Fighting with myself. Help??

I’m a 16 year old girl from Oregon, and yep those teenage years are here,… at lest they are suppose to be. You know those movies made in the like the 80’s all about teenagers getting into trouble but coming out of it as a better person, well if only they knew how lucky they were. I use to be fun, not anymore now its all work and school. I had friends, now they are more like people I talk to once every couple of weeks. I have become a MAJOR loner, The truth is I miss the old me the FUN me. As much as I miss it, I cant help but feel okay with being alone, I just dont know if its normal,.. I’m really starting to think I fail at being a teenager. Blah, missing out on what suppose to be the best and worst part of my life, I want that and I’m ripping myself off. I feel like I have to different lives and I don’t know what to do, which side of me to believe, which side to follow and if this is even normal im feeling a little like an alien these days. Help??

Well how about you dont focus on what is supposed to be normal? What do you want from your life? Not what are you supposed to want or what are you supposed to do, but what do you really want from your life? If you dont like being alone, then well small steps, start talking to people again… I know it’s a lot of effort, but start doing things you’ve stopped doing… Maybe you have other interests you want to pursue?

There’s no point in focusing on what you should be doing… Just figure out what you want to do, what makes you happy (that is key here) and that is normal…

In psych abnormal is something that is either dysfunctional or distressing… so you decide whether it’s abnormal or not…
