I just can't seem to do anything right anymore. I am working so hard in school and with my personal life but I feel like I am getting no where. I always have to be the strongest person in my family and I don't know how much longer I can keep up this happy front. It's already cracking enough that some of my close friends are starting to see that something is wrong. I just want to be ok again and right now I think that will never happen. I don't know how much longer I can do this. I have no one I can talk to.

Hello & Welcome, Hopey87!

These are real questions, not rhetorical ones, and please feel free to ignore them:
  • Why is it you have "to be the strongest person in my family?"
  • What is the practical purpose of you keeping up a "happy front?"
Bending under the weight of burdens is one thing; breaking under them is far more serious.

Hi, Hopey87! Welcome to PC. I'm sorry that you are going through this. Is there anyone you can talk to? Maybe one of your close friends, if you really trust them... If you can't find someone, we are always here to talk. You can PM me if you want
