You're gonna hate this. but it takes time to get used to changes. Still, eventually you'll accept and adjust, and you'll find another balance that will feel more comfortable as time goes on.

All this stuff has left you completely off-balance, and you're feeling a lot of stress, right? Okay; so you need to deal with the stress, stick with it, and wait till you get used to your new way of life.

Do you have a hobby? If you can get yourself involved in a project, it can often take your mind off things. Goal-oriented work gives you a great feeling of accomplishment once you finish something.

Maybe you could find yourself a job. I'm not sure if you're old enough--it seems like you're a teen--but if you can get a job, not only will you have extra money to spend, but you'll have the chance to make friends with co-workers.

Spending some time alone, just doing what you like to do, is great for stress. go take a walk, or go rollerblading, or whatever. Sunshine makes your mood go up, so going outside is good. Writing a journal helps organize your thoughts, and is a good substitute for talking to someone about them.

Remember: Sitting in your room and moping is a Bad Idea. Being alone? No problem, but make sure you're doing something productive and interesting.

Being aware that you're vulnerable to depression right now can help you not to get trapped in it again. Whatever you do. you know what depression feels like, and you don't want to fall into that again. If you can head it off by consciously forcing your thought patterns away from it, then that's great. If you have to get a counselor and talk about things, then just do whatever works.

Good luck.

I am sorry you are sad. If you have been diagnosed with depression, you should see a doctor right away. You cannot make yourself happy without some help if you are clinically depressed. In the meantime, remember that life is one huge set of changes. Some are good and some are not so good, but things change whether we want them to or not. Look at it as a growing experience for yourself and try to adapt to these changes, get used to living with them and soon you will see there will be new changes. Enjoy the surprises life brings you and play.

Take a breath. You are going to be fine, Missy. When troubles come my way, i lean upon my friends. my best and probably the only friend I have at the moment is gone. moved to Montata. Sucks. I have my dog, and I lean upon the Lord. Sheesh, Don't know where I could've been if I didn't have my relationship with him. Girly. Life sucks. being a christian, life is supposed to be better people might say, but truely, Who are they?! It is harder, cause you have to stand with what you believe. Where i am going with this is that you have to keep standing, like a river moving around you. Try to ask you Mum if you could arrange a night once a week, or even once a month for a family night. games, movies, homemade popcorn. I've tried to do this with my family, but I don't think it worked very well. After a while, my parents came to believe that it was what we needed. Now we have friday Popcorn night and movies. Try t get closer with you Mum, busy as she may be, she loves you. It might be hard to see, and I surley know, but you have to know that a Mother's love is such a strong bond. Take time and don't worry about tomorrow. Jsut take one day at a time. I have my dog to tell my worries to. She is a great comfort to me at lonely times also. just move around and try new things yourself. Just keep going. Like riding a bike. You can stop, or you'll fall off. Just think on a few things. what is truely important to you? Why?
hey too bad you are sad, one thing you need to believe is that sadness is a situation you choose to put yourself into, we all have a choice to be happy or be sad each and every day of our life, our attitude towards life has a great influence on our being sad or happy, live each day as if it was your last on earth, live happy as if you will never have another chance to be happy again. sadness merely brings misery toi your life, begin each day bearing in mind you have a pass to compelete be happy, and your body will respond in kind.
