I just feel really low at the moment. I'm usually a hyper person, and find someway to atleast make myself happy but everything around has been like falling apart. And all these walls of support that I created for myself are starting to crumble, and I wonder whether they were every really there or just a figment of my imagination. I guess my depression has never gone, but the many didn't really notice that it came at all. And it's like I'm drowning, and I'm the only one trying to save myself. And I don't even know why I'm doing so, I just need to not drown. BELOW is SIMPLY RANTING. You DON'T have to READ. My mom and dad don't understand me at all. I'm treated like this teenage bitch, this teen who doesn't give a fuck about anything. But that's so not true. I feel that they barely know me, and who they think I am is actually the contrast of who I really am. And it's so frustrating, everyday, that they don't take the time to really talk to me. At all. And then my grades are never straight A's, there's always that one B..no matter how much I study, even after getting a tutor. I constantly feel fat, and big and ugly. Especially today. I lost my confidence suddenly. And felt like this piece of crap walking around. I don't know what started it all. I think it'll end soon too, but I just really need to cry or something. It all feels really hopeless, right about now. And dreary. And long. Sorry people. Really appreciate if you've read the whole way through. And if you've got nothing HELPFUL to say please, fuck off.

You know, I think almost all of us go through a stage like this one. We feel that we are not understood. We feel that other's perceptions of us are entirely wrong. We feel that we are more mature than we are being treated. However, the very caring of being treated like a little kid reveals some immaturity. A true sign of maturity is that you don't care if people aren't treating you as if you were mature. It's akin to calling up an ex-girlfriend to tell her, "I'm SO over you Marie." -- By doing it, you show the opposite. However, this isn't really something you have to worry about. After all, you ARE still a teenager, and you are still maturing. It's only natural for people's perceptions of you to lag behind your self. Think of it this way: if you are 16, say, then your parents have yet to really experience your 16-year-old self. They have a full year of you being 12, a full year of you being 13, a full year of you being 14, and a full year of you being 15. In fact, there are 15 years they have in their memories of you being less mature that you are at this very moment. It's hard for one day of raised maturity, or three weeks, or even eight months to overwrite all the past memories and experiences they have. Really, all I can tell you is that the best way to overcome these feelings is to keep pushing on. They seem to generally fade over time as your body and mind continue their development. Even though these things don't make a noticeable impact, they really do. It won't be until years later that you can really see the difference, but it slowly happens every day. The experiences and thoughts you have build you up, and as long as you continue to cope with enough of it to stay afloat, you'll pull through one day, and it will have all been worth it.
------- Long live love, and all her glory.

Well, I think a big part of what bothers me about the way I'm treated is that I don't talk to my parents at all. And when I'm not talking to my friends at home, and just doing work, etc..the long hours are lonely. And I feel, that it is under these circumstances, that I feel even more depressed. It may pass I suppose, but I can't wait for it to. I'm more mature than my age, I know that for sure..but they don't see my as immature. They see me as a failure, and annoyance, a weight. My absence is more calming, and I know that for a fact, so please don't disagree. Thank you for the post ^^
