mom out of all of these people should understand this, since she has it to.
But hey. I'm the youngest. I'm pretty here to be the punching bag.
I've told so many people what I go through. Some laugh it off. Some promise to do something but never do. Some just use it against me later.
I've been so depressed that I can't sleep. I'm barely hungry anymore. My legs feel like they're being ripped off. I'm always tired. I can't focus anymore on anything, be it school or something I actually enjoy(ed).
I feel like an empty shell of a human.
I can barely feel emotion anymore. All I can do is cry. Meaningless.
I'm so tired of everything.
I'm tired of everyone fighting.
I'm tired of being hurt.
I'm tired of feeling so numb.
I'm tired of being TIRED.

i am so so so so proud of you
proud of you for being able to survive these few years
proud of you for battling with depression
proud of you for living
you are NOT worthless and never will be
you are NOT a disappointment and never will be
you are NOT a mistake and never will be
you're amazing
lack of motivation and energy, i get it.
but hey, celebrate the small stuff
go eat food, and i understand you said
you're not hungry but eat an apple or
a piece of chocolate and reward yourself
for being like that. you deserve to be happy.
you can be happy, always remember that
start small, maybe read a book. once you've completed it
reward yourself with another book.
write a journal, once you've written something
reward yourself.
i have faith in you
and i'm proud of you
good luck <3

I can't believe i have been this stupid. On a party i accidently told something i wasn't supposed to, to everyone. And my crush got incredibly mad at me, since it was the second time i didn't watch my mouth. While he says he isn't angry anymore i just... feel like he still is. Or at least, dislikes me now. I really hate myself for it, and i want to make it up. However, i've been trying for weeks now to invite him over and just.. do fun things? But he doesn't want to, saying he doesn't like coming over if there's just 2 people. Every time i get the idea that he just doesn't want to see me and it's always in the back of my head.

I'm afraid to go to him at school, afraid to go to the group of friends i usually hang out with (because he's also there), afraid to text him, afraid to ask him to do something together... While he has now agreed to come over with a group of friends, I feel like he just does that for the group, and maybe a bit for me so i won't be too sad. I just... don't know what to do, i really want to make it up but i fear that i ruined it for good. What should i do?

it's normal
i hate going to peoples house when there's just the two of us
go to him at school and talk
apologise to him
you guys will be fine!
good luck <3

you will be happy one day and you will get better
i promise
as i said to LadyCheckmate, start small
and work your way up
good luck <3

ugh
i thought escaping a toxic friendship is supposed to be liberating
frankly i just want to go back
it was so much simpler then
plus i'm being medicated now for my mental health and i'm so nauseated

you may not feel like it
but it is much better for you to be out of
one instead of in one
just sit down for a while and try
to steady your breathing
you'll be okay c:
good luck and i'm proud of you <3

[vitya]

I am screwed for my pre calc final.

[trans]

ahhhh im suffering and it's only tuesday :']

Not sure why day of the week has anything to do with this. Unless it's school related, then now it's Wednesday so the week is half way over. Three day weekend is soon, if you're in America of course.

i have told you not to talk to me and i have told you not to interact with my posts. i have you foe'd for a reason, i expect you to respect that and leave me alone. im sorry if this is not the place or whatever, but if i have you foe'd and have told you that you make me uncomfortable then you ought to stop these bothersome replies that don't actually do anything but make me wish the block system was better so you'd stop.

lie down for a bit and steady your breathing
