What should I do about this,I need serious help

Okay…so there are these girls at my school that have been making fun of me just because I’m overweight.Not super but I have a bit of fat on me. They’re really getting on my nerves, I don’t even know them.Their names or anything. I’m a Sophomore in High School and I figured that all that teasing crap would be gone and they’d grow up and act like humans. I try my hardest to stay on the good karma side so I don’t say anything. I’ve had worse in my life but this situation is bugging me to making me cry while showering and wanting to cut myself. I haven’t cut myself but I have been looking at the razor I have in my bathroom rather tempting. My question is ‘What can I do to get over it?’ I am an artist so I try to let out my anger and depression in my drawings but it’s not like me to draw like that so people will question me if they ever see it. I want to talk with someone about it but I don’t know anyone that will listen and understand my problem. Help please! I’m crying as I type. My suicide thoughts have gone up and I don’t like it…Help…

Answer #1

honestly…kids these days are so cruel. You smart for not stooping to their level of amusement. But when you talk of thought of suicide there is obviously a major problem that needs to be addressed. you need to learn to stand up for yourself.. of course by knowing your worth…your a person inside an out an you need to realize that. Your life is precious an you should not have to live it in misery. I wish I could tell you that things get better as you get older an out of school…but they really dont. I still find myself in hard situations that make me question my own being!! Its a cruel world an you just have to learn to be strong.

as for those girls..they are probably just jealous..you may be slightly over weight but there is much more about you that is luring them in to making jokes…

all I can say..is if it was me in your shoes.. I would have probably already gotten into a fight.. sometimes standing up of yourself does wonders. try being more assertive. pick something out on them girls that you can laugh at an poke fun of…even if you cant do it to their face at least it will give you a good laugh be hind close doors..

hope I could atleast help alttle bit..

just remember to love yourself…

Ok first of all those girls are just acting like they are still in elementary school. Dont even talk to them. They are immature and are going to go no where with the way they act. Who cares if you are chubby. I grew up a ugly duckling and ended up a hot mama. If you let those girls mess with you then soon you will believe what they are saying. Every one is different and no one is perfect. Be you and no one else. When those LITTLE girls act like that then look at them and start laughing. Walk away laughing and if some one is with you look at them and say something like wow I cant believe they still have the mentality of the third grade. Always be proud to be who you are. Trust me I have raised 5 kids and they have all had little problems in school. But with your head held high and a smile on your face you can go and do any thing. Dont let their nasty little ways upset you. YOU are who you are. Be beautiful inside and out. Cause it sounds like to me they can only be beautiful on the outside. AND that kind of beauty never lasts.

Answer #3

Well sorry to hear your feeling like that. My advice would be, who cares what other people think of your body, I understand in highschool its hard because some girls act immature and do those kid of things like tease you. Ill give you a hint, if you just walk by them dont even look at them or let them know them saying this bugs you they will look like the dork in the end. You are more mature than them, so show it! and as for cutting youself… some people feel it is a way to let out the pain, but it also a way to get locked up in a room at the hospital. Take your anger out otherways, go to the gym, go for a walk. I used to take my anger out by turning up the country music and cleaning my house. and as for sucide, its wrong, and its really wrong that girls teasing you about what you weigh would make you think about killing yourself, think of it this way, if a man came up to you and said you look beautiful and honestly ment it (not all men like boneracks) would you still want to kill yourself? I am sure you are a beautiful young lady, dont waste your tome on those girls.

Honey, don’t worry about it. People are cruel in high school. It will get better once you graduate and get away from people you have grown up with, etc. I promise. Just hang in there a few more years. It WILL get better! Just keep holding your head up. If you need to talk to someone, I’m sure anyone on here would be more than willing. Feel free to email me if you need to. I will be glad to listen and let you rant. I will help as much as I can…

Answer #5

Sweetheart, I also was heavy in high school, actually all thru school. I got teased a lot. And believe me, it hurt. I am 31 now, and I have come to realize that although other people my tease you or call you names, they are the people who have the “real issues” in their lives. If they were truely happy with themselves, they would not find fault in others. Everybody is unique in their own way. You mentioned that you were an artist. That is great. You have a talent that may of us don’t have. That is something that makes you special. Be happy about the things that set you apart from the others. You probably have a big heart and a lot of love to share. Find the “joy” inside yourself. Be happy for the way God made you. He made us all different for a reason. If we were all the same, this world would be a terrible place. God made you the way you are for a reason. Because he wanted you that way. You may not know why now, but you will eventually. I have often asked myself the same question…”Why can’t I be skinny likethe popular girls?” Well, nowI know why. It has taken me years, but God put that obstacle in my life for a reason. I was 310 pounds last year at this time. I am now down to 190. It took a lot of hard work and effort on my part,and a complete lifesyle change, but I have sacraficed. I can tell you this, when I was heavier, I was more humble, I was more friendler, because I had to let my innner beauty shine out. I felt that my inner beauty was all had going for me then. I am still humble and friendly but sometimes I seem to think that “I am the bomb” and that makes my personality completely different. I don’t know if this will help you at all, or maybe just make you smile for a brief moment. But please, please be happy with who you are. You are still young and you can change your outter appearance if you try. You don’t have to. It is a decision all up to you. I am happily married with 3 children, and I can tell you that “Mr. Right” will love you for who you are. Just be “YOU”. Don’t let the other girls at school get to you. They may be skinny and pretty on the outside, but they are the one that have the nasty attitudes. And nasty attitudes are not attractive at all. Outter beauty will eventually fade and wither, but inner beauty will last forever. Remember that. You are beautiful they way you are. Don’t give up on yourself.
