We all have moments that just seem to go wrong but if you took the time to think about it seems ok for now!

Oh from the time I was 12 to 17, I couldn't stand so many things, I hated school, the bullies, just waking up Just to let you know....
Back then I thought it wasn't getting better, and everything was a waste.
I can't temember how things had a turn for the better, kind of hazy (I'm old, ha!ha!) but I think interests, reading about things I became interested such as plants, music, poetry, journalling and drawing, kind of took me away from obsessing with that I felt was wrong, oh boy, and did I obsess. . .still do a little, wish it was about keeping the house immaculate.
I use to be a fussy neat freak, mellowed with age Just to let you know....
I did express to my dermatologist how depressed I was, and having severe, scarring acne did not help either, it was horrible, went through 10 painful years with it, and now full of pock marks, but even can deal with it, even have decided to not have cosmetic surgery . . . what a change from the kid that couldn't stand for people to see me all pimply, and yes a little chubby.
The weight thing sad to say triggered me to being anorexic, another hurdle I overcame.
I wish I had something that would help you to have faith, that things get better, and there are the good days and not so good, but please hang in there.

Sincerely,
DE

I know what you mean, DE - teenage (junior high, specifically) were the worst years of my life. I got a LOT of attention for a physical feature that was beyond my control (I was top-heavy), my parents did not understand me in the least, and I had zero self-esteem. You could not pay me to relive those years.

The good news is that it got much better and life got easier, the older I got. So Miss A -- you have good times to look forward to!

Thanks you all seem wise and older than me to kow these things. I have zero self-esteem at the moment but I'm going to have something new done to me. Looking back doesn't get you know where but mving forwards does! So if you feel like giving up, don't because there is so much more you haven't seen yet. Hey come to think about it has anyone been on the london eye. I went a couple of days back remembring it was quite high nice view and you could see everyone like ants. It was my first time, you could see big ben. Hmm.... everything is going to be ok! {{{{Spike}}}}}

Oh so happy to hear that things seem like they are brightening. Oh man, we all know that rough place for teens, seems futile, but hang around, stay here on this earth, in time the best is yet to come.
Some of us "oldsters" (not elderly yet) can attest to that.
Somehow we all manage to get through those awkward (sp?) years, some sooner than others.
Take care and be kind to yourself Just to let you know....

DE
