I am 5'0 and have felt the way you do at times in my life too. Never been a cutter so I am not sure what to say about that one....
Have you ever tried to open up to your Mom??? instead of trying to get her to notice that you need help, actually ask for it? talking to a school counselor maybe....
I did that and they called and talked with my Mom, they set up for me to go see someone. It did help.
I never grew up in a religious family but ever thought about turning to a church by you???? A lot of times people there can help you. I know that God loves me even when you feel like nobody else does. There is a lot to be said for the Church. I lost my Mom years ago and there are many times I go and park by the church and just pray- people think I am nutz if they see me I am sure but it helps!
Whenever I start hitting a meltdown I just pray, it usually gets me past any pain or hurt I feel.
Seems like you are not comfortable talking with mom. Do you have an adult family member you can talk with? PLease talk with someone soon who can get your mom involved.
If you want help then tell your mom everything you told us here.
you do need help..immediately...i have major depression that is controlled by meds....the symptoms you describe are the same i had....get yourself help immediately....you will be glad you did...this will take time so don't expect immediate results..okay? it took four months to get the right meds for me...there are lots of people in the same shape as you are so know you are not alone......
you aren't alone, there are literally millions with the identical problems you describe, and all of them think they are alone too. My point, you need professional help, you aren't going to find it here. You need to be honest with your parents, and you need to get professional help.
first see wat are ur problems then talk to somebody like ur mummy! or go to the docter or something!
A couple of things: First is trust. It's hard to trust the person we call mom cuz: "OMG... what will they think of me!" But also know this: all of us at one point or another have had bouts of feeling depressed. Sometimes it is hard to imagine one of our parents EVER being depressed: but it's a fact - they Have. If you can't talk to your mom, see if you can get in touch with someone at your city or county department of mental health Or give a hospital in your area a call and ask for a referral center. Now, mental illness is NOT to say you are crazy or bad. It says like a broken leg or arrested heart: these things need help. Your weight for your height is perfect. But like many many girls out there: our society Demands slim, thin and in... so girls go to extremes to fit in. You have a beautiful life before you. Chat with someone who will listen. I am a medical professional myself... If you wish to talk with me: then please add me to your question as a contact. Just don't try and work this out by yourself. It's impossible to step outside of ourselves and understand things from the outside looking in. I wish you well my friend!!! Take good care! Dr Steve
well dont do it!
look we r here to talk with if u cant talk to your mom

You cant be happy because you're not letting yourself be happy my dear. Dont worry about what people think of you most of them have their own problems to worry about. At 107 pounds thats very thin dear. I wouldn't try to lose anymore. Please dont do this to yourself. Dont punish yourself. There are people out there whom would like to get to know you. Just open yourself up to others and relax. People say it will be okay and sometimes the person they are saying it to doesn't believe them because they dont see themselves getting better, they dont try and they dont wait. Please dont do this dear, it will be okay. You need to relax. There's so many years left for you to spend completely happy. There's a lot you can do for the world and a lot that you can do for others, let them see.
If you want to talk, give me an email, okay?
Put down the knife, the magazines, the propoganda showing all the scrawny celebrities. Build your own esteem, get some exercise and know that in time the emotional issues will pass as you grow older and your hormones settle down.
You'll want to bring this up to your school nurse/ school counselor if you're really serious about getting help. It's confidential and they won't tell your parents until you're comfortable letting them.
