Hi Lucette
I see you have 15 posts already, that's good news to see a young person using this great forum. I'm glad you are comfortable posting here.
I can recall my teenage, early adult years and frankly, they were bad times. I was bullied, school was a nightmare as I couldn't focus (later found to be associated with my illnesses), friends weren't loyal, my mother was undiagnosed with her issues and I was desperate to get out of home and earn money.
Add to that my love of airplanes and any wonder why a life in the Air Force suited me. As soon as I turned 17yo I joined. I could have continued my education when in there but chose not to.
So, what can you do right now to help you along?
- take any mefical advice you are offered. You might be surprised with their effect. They take a few weeks to make change and you can always ask to be taken off them
- Understand your parents and try to meet them half way with issues. They won't be right on all issues so politely point it out that you disagree. Try not to raise your voice. Be calm.
- We only ever need one friend. Pick one. Keep in touch with them. Ideally one that is kind and shows interest.
- Exercise and relaxation.
- Less time in the company of your parents. Set yourself up in your room for good study practices, light music, desk, do your schoolwork better than ever and you'll reap the rewards.
- Continue using the forum to vent what's on your mind, right here in this thread. When you post your topic will return and people like me can see you've added as new post and we can respond.
I hope you feel better than you did when you wrote in
