I really happy to be a part of this. i will try my best to give advice on anything. please dont hesitate whatsoever to get in contact, im hannah btw :)

Life is nothing

im sorry i dont know much about that as i havent experienced it. my rents split when i was 2 & i dont see my dad so ive never experienced a break up as such as i dont remember. if they live in the same house it maybe because they dont want to split for the childrens sake. you could always talk to them and say "look if your staying together for our sake then dont, we would rather you be happy". as for your brother, dont try to let it get to you too much, hes obviously got a problem, just try stay out of his way. for the anger, why dont you get yourself a punch bag and gloves and express your anger through boxing! it will also release all them feel good chemicals get when you exercise.
i looked at your profile & you say your bipolar so i assume you see a doctor or are on meds. just be open to what advice and support they have to offer. i also see your 16, if home is that intolerable could you move out? i dont know how it works in the usa with school etc, but over here in the uk many people leave home at 16. the local counsils and government gave loads of support, especially if you have "needs". you could always get your doctor to say its making it real hard for you to deal with your disorder living at home or something.

i hope ive helped in someway.

I agree with everything. but i don't think that moving out could handle much, then it would seem like you are running away from your problems, rather than facing them

I will be happy to jump in and offer advice... if you want it that is lol...

Feel free to add me to the list and to PM me. I try to check in several times a day.

Hello everyone, Im back from the weekend. I know i said i was going to be gone, but i just had to sneek in a few peeks at this thread, i was just excited about it.

xx

coolies!!!

Everyone seems to be just starting their own threads still.

If I can help, I'd be happy to do so .

Im sorry everyone.. I want this to be successful as well.. but it seems not to be working as good as planned. Please everyone, we have plenty of people here to help! Anything you need to talk about, we can help you with. I know you all have things going on in your life, and thats what we are here for. Post in here if you need to talk, im sure someone will be on and will help you in a matter of minutes! Thanks for everyone that is willing to help..but unless we have more participation...i don't know how long this thread will last. :(

Thanks again to everyone who is helping with this..

Don't be to negative about it, give it time

I'm sorry but I see a flaw in your plan which is many of your advisors are young and not qualified to deal with the wide array of categories and sub-categories that fall under each emotion...

Again its a cute plan however, there are many fallacies that are currently against you...

^ Qualified people are not the only ones that can give advice. And just because most of us are 'young' does not mean that we cannot give advice. We, in our heart, believe that what we are doing is right. This is what i want to do with my life, it is my passion, to listen to people and give them advice. So i disagree with you when you imply that we don't really know what we are talking about...

I know that there are people against us, but we were willing to go against all odds and see if this would work.. and so far we have a helped a few people. And even if that is all we help, i feel like we have had some success, because that is a couple more people in the world that are not going though problems and they now know that there are people out there that they can contact.

I am sorry that you feel this way Noir...but hopefully we can change your mind.

I know you feel like this is not as successful as you would like it to be, because not enough people are posting here. Don't forget that they are still posting on the main board, so you and all of you assistances can PM them, and try to help in that way since this is not working as well as you wanted it to. Then you would still be helping people like you want to, just in a different way than you were thinking. Either way it is a sweet idea.

Oh and Noir . . . I definitely know where you are coming from, but it is also important to keep in mind the fact that though many are not professional, these people have actually been through the situations most of the time, and experience can often teach us more than anything else. Besides, it never hurts to try to help someone, not really.

And noir....alot of these people are young but so are the people that need help. therefore it gives them an edge that older people wouldnt have. being that they are more likely to understand where they are coming from. they have been brought up in the same era and will understand alot of the pressures they are under. they may have a friend that has recently been through the same or is still going through the same and advice can be passed on through experience.

ps this thread is now going to be a discussion on the effectiveness of this thread so i think we should start another one.

Noir it says that you are 21. So I am only a year younger than you. Age doesn't matter when it comes to someone experiencing something and then helping someone who is in or about to be in the exact same situation.
Yeah we should post another page.
PM me guys still.
CHEERS

I agree completly...I am going to bring it to Bob's attention about what is happening in this thread, and i will see if he will allow us to create a new one, because this has gotten way off subject.

Allow us to? cant we just do it?!? why is everything so restricted. :S

I don't know, but its all the rules, i don't want to get this thing locked forever.. so im not willing to take that chance.. NightmareChild and i worked soooo hard to actually get the Mod's to allow us to have this thread, that i don't want to lose it because of some stupid mistake..

Maybe, this should not be taken all to serious, as like it was professional help, it is in my opinion just a helpful chat , some optimistic words, to alot of problems that can help alot, certainly teenage problems
so noir, don't take it al to serious :)

^ Thank you.. and i agree 100%

If someone just knows that someone is there for them, and they have someone to fall back on.. that is great! :]

Ok well today i need some help.
i feel really on edge & i dont know what to do.
i was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder the other day & now i feel, well i dont know what i feel. at first i wasnt bothered, well i didnt think i was. but then that night i took an overdose n ended up in hospital for the night.. in hospital i wanted to die n i was caught twice by the nurses getting a knife out of the kitchen. i feel really uncomfortable around people and want to hide away. my mind is racing n wont stop thinking about everything. ive got this family meal tomorrow & i dont wnt to go, im dreading it. i dont know exactly what i feel but i dont like it. my cpn told me i have to keep busy this weekend to im occupied n distract me from stuff. but i dont want to do anything. ive tried watching tv, tried reading, tryed listening to music but i cnt focus on anything n get agitated n bored. im a bit angry as well i think. feel like i want to punch things or hurt myself.

Sweetie, I know it's easier said than done, been there myself, but don't hurt yourself!

There's people out there who love you and I know it now looks like your life can't possibly get any better, it will someday. Just hang in there and try to figure out what you feel. Once you've figured that out, it'll be easier to make it all better. Can't you talk to someone, like your mom/dad/sibling/cousin/friend? It may help. If you don't want that, try to write it out, I always just scratched like crazy, drawing random lines on paper and after that I tore the paper to pieces. You might also write down your thoughts and feelings and then drown them or burn them.

Don't hurt yourself though, it won't help much. The only thing it does, is getting you deeper into shit and you'll feel even worse

Im not trying to be overdramatic here but nobody does love me. i dont know what love feels like to be honest. i dont trust anyone to talk about anything. i keep distances in relationships.the one person who i could talk to about most things is going through a major depressive episode n refuses to see anyone. shes got her own stuff to deal with. ive tryed writing but i dont know my thoughts n my feelings n all i could ever write about was how good it would be to be dead. i've just made my mum a mothers day card which took my mind of things for 30 mins but now im not sure what to do.

Firstly, i want to say thanks to everyone who has PM'ed me saying that they would like to help, and all those who have posted on here. But as you can see, this thread is not going as well as planned, and i don't think that we need anymore people as of right now. If this does blossom and become a big hit, then i would love for you all to help! Thanks again! :] and remember, don't be afraid to talk to us!! We're here to help

Hey i would like to join up too!
