What can I do?

HI there so let me give you some background first...last year I was really down on myself. I got really caught of with grades and some really important friend relationships have been totally messed up. I was having thoughts about suicide, but I dont think I was going to act on them. I was just really sad most of the time, but when around friends I acted, somehow, as if I was totally fine. Anyway my parents found out and I got some help but they said I was fine so things went sorta back to normal. The friends that I had before are no longer talking to me and that was sad but i kinda got over it.

So now present day, Ive been happy and back to my old self, but Im starting to think about what happened in the past and how I want those people to talk to me again and how sad I was back then. Im trying really hard not to. What can I do to stop thinking this sad thoughts so I can be happy again?

Instead of focusing on the bad times, try to remember the good times you had with these friends. Just think of all the laughs you shared together, all the things you got in trouble for together, really anything about them other than the bad times.

I know how you feel and I hope you get through this.

Good luck,

I know how you feel, but the like he said, focus on the positives, why dwell on the negitives, when you have all the good times to think about. Or if you don't wanna think about them at all, just think about life, all you you wanna look forward to, like for example starting a family, getting a sucessful job, etc. Thats what I do when, it keeps me from dwelling on th past that was.

I was just about to say this. It is true though think about the good times. If it leads to bad times think about other good times. "let the good times roll" :)
