No, I'm not dismissing it in YOU.. I'm just trying to interpret what I heard Pinksoil say.

But Phil... calm down. Nobody is saying that adolescence means that you have no problems - adolescence (for me) completely sucked. I was miserable. Clearly you have a lot going on, but what I understood from Pinksoil and what I myself was trying to explain is that SOME of it will naturally go away as you have more life experiences and get older. I was trying to give you something positive to look forward to - and was not dismissing your frustration and confusion. I'm sorry if it sounded that way.
