What if I feel lost?

ok well hee’s the thing I feel like I’m lost and like not asnything and there’s nothing for me. I’m in high school and I’ve made so many mistakes and some major mistakes. I feel like I dont belong at school or in princeton where I live. I feel like an outcast. sure I may have many friends and I’m sorta in the popular crowd but I just feel alone and like no one really cares. I feel like I should run away or just give up on life here. I just dont know what to do anymore. I sit by some frineds during lunch but no one says a word to me but my friend jessica but all she says is hi and thats it. I sit by myself and no one cares. no one seems to care aboout me and I just feel like going back to cutting and jsut give up on life. it’s just not going well for me at all. my grades are falling and I get yelled at non stop for that but it’s not my fault I try to work harder than I already am but I cant please my dad at all. he wants me to have straigh A’s but I cant do that I can only gte C’s and B’s but thats not good enough for my dad. and I just dont know what to do anymore. got any advice?

I’m so sorry you’re having such a tough time and feel so alone. high school can be such a bad time, esp’ when you don’t have many friends. I was lucky to have a group of friends in school. I remember in my french class one yr I had no friend in that particular lesson and I hated it. I had to sit alone, work alone and had no one to talk to. my work did suffer abit due to that. it was similar in a couple of other classes sometimes. where I only had 1 friend in a lesson. so if they were off school I was alone. so I can understand abit of what you must feel like. it’s been a lone time since I was at school, but I don’t have many friends now. I see my parent’s and fiance regularly. I have a few friends, but I don’t go out to see them much. nearly all my friends are online. I luv them all. feel free to contact me on here or myspace anytime. take care.

I was very similar to that in my junior year of highschool. I never ever wanted to go to school, all I ever wanted was to sleep all day and I would go out and drive around a whole lot. I never had many close friends, or so I thought. I always thought that all of my friends use to use me because I had my license. I thought that they only listened to me because they wanted something from me. But when I needed them, it felt like I had no one. And like you, I had hardly any interests. and with no interests and trying to make good friends, I experimented with drugs and alcohol. To this day I regret doing a lot of the things I did, but it really made me mature as a person. and coming from that abyss, I realized wow, I do have a lot of friends.

sorry about my weirdass story, but like the others were saying, time will pass.. you’ll make and break some relationships. totally get out there and stay out there. by any means try to just occupy yourself and keep yourself away from cutting and any kind of self-injury. if you’ve already been there you’ll realize what kind of sturggle that is in its self. but my overall advice to you is. if you feel like you’ve got no one, nothing you can really hang on to and you see that everyone else does. a lot of them are just faking it. but you can do the real thing. be yourself, and don’t be afriad of what other people think, they are just as afriad of you as you are to them.

best of luck to you!

I’m at the same spot in my life, im in highschool, and I used to get pretty good grades but now I’ve got like c’s d’s and f’s. I constantly and getting hounded on for those grades. and I have plennnty of friends, but for some reason when im with them, I still feel alone. but you have to remember that there’s ALWAYS somebody who’s got it worse. and just think about everything that you have, some kids dont have a family, people that love them, or a school to get their education. we’re both still very young, and yes this lonely time feels like it’s never going to end but life with still go on, and you’ll make new friends and new people will walk into your life, and some will walk out. you just have to try and smile for everything that you’ve got and dont fret on what’s not there. :) good luck to you.

Please know that ALL of us struggle with these areas in our lives - we all have ups and downs, just seems like the downs last longer - if you look at the big picture, you’ve really so much to look forward to in your life - you’re still very young - just take it one day at a time - go out with a good attitude, smile and be friendly - other people will gravitate to you - don’t worry, ‘this too will pass’ - I wish you the very best !!
