Pennsylvania, Age 16.

My biggest problems are procrastination and girls. The former involves complete apathy, meaning I don't really care about my procrastination. The latter has all the emotion that I can possibly muster, and then some. There is this girl that I like... love, and for a while she was single. However, one of my friends decided to take it upon himself, after I had told him how I felt concerning this matter, to ask her out. Stunned I was, even more so when she accepted. However, he is a rather simple fellow, unaccustomed to the ways of the internet even (my area is rather backwards), and I figure that eventually I'll remain when he is no longer in contact (she graduates this year). We have nice conversations (this girl), for lengthy yet energetic hours at a time, albeitedly over the internet, but still, it's little different than person to person, which I enjoy just as much. I try to do little things, and she graciously accepts most of the time. So, here's to hoping that luck will be feeling benevolent on me.

A lot of people forget the people who are along side the ones with serious problems. My sister is addicted to all sorts of bad stuff, and I get the bad rep for it. Luckily now that I've merged into my group a bit more, they understand how completely different I am. It's hard living with a bi-polar person too...you can't be sure what you'll say that will send them off...

most problems are, worrying about girls and being self-conciuos about how you look and how you act, like trying to fit into a certain group or trying to fit in,
it is hard to kill those feelings and be yourself

my parents got divorced right before i started high school. In elementary school i always got good grades, now in high school, i am at the end of my junior year, and my accumulative GPA is somewhere arround 1.3, which isn't very good. drugs seem to control my life, i used to spend most of my lunch money on valium pills, until someone i know overdosed on pills (i can't remember what they were), however i still have a drug addiction. I am a happy person at times, however, i have been in many fights, ive lost some and won some. I was on the freshman basketball team in 9th grade, but i got kicked off before i even got to play in a game because i failed two drug tests.

Maine, 14, Name is N/A

Friends. They are all jerks, make fun of me, why do I hang out with them??? I need to find better ones, but I don't. Another problem is I am hyper active and I can NOT get a girlfriend. I can't help it!
I also procrastenate. I have always gotten good grades. Mainly because my mom pushes me too hard. I made honoroll (Lowest Grade a B, not a B-) and she got mad at me. I lose sleep at night worrying about it! censored.gif

I'm lazy. Just lazy. If I can't get amusement out of it, I rarely work for it. i do work when I feel like it. I'm just lazy, and I see little motive to do anything. Oh, and I'm sex-depraved, have an inconsistent sleep pattern, and the girl I believe I love and have told likes someone else and just wants to stay friends. But I honestly have it nicely off. My SEN/Starcraft addiction hasn't caused too many problems.. except that I'm bored when I get home unless I'm on the computer.

Tennessee 15 -

Smart Ass -

I've had a lot of problems, but one of the biggest I've had was, the girl I loved, moved away, so quickly I and her both couldn't get any contact information, I worry daily about her, I dream of her almost every night when I actually sleep, and my motivation for school is so low, I find it hard to even attend school, although my GPA is decent, [3.6] I just hate going to school, I transferred, I know about 5 people, the school is so different from my other one, I feel like a foriegn animal. My old school was strict, and had a mile's length in rules, and they had successfully trained me before I left, at this other school, I sit around, being mute, witnessing everyone else's energy, the teachers aren't the same either, they can actually do their job, but I'm from a rival school, out of the 4 teachers I have two, that love to try and watch me squirm under imense pressure.. The students come to me and ask why I don't talk, when I wonder why they don't talk to me.

Confusion surrounds my daily life, but, the thing that concerns me is, am I too faithful to this girl? What if she moved on, and I'm just wasting my time...

Hmmm, my addiction to StarCraft even after so many years hasn't really impacted my life. I'm not bored, because I'll just read, watch some random tv show, even do some vacuuming or something of that nature.

Alaska, 16.

When I was in third grade my parents split up. Three years ago a friend of mine commited suicide. Last year my girlfriend left to Alabama and my house burned down, we lost about 3/4 of our possesions. All of these rather major troubles have not really affected my outlook on life in the least. I'm still as happy as I always have been. If you've got problems the best way to deal with them for me is simply go on with life.

Man, I can only wish your life come down in normal streamline. My problems is more than trouble "Mixing with girls" or worring about "How I looking?", but it is nothing to what happened with you.
The main Teens Problems, Im thinking, are Alcohol, Smoking and Drugs.
As for me Im not smoking... but I really like beer (Im drinking it everyday)... On weekend I meeting with my friends and every meeting couldn't be without vodka, rom or vine. (Oh! Really, dont try Absent pinch.gif crazy.gif )...
One or two times I smoke dope - it really sucks...

Now Im thinking about people that surrounding me: Can they all be my friends? Only three or four, no more... cause everybody wanted from me something... I hate it... If somebody ask me help him, I will... but if somebody ask me do something without any reason, I will say: ****ed away!

p.s. Oh! Im from Vladivostok (Im only studying here) and Im 17...
p.p.s Thnx everybody for answers... I would try to open each problem...
If somebody wonted me posting me here my works after I protect it on conference just ask me for it...

Another problem I have in my area is that, well, most of the people are hicks. They're uptight hunting (which I have no problem with), blindly Republican, Christian zealots. Which is to say what you might find in the stereotypical Lousiana, Alabama, etc. All words of reason are essentially lost, but I don't consider this a problem anymore. It's just way life is, because there I know there is no way in Hell I will change any of their minds. About anything.

*Edit* That's why I live across "the mountain" (the mountain that seperates them from civilization, they actually speak of it with wonder, and I'm not kidding), in a small city called Carlisle. At least over here there are some intelligent people, probably because it's a city, and it's closer to Harrisburg, the capitol of Pennsylvania. I also have some more things to do, such as watching movies at a nearby theatre, shopping at a mall, or going roller skating. And that's within a three mile radius (which is a Hell of a lot closer than what it was before).

P.S. I still attend my old school district because I have friends there. But as some of you know, it's very poor so I'm now seriously considering a transfer to Carlisle, but West Perry still has many benefits to speak of. I definitely think that at least a good portion of the teachers there care about their jobs and know what they're talking about.

My problem is me and my friend Eric are the only logical thinkers around my school. Everyone else can't see the evils of politics and war and see it as a glorious way of life. 7 of my friends left school and started training early to be in the Marines (AKA Cannon Fodder with good weapons). Though I think logically and complexly, (if that's a word) I'm lazier than shit. Seriously. My short term memory also has gotten quite bad as I forget to write assignments down or I'll forget it as soon as I hear it. Main problem overall, is I can see life in a much bigger picture than most people on Terra. My life is insignificant as yours. My emotions don't work as well as they should. I don't care if someone just got an A on their test or got into college. It's just a way to spend your life until you DIE. No matter what, you're gonna censored.gif ing DIE. Get it through your head kids. DIE DIE DIE. No use ending it sooner or later. It's better to feel it coming so you can embrace it and see how useless life is anyway. Take this as a suicidal message? LOOK AT THE BROADER SCALE OF LIFE. Who cares about 1 soul. God? Uh-uh, he;s obviously abandoned us. He's probably having fun baking another Betty Crocker Insta-Terra and creating a different race to see if that one is as useless as ours. I mean look, we put the planet we live on in a shithole and we are so blinded by power and money that our world leaders are mostly corrupt.

My overall problem? Life is stupid. It is worthless. Deal with it and live. Remember, you're just going to die anyway.

My parents split up when i was about 4 which put me in a state od depression till i was 6.. since then ive got over it. when they split up i went to live with my father who is one of those right winged hardcore christians, hes really strict, and then he got married to my now step-mum sonia who is a real bitch sometimes.. sometimes she's nice but other times she just hates us.. usually shes bad to us when dad isnt around...

anyways 2 years ago i went to live with my mum who just broke up with her boyfreind and had an overdose and nearly died.. for the next half a year after the overdose she was just out of it.. when i tried to talk to her she just waved at me and smiled.. she wasnt there.. lights are on but no-ones home ya know? anyways she is very poor, poor women she has no job and is only surviving because were getting a pension from the government who says that she insane.. (but shes ok and a lovely mum now wink.gif ) problems are getting worse in school.. kinda like what shadowbrood said.. the teacher will have to have a sheet of paper for an assignment for me to remember it..

im also fat.. (but im a very good reader and writer and speller.. )

bnut i just get over all the billions of fat jokes a day (who are all naturally like 6 packs and stuff..) but sometimes they do push me over the edge and i go off..

but today was a good day smile.gif

Anyways,
I think life isn't worthless, to make the best out of IT, have your fun while you can, because life after death isn't certain. For those who can say there is I salute you, but I can't wholelly believe in God. I am christian, but... My faith is terribly shaken, I've come close to dying once almost drowned, which some people think would be a terrible death, but it feels like your being hugged to death, no not like a bear hug. Do what you want, while you have the time.

a 14 year old boy down the street from me committed suicide a week ago, it's very depressing, although i was never friends with him or anything, but he rode my bus and i knew him... he would always get picked on, but it never seemed to bother him, and its really sad because he hung himself in the tree in his backyard, and my next door neighbor saw him, but it was too late, people from all over the neighborhood were there, i just wonder why people do stuff like that... no matter how bad you have it... that thought should never cross your mind... if any of you even think about it... Please get help, you have your whole life to live, and people care about you
