Get the bus like the rest of us douchebag.


In relation to the thread I constantly feel alone and depressed. Right now it's just me and my mum at home as I study. My bro comes back on weekends as he works far and stays at my sisters. My bro is the one person who gets me and I get on with the most. I constantly feel like I have no good friends. I have a lot of people which I can sometimes talk to but I feel like no ones interested in what I have to say. I haven't had a proper girl friend before (only 2 kisses same girl). I feel like I'm quite ugly and I have nothing going on for me.

I suffered from bad depression for almost two years, it's not a nice place to be in. I still have low moments at times, but I figured out my problems were rooted in lack of confidence, which was a result of me caring about other peoples opinions.

When I figured this out for myself I decided I wasn't going to give a **** anymore about others opinions and do what I wanted to do, I'm not completely there yet, but it's the most progress I've made in the last few years.

The funny thing is, I've talked to councilors, I've been on pills, I've talked to a psychologist and none of them worked. The only thing that's helped me get better is me.

[dwimplepede]

Sure but I do t get depressed and go emo.

[nattyuser]

go emo.

We don't need that in here.

Have you ever felt alone like as if no one cared?

I know I have multiple times.
Recently, I've looked back at how I was in high school. I keep thinking about how I cared so much about who I was hanging out with and which parties I was going to that I ended up not talking to certain types of people because of how they looked or who they hung out with. And it wasn't just me doing this, but almost everyone around me. Now that I look back, I regret being so superficial and self-conceited.

Teenage Suicide Statistics
Suicide brings emotional devastation to children, grandchildren, parents, siblings, aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents and friends of the victim. These survivors are not included in the teenage suicide statistics that are available to us.

• Teenage suicide statistics are a part of these numbers:
rates for ages 15-24 in the United States are 7.9 per 100,000.

• 31,000 suicides a year in the U.S., the 3rd leading cause of death in people 15 – 24 years old, and the 11th leading cause over all age groups[4].

• Worldwide, nearly a million people commit suicide every year, more than those murdered or killed in war.[1]

• Global annual teenage suicide statistics, reported for these fatalities could rise to 1.5 million by 2020.

What if you had just ONE more day to live?

We sadly live in a world where appearance is everything. You feel the need to always buy expensive clothes, have cool friends, go to the parties, and prove a point to everyone around you that you're worth more than the other people around you.

The objective

This thread is going to be dedicated to help teens, whether it be yourself or someone else you may know. Everyone in the world deserves to feel loved and cared about by at least one person, once in this lifetime.
Here, you can post about how you're feeling if you're feeling overwhelmed or alone. You can also share your personal story on here to perhaps help someone who reads it.
If you do not wish to post on here for whatever reason, then you're welcome to private message me whenever. I will gladly reply, and if it's just someone to talk to that you're seeking and not looking for any advice, then just let me know. I'm not going to judge you or tell you how you should act.
Too many times have we seen teenagers take their lives because they felt like no one was listening, like as if no one was there.


What can YOU do to make a change?:
If you're still going to school, then it's obvious you know people who are ''unpopular'' or who are always alone during lunch break. If you've seen that one kid alone for the past few days, with no friends, reach out to him. I'm begging you to leave your ego behind and look past his and your appearance and just ask how that person is doing.

Get your friends involved in talking to people who seem to be alone or who you know is alone. If that person takes the bus with a friend of yours, ask your pal to sit beside him/her to talk, even if it's just for a few minutes.

Even go so far as to asking that person to hang out. Getting that person to just chill for a little while with you could change that person's life FOREVER, trust me.

Title= exactly how I feel bro.

[bojadada]

No matter what you think, there's always people that care about you. But still, being someone with social anxiety such as myself, I can never tell if people truly do. It'd be nice to know that someone genuinely cares for ME for ME, rather than me just because I'm a human like them. Man that makes me sound like an alien or something

Thank you for this thread OP. Words of wisdom.

[krokodil]

I am pretty anxious and lack confidence. So far I am trying to not care that much about other peoples opinions, but it's easier said than done.

There isn't anything I can just sit here and type to you to magically help you overcome the anxiety, it's almost always going to be a difficult, grueling process that you have to win yourself. Don't read too much into what people think of you...in fact a lot of the time not giving a fuk for these kinds of things makes you a more social and appealing person.

[VietLotus]

yeah ik the feeling



just like a potato






a very sad potato

[AWDriven]

I bet Abraham Biggs felt this way.
Oh wait..

Life get tough. Bigger you are, easier it is.

[Jozu777]

I never thought I'd be posting in this thread; not saying I'm too good for it or oppose talking about your feelings to others either. It took me a while to come up with the gut/courage to post in here so here goes. Since high school, through college and even now after college I find myself seemingly as a minority among my age group. Its hard for me to put in words but it seems as though all of my old friends have gotten into the "party scene" and clubbing every weekend; drinking and smoking pot..etc etc. I'm not one to judge or put someone down if they do it I just feel lost as to having none of the same friends I used to. I've never been the type of person to get involved with drugs or alcohol so it's hard for me to hang out and be involved with them. It makes it even more difficult because there really isn't much else to do in my town besides party all the time; at least that's what they tell me. That's mainly the reason why I got into lifting, to get away from them and make something of myself. It sucks not having any close friends to hang out with now and yes; I do feel like a loser. I understand it's not an extremely bad case as to what some others have gone through but it's been dragging me down and I had to get it off my chest. Just wondering who else has been in my situation before(and what they do to overcome/deal with it) and should I not care about being in that crowd and continue doing what truly makes me happy which really is lifting at this point. Sucks not having a social life now though, very discouraging feeling like this.

I can really relate to this. It happened before in middle school(gay I know) I kinda drifted away from my friend group and we made a new friend group out of misfits from all the other groups. We all lacked close friends and we became best friends pretty fast.

Now its high school, and its been 3 years, and I remember telling them a while ago that sadly, things would probably change and we might never be as close as we once were, we said we wouldn't let that happen, but I could see when we had no classes together and we started meeting new people that it was an empty promise and it just isn't the same. You can call them your best friend but when you only hangout with them once a week you don't have the same classes, and we can all feel that **** happening.

Two of my friends ended up moving away. One of them is ****ing himself over getting high on cough syrup and doing a ****ton of psychedelics, which I feel bad for because I told him about my original acid trip and I feel partly responsible. Hes become an ultra-hippie and doesn't listen to anyone, I can't talk to him alone because hes always hanging out with the stoners.

Another one hangs out with the wannabe gangster black hispanic crowd and while I have mutual friends in that crowd I don't hold the same values so I don't enjoy hanging out with them

Two of them just kind of became tools to sloots and are whipped as ****

I feel like everyone I know is just an acquaintance, people seem to value me as just a novelty, everyone always greets me with enthusiasm(not sarcastic) like "Oh its JOZU!!!!" or "Yo what up Jozu" but its like they just want to demonstrate to people that they know Jozu and that its cool but they don't really stick around much to chat. I've always tried to be a Renaissance man and put on a front so I've convinced people that I'm a really interesting person and **** but they don't really enjoy my company they just want to point out to people that they know me.

I only really have one person I consider a close friend. I've taken to just hanging out at study commons and talking to people I barely know that sit alone not really because I'm a good guy but because I can open up to these random ****ing people.

Nice op. Honestly i wish i had this when i lived w/ my dad like half a year ago. I don't think i was ever to the point of taking my own life, but i had so much negativity there. My dad was an abusive alcoholic and it just affected everything, my social life, school, and caring for myself. It would have been nice to talk to anyone. Hopefully people take advantage of this and use people willing to listen. repped.


I'll be open for anyone to talk to as well, pm me if you want to. I can help with advice, or i can just listen.

This. Dad was abusive physically and mentally (still can be, depends on the day) . My mom is an alcoholic. I had days where I just felt like giving up and sometimes I still do. I have to keep my mind busy 24/7 so I don't do anything stupid. It doesn't help that when people usually feel depressed, they hold it in and don't tell anyone. Hopefully this thread will help someone. We need positivity on the misc.

Depression hits everyone, or most people. I have Social Anxiety, Depression, and slight Borderline Personality Disorder. Oh, and yeah, I also am suicidal. Going to a Mental institute soon for some therapy and to get my life back on track. Life is hard, but there are resources out there (therapy, counseling, medication). Stay strong, and move on.
