I have big problems; please help me.

As I said, it's typical.

Here's some rather counter-intuitive advice I can give, which I used to deal with my own situation: Learn to live without it. My parents were trying to keep a hold on me by threatening to take away everything that meant something to me, to break down my individuality and make me submit to their will. I defeated their efforts and eventually forced them to see that they had to deal with me not from a master-servant relationship but as an equal partner in the enterprise called Family. How? If they took away my handphone, I didn't just let it happen--I shaped my life around the lack of handphone. I switched to reading, and spent more time in school. If they tried to find trouble for my staying longer in school, I fought back.

Fights? Fight the good fights if you believe enough in them. Don't go quietly into the night. If you let things happen to you then of course your life is going to be crap. Isolated? So was I. Heck, so were WE. No one wanted to talk to me. In the lecture theatres in my later teens I was often the ONLY PERSON in my row--people would move away rather than sit next to me. So? I'm not there for them. No friends? Then you'll realise one thing that few people have the privilege to learn--you don't really need them. Not yet. Your life will go one far better, maybe even better, without them.

Being 13 is a terrible time, as Jolt's said--but I say again, you may say 'it's different, it's different'... but however you try to escape from the truth of it, the truth is: it IS the typical teen years, however much you may try to deny it. It's not the end of the world--it's not something only you have gone through. I wish I could be there physically dude, I feel for you and I definitely wish your parents were more understanding--but should and would build no bridges. We all must go through life with what we have, because you don't escape from life to go to a better place. If you're not religious, then you know life is all you've got. There's nothing to escape to. And if you ARE, then you'd also know that suicide would send you to a place far worse than anything you've got right now.

So keep living.

Put that giant knife you've got in mind away. Far, far away.
