I feel lost...bad...fake...I feel like a loser...., Anyone else? Options

[babygrl23]

My life is in total chaos right now. I'm always in a bad mood, and I don't know why.

My friends aren't exactly "friends." I mean, sure we do stuff together, but the second I leave, the whispers start. They talk about me behind my back, call me a slut, and spread nasty rumors around my grade.

My whole life I've been pretending to be someone I'm not, because I'm afraid to show who I really am. If anyone saw that side of me, they would find out I'm really REALLY sensitive, not the "tough" kid they've come to know. They would find out that I'm actually really quiet. That I cry when I'm alone......and how truly empty and lost I feel.........

Anyone else feel the same way?

i feel like that sometimes.. but i am being myself, and u should be urself too. who cares what others think of u, as long as ur happy. nd if ur friends are like that.. find other friends that`ll like u for u.

[ikayto]

just slowly be urself dont just go 180 from how u are right now just slowly change to who u really are..otherwise you'll never be happy....yea....btw are u getting enough sleep because lack of sleep leads to depression >.<

[x0 sweetsorrow]

i know how you feel.. i was always tryn to please everyone and i was never myself.. and now i am.. my supossed bff never talks to me!! hmph. but oh well.. i got my kristopher and my other friends who love me for who i am so its all good! =]

[megumint]

yeah i used to be like that... sorta. well my friends who were supposedly my friends didn't act like friends. it got so bad that i even punched one.

so i was showing something that wasn't me, it was the nice person that always did everything people asked and gave them stuff.

then when they started taking advantage and being really mean, i showed the real me, which was really mean..

i felt much better, but i lost a few friends... but in being myself i gained two of my best friends ever! so there's nothing for me to hide around them.

it's also fun to be wacky and crazy and be random and bite people. that always makes me feel better. my friends let me bite them. hehe i'm evil

[f00LisH_h3aRt63]

yea i have felt that way before with ppl who i used to call "friends". for some stupid reason i felt like i had to hide the way i truly am because i thought that i'd lose my "friends". it didnt occur to me that i could do soo much better with choosing my friends until i actually found friends who i felt comfortable with. you need to realize that you wont truly be happy with yourself and with your friends if you dont share the real you. because pretending to be something your not wont ever make you feel good about yourself. i hope this helps.

find new friends who would accept you for who you are. stand up for yourself.

[x0143637x0]

you should always be urself. i mean like im sensitive too and im not afraid to hide it cuz my friends are there to help me out. if ur friends are gonna be doing those things to you their not ur friends their backstabbers. you should go find some true friends who is there for you and doesnt talk sh*t bout you. you shouldnt be hiding who you realli are cuz you cant change it

[Darkpekkle]

you should always be yourself. so what if people know that you're actually sensitive and not the tough kid. and those aren't ur friends if they talk nasty about you behind your back all the time. i

'm sure that once you show your true self, a lof of potential friends will realize what a sweet and nice person you really are... don't hide your real feelings from everyone. people like it and become closer to you when you open up to them. if you go on pretending, they'll think that nothing is wrong, and therefore will not be there for you when you're down.

best wishies~

[lAzN YiN YanGl]

wow im literally in the same position...all my so called friends used to be so close with me until this year (first yera of high school) and now they think about popularity and the "in" crowd. i still havent gotten past it, but just hold on to someone that you at least care about and know that its not the end cause as soon as you get outta school things will change ^_^

[babixlilac]

if u be urself, ppo will like u nd den dey are ur true friends...look past ur outside to da inside...

- smile

[ichiban]

be yourself ... and get new friends too lol .. because dey arent yer true friends nd all

[Squeegie]

yeah always.....lately im alwasy depressed...and lonely..no support from nobody but i guess its my fault cause i never tell my parents anything they cant possibly help me

[eboarder2020]

hey hun,

we all go through stages in our life where we feel lost and out of place. We all go through those times when you need to figure ourselves out... And to be honest, we never completely know exactly who we are... We never have the puzzle completely figured out, we know the path the lies ahead... You just gotta take things as they come. Im sorry that your feeling so lost, and that you've pretended to be someone your not. THings like this happend to me also. I guess slowly you gotta let your true self show... Slowly your going to have to let that little light inside you shine so that the world can see how great and unique you are. There was a quote by Bill Cosbey that said "I dont know the keys to success, but pleasing everyone is the keys to failure".... No one in this world is asking you to be picture perfect... The world just asks for your very best.... Take care of yourself kid and god speed

[F_L_I_P]

Its ok youll get over it i had a feeling like that before i got over it.

[islandkiss]

I feel that way sometimes..

[conster]

if im u, i would show my sensitive side but still stick to the tough side a bit, if they knoe ur super sensitive they'll start takin advantage of u.. but i wouldnt be afraid to show who i really am... but jus becareful if they take advantage of ur sensitivity

[Winter]

Yeah, I've felt that way before. Actually I still feel that way. I'm pretending I'm someone I'm not.

I guess the first thing you need to do is find some real friends. Not the kind you use for social acceptance, but real friends you can talk to. It helps a lot.

[soulovely]

i think you should just be yourself. people may like the quiet, sensitive you. and it's the REAL you that they like. who cares if other's won't like it... it feels way better being your true self than having to be someone else who you're not and live with it... there was time in my life when i cared too much about what people thought of me... now i dont' even give a f* you know? it's my life, i live it the way i want to whether you like it or not. it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks. i'm going to school, get great grades, get accepted to a great college, and build a great future. and those people will still be there, talking about me... wasting their time. so pshhh... let them be... live your life as YOU!

[WTFwasIthinking]

just get found, good, real, and starting winning
