Firecorn Bracelet King	3 years, 11 months ago by Firecorn So here’s the thing- at first I thought that I was bi but I have been more aware to my feelings and I think I am pan, I do like boys mostly but i don’t really care what you are as long as you are kind and we can vibe Also I think I may have adhd And I am always apologizing and doing things to try to impress others I have a lot of other problems but yeah
Firecorn Bracelet King	3 years, 11 months ago by Firecorn Also I have like really high expectations set on me by my parents when it comes to my grades. Ik they love me but like I can’t even really get a b. And we have a really hard grade scale at my school. I worry about what others will think and try to impress the wrong people for the wrong reasons. I am getting better at it but I am always stressed about if people like me or not. I don’t really care about the whole looks thing, but I care if people think I am fat or dumb or weird. I get guilted into things so many times because I don’t want to let anyone down. I don’t know how to cope with this stress but I am always worried about how people persevere me and my grades not getting lower than an A-. WHAT DO I DO😫😫😫😫
Elise64 Bracelet King	3 years, 11 months ago by Elise64 I probably have depression and I can’t even deal with it anymore, I don’t feel like typing everything out again but if you look at the post that’s similar to this by @ Potatopeel I typed something there
johnlauren Bracelet King	3 years, 11 months ago by johnlauren @Firecorn before you work on anything else i really do suggest working on your mental health, as harsh as that may sound, loving yourself and not caring about others opinions should be your first priority. Your sexuality can wait, its not going anywhere. As far as the grades thing goes i get the whole difficult grading scale thing. Maybe try rewarding yourself for every assignment or A you get done? (Dont make fun of me but honestly this is what gets me motivated) It helps me to do an assignment and after i finish one i reward myself by reading a chapter of a book i like. If your grades get lower than an A- i really do suggest promoting yourself. Say to yourself, "you can do it", and "theres always next time, we'll just try harder". I know it sounds dumb but for some people it works
johnlauren Bracelet King	3 years, 11 months ago by johnlauren @Elise64 i just read it, and i know apologizing doesn't accomplish anything but I'm really sorry you have to deal with that. As i said at the top of this forum post i recently got out of depression and i think it honestly helped me the most once i cleaned my room. Cliche right? Well, it works. After that i started showing more interest in my old hobbies- even if i didnt want to do them. If you always get in trouble for being on your phone or switch maybe you could find a hobby that gets you off electronics and is something you won't get in trouble for? It can be really difficult to find something that actually makes you want to feel human, and even if you dont wanna do it at first, giving it a try for a week or two can make the biggest difference. Something that really helped me was music, i used it as a way to describe how i felt to my friends without actually talking, and i also started playing my instrument and writing music a lot more. Now i feel mentally stable enough to give others advice, so trust me when i say the smallest things can make the biggest difference
kmmorell Bracelet King	3 years, 11 months ago by kmmorell @riley_fxX I used to have really bad anxiety, and I still have it, but I know ways to cope with it. Sometimes you feel like you have so much to do and there's not enough time, but there's 2 things you need to do. I always have a planner and I write everything down. And for the ones that have hard deadlines I circle, and if you don't get to everyhting, that's fine. But then you just move it to the next day! I used to overthink things so bad (still do) and it does get stressful. I just got a job and i was just super stressed, and I feel like our brain overthinks and thinks of the most ludicous and ridiculous scenarios. But I think that sitting down and realizing that you are ok and that everything will work out really helps and just putting the thing you are worrying about into perspective will help it become more managable? Anyways. Hope that helps. 🙂
kmmorell Bracelet King	3 years, 11 months ago by kmmorell @Firecorn Oof. Ok. 1st off. Parent's want the best for you. They want you to succeed and want you to become successful. And sometimes they are a little (or a lot) overbearing when it comes to school. Some parents want all 100's and some just don't give a crap about your schooling. HOWEVER, I say, just do your best, and if you don't get the grade you want, just tell them you were trying your best and that your gonna study some more or be more prepared for the next one. As for apologizing profusely and trying not to say the wrong things, I think that's what everyone does. I know a lot of people are trying to fit in, and trying to impress the right people, but you are gonna become stressed and anxious if you do that too much. Try to be confident, and if you say something wrong, then who cares, just live and forget about it. I know that i mull things around in my brain too often and that leads to me overthinking and getting anxious. I suggest that you be yourself and find some good friends where you can just relax and no one will judge.

kmmorell Bracelet King	3 years, 11 months ago by kmmorell @Elise64 I think I've talked to you before about this, but I'm just going to try to help 🙂 Try not to be alone for to long, you start mulling things over in your head and you start making yourself feel bad and that there's a voice in side of your head saying all tons of crpa things that are not true. If you surround yourself with people, you aren't really able to convince yourself those things. Get a support system. Whether it's a trusted friend (preferably an adult) or try telling your parents. I know a lot of parents are understanding, and others are not. But it wouldn't hurt to try. Depression is caused by a chemical unbalance in your brain where more of hormone is set off than what is stable. I know a lot of people who haven't had anything traumatic happen to them or remotely even sad feel really guilty that they have depression and feel bad about themselves while others truly have "a reason". If you are one of those people, DON'T FEEL BAD. please don't. Just know that you are always in control, and you can get through it.
kmmorell Bracelet King	3 years, 11 months ago by kmmorell @allialexis Hey there! I recently lost my grandpa this last month and it was really tough. There's like 4 stages of denial, but 5 if you really look into it. And i don't wanna get all like technical about if and make ur situation insignificant, but the first stage is denial, and that's the hardest step i feel. I know I didn't really want to believe that he wasn't going to be with us anymore. You said you had other deaths in the family, and I feel like this one is pushing past your point. If you keep piling all these emotions up you are going to start breaking apart and not be able to cope with it all at once. I know that your mom is pretty sad and upset about the whole ordeal, maybe you can talk with her about it and get through it together. As for school. I know that school is probably the last thing you want to do or participate in. Try talking to your teacher, just saying that you really haven't been feeling great, and you had a loved one past, you would be surprised to see the understanding and ways they will work with you to get those assignments turned in. Hope this helps
Elise64 Bracelet King	3 years, 11 months ago by Elise64 @kmmorell I literally can hardly tell anyone anything if I start crying and I go into my moms room it takes me like hours to be able to tell them something I feel like I can’t feel better about something unless I tell my parents and I feel awful whenever i do something wrong so I would literally have to tell them every time but it’s so hard that’s why I can’t even take it anymore. The first time that happened I literally was crying so much for like an hour and whenever I said anything I couldn’t stop crying and it took me hours to be able to tell my mom and I felt better and I felt happy and then all this had to happen and when I told my mom I didn’t feel better at all and I still don’t 😔😭😭 i feel like it won’t ever get better
kmmorell Bracelet King	3 years, 11 months ago by kmmorell @Elise64 I'm sorry this is happening, sometimes you just gotta let it out and then you'll feel better, and talking about it may seem like it's hard, but if you do, it'll be so much easier to cope with
brooklyng Bracelet King	3 years, 11 months ago by brooklyng I have a lot of things to talk about. Too many things. The only person that knows everything is my best friend and she knows me to know what i have is real. I have real depression. When i even try to mention the idea of it or that i might want to get a counselor for my mental health they shut me off and say i’m acting like this for attention and call me stupid or retarded for crying when i can’t take it anymore
Xxpuffish Professional	3 years, 11 months ago by Xxpuffish @brooklyng I understand this I have anxiety and some people think I’m faking it for attention when it really affects and alters my way of thinking and my life so I know how awful it feels to be mocked because of the way you feel I really hope you get the professional attention you need

BandGeek22 Bracelet King	3 years, 9 months ago by BandGeek22 I think I’m possibly bi it’s been an interesting journey trying to figure this out 😂
kmmorell Bracelet King	3 years, 9 months ago by kmmorell @brooklyng If you think you truly do have depression or are just not happy, talk to your doctor about it, your parents or whoever you talked to about it may not understand how you are really feeling or how it is impacting your life. If you can bring it to attention to a doctor, your parent's or other people might actually take you seriously.
Books4Ever Bracelet King	3 years, 9 months ago by Books4Ever So I’m lesbian and my friend texts me every morning so make sure that I didn’t do something stupid the night before. I’m so grateful for her because I probably wouldn’t be alive without her.
