Im really confused.. i am so fed up with myself.. i need help !!?
Question:
i always feel that my parents are prefering my younger brother which is 9. they think that he is perfect and that i am a disaster and good for nothing and they always expect the most from me..
i often think of commiting suicide or running away from home. but ive never done anything about it.
i dont have any self confidence and i hate myself so much!
i wish that i just would be the perfect girl i used to be with so much confidence, outgoing and happy..
if u think u can give some advice or help me in some way i would really apprecaite it !
thanks

Keep holding on!! I promise it gets better. My life was the worst between ages 14 up to 17. That is when i actually realized that life is not one big pretty package. I am now 26 have 2 beautiful girls and a husband. I very much enjoy my life. Life brings many challenges. Try to learn something new every day. If you do not feel important make yourself important. the number one way to is to volunteer. Or be part of a team. Help others they need you. Even babysitting gives you the feeling of being needed. I personally use to go to my local nursing home just to listen to my elders stories. I knew they felt just as lonely as i did and they have a lot to say.
Keep your chin up make your voice heard. Say hello to everyone you pass. you never know that person may be feeling just like you.
AND tell your parent how you feel with out your brother around to distract them. I promise they care just as much about you as him.
I wish you the best!!
Hey. Being a teenager is really hard. Mood swings are common and it is a very awkward time in your life. Trust me, things get SOOO much better when you get older.
I suggest you sit down with your parents and tell them how you feel. Tell them you want some private time with them.
Since your brother is younger, they probably think he needs more attention than you. That is THEIR mistake.
Talk with them. Things will get better.
It is normal at your age, your hormones are doing weird things, and switching from a child into an adult is a hard thing. If you think you could use some counceling, by all means, ask for help, but if it makes you feel better, my teenage years were hell. I thought many times of commiting suicide and attempted it once, and now that I think about it, my reasons were so absurd it would've been a complete waste. Don't get impatient, things will get better as you grow a little older, I promise. Just remember to be yourself, respect your wishes, dreams and values, and always give it your best shot.
