I have big problems; please help me.

What will it achieve? yes, short term wins, but who knows, you could turn out to be something special. Kurt Cobain tried to kill himself aged 13, and life turned out all right for him.

Not exactly the best example for use in this thread.

Life between 13-17 pretty much sucks. Hormones raging, plus the control issues with parents. Sounds to me like you spend waaaaaay too much time at home, since you say you go to school online. It's tough to do at 13, but you need time away from the parental units. Maybe volunteer at your church or shelters. Get out of the house as much as possible.

I hope you'll share it with us when you're done. I find working on creative stuff like that makes me feel good.

And I'm really happy to hear you're sticking around and giving this more thought.

I second what Crazed Rabbit said. Please do share your story when your done. I like writing my self

Right on, bro! I wrote a long story once, and I'll give you some advice: if you happen to come across writer's block, get an energy drink, put on some gym clothes, and go for an insane jog. It always worked for me; by the time I get home, I'd be so exhausted and would fall asleep. The dreams would inspire me into a nice writing session when I wake up.

[Prussian to the Iron]

i have a pretty good idea of what i am writing about. ive already done the first chapter, and am working on the second. i cant post it until next week though, its on my other computer. look up "operation uranus" on wikpedia, and find the one on stalingrad. i kno its not the same name, but i doubt anyone would read a story titled "uranus", and saturn was another stalingrad operation...so....hence the name

This is really good news. By the way your frustration is experienced by many people at the age you are at, myself included, and the good news is that life does change and things do turn about.

From where you stand you cannot perhaps see this, but you will later on. Just wait until you start taking your life in your own hands and things will turn out much better and differently than you think now.

Take Good Care of yourself

[General Appo]

Well, I myself have never felt as you describe, but I can still only encourage you to hang in there. I don't really have a lot of friends, I've never had, I've never wanted to have. Of course people who are more social than myself will still find a lack of friends difficult, but just so you know that friends aren't absolutely necessary to enjoy life.

Try to find something that can get you through. Music, or a good, hilarious book. I've never been suicidal myself, but if I was, I bet Douglas Adams could get me through it.

Also, I know how crappy advice this might seem, but do try to talk about your problems with someone. If you are absolutely certain your parents won't listen, then at least someone at school. Heck, even someone at the local grocery store that you trust is better than no one. They will help you, if you just let them.


If you really feel cramped inside your home, why not take a walk? I don't know where you live, but a long walk in the woods always cheers me up and I know a lot of people who says it helps when they're down. Don't be afraid to try new things, you have a pretty unorthodox problem, unorthodox solutions may be required.


And well, probably a bit stupid this, but the one time I was really down, this song actually helped me a lot.

And well...ska in general is great in getting you back up.

[Che Roriniho]

Congratulations dude.

Anyway, from this thread responses, seems you're not as unpopular as you might think.
Everyone goes through what you've been through, just some have it to a lesser degree. You just need to pull through. Once you're out, the grass gets a lot greener.

Well done!

A note to all Orgahs who wish to post in this thread—being disrespectful and/or challenging to a person who has publicly stated that he wants to kill himself is:

1. Bad manners
2. Thoughtless
3. Irresponsible
4. Inappropriate
5. Unbelievably stupid
6. Tacky
7. Dangerous
8. Potentially criminal

I have already handed out more warnings in one 24-hour cycle than I like to give in the average month. Think before you type, and think again before you hit "submit."

Yes, people really do hurt themselves, and yes, they do it on teh internets.

I am honored and humbled by how many Orgahs have posted thoughtful, careful responses to John-117's problems. The few who could not manage enough common sense, common decency or common courtesy to avoid baiting a potential suicide have stood out that much more starkly in contrast with their peers.

If you cannot resist the urge to post a challenge or a snark at John-117's issues, be aware that I will be handing out warning points and bans as though they were on sale. Be mindful and thoughtful, or stay out of this subject.
