You're not alone. At least you have a girlfriend. My life sucks too.

I don't think my life sucks I just don't know what to do with it. I was gonna say this to. Life's not fair...

What are you supposed to do though? I've been trying to find positives in my life but it's not helping at all. I feel like I want to die, as if there isn't anything to be done by me.

Ask your girlfriend. I'm afraid I can't help you find joy in life because I have the same problems.

But realize this, and I'll be honest I haven't read any posts before this so I'm not exactly sure what's going on, but realize that wanting to die and wanting to kill yourself are different things. Do not get these confused because I once thought I wanted to kill myself, but really I just wasn't happy and wanted to die. So please, don't act on anything like that. It's once thing to want death for yourself but to wish death upon yourself by yourself if worse...

Just wanted to give my 2 cents about this.... Sorry. Carry on.

I did a few years ago, but I thought about how my life had just started. Things were getting really good, but now for the past year or so I haven't been happy, and it's been getting much worse lately. I do not want to kill myself, but I am just unhappy and don't want to live. I wouldn't kill myself, for all I know I could end up being someone that can help other people when I grow up, or have kids, it's just this part of my life that sucks terribly.

Girls who post on facebook a picture with a caption about whether to dye their hair a certain colour or not. And the picture is either in black or white, or uses some strange filter. :confused:

Lol............

EDIT: My gear grinder of the day (which is often days) is when people make fun of my religion...............especially on this forum :(
 
Something is quite wrong with the chocolate milk in our school. Terribly wrong. It's not the milk itself, it's the flavor! It just tastes so flat and the aftertaste almost makes you throw it up! Just after a sip of the stuff!

Christianity

Well, it's not my belief personally but why would you be made fun of?

That reminds me... People who force beliefs upon others or are indecent to people because they don't believe the same thing. I'm agnostic, but I don't care that you're Christian. As long as you don't try and convert me.

I used to be Christian....

Your asking me? haha :lol: wish I knew.........

That's just wrong. I could see close-minded people making fun of some less popular religion, but Christianity is widely accepted and all, and many people believe in it. It's just wrong to tell people what to do or make fun of their beliefs, no matter if it's religion or something else, and that there is a gear-grinder. As long as someone isn't trying to force something on me, or the gay guy isn't flirting with me, I do not care what that person wants to do with their life or anything else.

Girl on Facebook I kind of am sick of because of drama and being a major hypocrite. She's happy in school, then she posts "been a long day and I'm depressed". No, I guarantee you aren't depressed. Now, I know nothing about mental health but I'm pretty sure the only way to go from giggling to depressed every day is either a tradgedy or you have bipolar disorder. She certainly didn't have a tragedy in the family because the cycle repeats every day the same way... Ughhhh, I should delete Facebook. All it does is make me mad and jealous of those with more friends than me.

I hate it when people discuss their feeling in Facebook!

Let me say that I'm simply pointing something out to you: people can put on a happy face and act like nothing's wrong, when there really is something wrong. But she could just be looking for attention, like most people on FB do.
 
These stupid commercials get on my nerves.. Their just so stupid. I'm not gonna sign up to Netflix because they have a 🤬 beaver on their commercial with a British accent.

1,000 post! Woop!

Well she seems to alternate every day between having great days and being as happy as can be for a few days, then in a day it all goes downhill. But then she's happy again. I don't know.

I know I put a smile on for the world but don't have the same feeling inside.
 
Or do I? Well sh....... I'm at the point where I don't even know what I think. Like, do I want to be friends with this person or not? Is this what I want in my life? Is life going to be something for me just be content with or is it going to be something special?

Being a teen huh? Stereotypical as I may be for a teenager in some areas, others I'm not. Or am I? SEE? I don't know anymore.

That my (fake) friends, grinds my gears.
 
I'm a bit afraid of what grades I'll get this 9 weeks. I didn't do too well and showed little improvement. I really want to stop procrastinating but it's quite tough to do so. I really want to write in my planner to remind any homework I have but I'm always too lazy even though it's in something I always carry in my hands. I really want to get straight As, but I'm lazy to put in effort sometimes. The amount of lectures I was given on how important grades are already forced me to get straight As. But it has been rigorous, especially under my depression I contain in myself this year unlike previous years.

Then there's Midterms this week. The Grammar Exam I took today I studied quite little for as it was basically just subjects and predicates, but they were a couple that really rotate my gears (pun much?) & 9 times out of 10 I always get those incorrect, even if I try my hardest. The Math, Spanish, & Science Exams comes in tomorrow and the day after which of course I studied my butt off for in school. Perhaps it's just I don't have confidence. Nevertheless I'll have to concentrate my hardest on these exams. Hopefully it pays off nicely.

That's the thing for me, however. I love all school subjects. I'm just a lazy type, and plus I can succumb to total concentration when I'm mentally down, AKA depression. But that is pretty commonplace, anyways. Not one person I have met who is the smartest of the smart but has a bit of laziness inside of themselves. But for me my levels exaggerate, and will represent me pretty badly when I'm applying for a magnet school. Perhaps I'm just exaggerating myself. The high school life is very apprehensive to me, and can gnaw you down to your bones if you don't do what you're supposed to do, as corresponding students say. Although one or two of my teachers did recommend me that I take AP classes, which is a feat from a teacher. Said teachers even said that I had the potential to become a teacher myself, but I declined as I want to pursue Arts/Science.

We've just got Netflix here, and I have to say, it looks good. £6 a month, unlimited movies and TV shows. :drool:
 
You know what grinds my gears today? Car names. I'd give you some of the examples. Starts with the recent Honda P-nut, Tata eMO EV... Nissan LEAF? Oh... What else? VW UP?

Is really the future going to be like this?
 
PSN is grinding my gears right now! Says that I cannot add funds to my wallet, and gives me error 80023102 each time I try to purchase something! :mad:

Could it be since that I live in the Maldives, though my dad's card address is in India? :confused:

I've contacted our bank, who said that everything is okay on their end.

This has really been getting on my 🤬 nerves!
