Someone please help...

I'm sorry to hear about your parent's JCD, my parent are also always fighting and yelling at eachother, but they won't divorce because of me, since I'm still young and they don't want me to go through a smeeped up parental divorce life. So I'm lucky that they're pulling through for me, but I know how it feels to know your parents are fighting. You can pull through this, and if you ever need someone, we're here

*sniff* God bless this thread! It's so... supportive!

[The Rolling Rooster]

Oh Artisan I am so sorry to hear about that. It certainly is terrible for a child to have to witness fighting with their parents... it used to be common with my parents as well... but they have been working it out. They don't believe in divorce (thank goodness for me)

But I know there are so many members here at JA that will help and support you through this tough time!
Me being one

[Dances With Rolls]

Awwww! I'm so sorry sweetie... I know how hard this can be. My parents have been divorced for about 3-4 years, and it's all very different. I hope that everything works out, and if you ever want to talk, PM me anytime.

I have the biggest problem..that I've ever had.. okay so one of my friends is in trouble for being right about something, her dad slapped her across the face and grounded her. She is like really really mad and wants to find a place to run away, I told her that she should go to a counselor and she said no and that she needs to run away..I am freaking shaking cuz Im soo worried about her...

[The Poetic Protégée]

Oh no! DeDo, it's going to be ok. You're doing the right thing. Just try and convince your friend not to do anything rash You sound like you're being a perfect, supportive friend, no one can ask more than that

I hope things get better for you and for your friend

[The Nutty Chocolatier]

Yep, ditto to Lynx. If her dad hit her, she's definitely got to do something about, but that doesn't mean running away. Kepp trying to get her to go to her counselor, like you said, and if she really does need to get away why don't you have her spend the night at your house? That's my advice anyway. Stay strong.

Okay, this has to do with Taylor..... but the problem is me... so I guess I should put it in here right?
From Journal:

I hate myself.

(Let me explain.... from reading that, I figure everyone will assum I want to kill myself or something...... But it doesn't. It was to deal with my personality, not my hate for life (which I don't hate I was just saying an example) So yeah)

But anyway, my problem deals with my boyfriend and friend.

I'm just a jerk around them..... Well I jerk all the time.... But I'm such a jerk to Taylor sometimes..... A lot of the time. I think the reason I'm a jerk around him is because of stress.... Like from school and such...... High School sucks...... But I don't want to be this way to Taylor... If I keep being this way and don't stop acting like a complet smeep, I wouldn't be suprised if he left me.. I would hate that. I know this sounds like the angry teenager stario type, But I think I would actually go into depression.

I can't keep acting like this.

It hurts him and it hurts me.

It is so stupid to get mad over the little stuff.

He will end up breaking up with me and stop loving me if I keep acting like this.

I know it.

The week always starts out good but never ends the same way it begins.......

I like the old days last year when we had differenet problems.... those were easier.

Any suggestions what to do?

How about everytime you feel yourself getting mad about something, why don't you try and think about what it is you're getting mad at? What I do when I know I'm about to get angry is I stop and think about what I'm going to say and why, it doesn't always work obviously but when it does I usually find that I can stop myself saying anything before someone gets hurt.

Everyone needs good quality rest and relaxation, I know school can be a smeep but it's important you work hard and have fun. Maybe school will get better in a few weeks and you'll find you don't get so stressed out.... Hope that helped LM&M.

[Little Miss Misfit]

Thanks Lynx! I hope that helps.

[Dances With Rolls]

Awww! Perhaps next time you're in a good mood, tell Taylor how much you love him, and just how you get stressed sometimes and it has nothin to do with him. Good luck!



Oh my goodness.. I feel so smeeped up. The last show choir competition of this year is in one week and 6 days. Not to mention, it's Josh's last show choir comp EVER. SC is our bond, and I have no idea what'll happen after that.
Plus, if our school levy fails again, we MIGHT NOT EVEN HAVE SHOW CHOIR NEXT YEAR! IT'S SO UNFAIR!!!! You know, I finally find something I love and have a true passion for *show choir*, and it's gonna be gone next year! I finally got a BOYFRIEND, and he's gonna be gone next year! I mean, luckily he's not moving, but it won't be the same! This year is going by SO FAST and I just wish something could actually work out without conflicts!!!

[The Poetic Protégée]

Oh Rollie, I hate when time changes the things you love. Just try and enjoy each moment and don't worry too much about the future because it will bring you good things too I'll have my fingers crossed that you still get show choir next year

In the meantime... There's nothing wrong with some good old fashioned huggage ;D

[The Whimsical Writer]

Only just found this thread which is a great idea but am so sorry to hear all these awful problems. Life is often so difficult & relationships with boyfriends/girlfriends, parents etc always have there fair share of problems that, I remember when I was young ,felt so intense & unbearable .
Those of you with parent problems do remember that it is in no way your fault they have problems & sometimes living apart is the very best thing to do & doesn't necessarily mean a worse life for you. Rev & I have never lived with her dad & she says she is the happiest girl at school: she sees dad often & we all have a lovely relationship without living together.
Problems with boyfriends & your mood swings may well be down to hormones. Sometimes they can cause us to act out of character & feel very unhappy but at the same time feeling we can't stop ourselves doing or saying things we know we will regret. If this is the case then do see a doctor as some hormone treatment may well help.
Anyone can PM me anytime if they think I may be able to help. I had many unhappy young people to deal with when I was at work so may be able to help a bit & you know what they say, "It's good to talk". Good luck everyone.

Thanks you guys...

Lynx: Before I pretty much stopped thinking about all of this... now that I only have less than 2 weeks left, I really just feel helpless. But thanks... hugs always help.

Batty: Thanks for all the good advice as well. Hormones suck so much, and I've considered seeing a doctor about them sometimes. I might just take you up on that PM.. thanks again.

Ugh I get so frustrated at times! I want to move out so bad, yet I'm so afraid of not being able to make it financially...I feel I've got too much laying on my shoulders living here with my handicapped grandmother, who relies on me much more than anyone should rely on an 18 year old who's working full time and trying to get her diploma. Ok sorry that just sounded really selfish and pitiful. But anyways...I have these moment where I just cannot wait to move out yet then there are times like a few minutes ago when I was trying to talk to my grandmother like I was going to stay here..*sigh* I don't know what to do...I suppose right now I shouldn't really worry about it because I'll at least be here for another couple of months, but I'm one of those people who worry about everything, even things that don't concern me. Ok...I've said my sob story now *exhale* I'm done... I just need to figure out if I'm going to move or not-because I've got to hold back on some Johnny stuff if I am..
