My life really sucks

[Elena_]

Honestly , I don't konw why I'm writting this ... but ... well , ... let's get started with the problems of my pathetic life:

1)MY SCHOOL - It's awful !! Why? Because its ONLY FOR GIRLS (I would like to have some boyfriends , not only girlfriends); it's extremely religious (I'm catholic ... but we must go to Mass once a week) ; and I don't really have any friends (well , I like all the girls in my class ,most of them are very nice , but I don't have the typical BF , I don't have nobody who talk with about "important" things)

2) MY MOM - She is so ... over-protective ... She doesn't let me to use Instagram , Twitter and all this things ... (And almost everyone has it)

3) ME! - Sometimes I think I'm biopolar , but maybe it's something normal in teens ... I don't know ... And I feel always depressed...

PS: Sorry if I've written something wrong ... and thanks for reading me ;)

I'm gonna be the one ass hole who says it, but your life sounds quite sedate and nice. You don't have a boyfriend, and you have a mum who cares about yoiu, look at it in perspective, things ain't that bad, are they?

But I would like to go to a mixed school (I'm too shy when I'm talking with boys) ... and my mom .... sometimes I hate her!! (sorry for this word , but that's the truth)

Yeee, bit overall, is life really that bad? Is going to an all girls school the end of your life? And talking to boys is easy, we are very simple minded creatures. Just treat us like normal people, because that's what we are, you don't need to be shy about it. Chances are we're more scared of you then you are of us :P

And ye, everyone hates they parents sometimes, but she's only over protective why? Because she loves you.

All girls school doesn't sound fun, not gonna lie, but it's not the end of the world, as Cosmic Noodle said. It might be harder, but you can still meet guys. You won't be stuck in an all girls school forever... what about high school, college? You don't have to rush yourself. Plus we live in a world of technology; Facebook, texting... so you're not completely shut off from everyone.

Now... if you were 18+ and she was still on your back about everything, that'd be another story... You're her kid, she's looking out for you. You may not realize it now, but someday you might be thankful. Admit it, teenagers can be pretty stupid and thoughtless at times, gets us into sticky situations.

Biopolar is a term that's over-used and underestimated. It's really a big issue and if you think you really may have a problem, best to speak with someone older you can trust and seek out help if needed.
Hopefully it's just hormones causing your depressed dips; that's normal.

Made me think of that^

You really shouldn't self diagnose, you'll likely be wrong, but, if it really is a concern, go to a doctor and ask him. 99% chance that it's hormones screwing with your brain, as happens to every teenager. But if you want, go to a doctor

Well firstly if you're always feeling depressed you should probably seek a doctor or a school counselor because they are the ones who are going to give you advice or even a diagnosis. You could also tell your mum of how you are feeling.
But i understand a lot, so if you ever need to talk about anything you can talk to me x

Thanks for all your comments :)

OK , maybe depression it's something normal , as you have said , because when I'm having fun , sometimes I forget that I was sad ...

And about my school , I think I will change another school the next year ... with boys and girls ...

Well, we all tend to get depressed, I know how the over-protective mom part feels, just ask her to give you some freedom, maybe that'll help. Changing schools may be good, or try finding a hobby after school were you'll meet new people. Teens tend to have frequent mood swings, and I really know that, sadly enough for me it gets a bit worse than just the normal puberty stuff, but yeah, you're going trough puberty, things'll get better.

Thanks for your answer ;)
But when I ask her to be "more independent" , she said "There are many rapists and pedophiles, " and all these things ...
But I can't stay at home all my entire life ...

Depression is not normal, and you don't have depression. You still have happy moments that let you forget you are sad, and I'm sure you are looking forward to a future where you will be freed from what is upsetting you now. You'll change schools next year, so you shouldn't worry too much about being shy around boys, you'll see a lot of them next year.

Your mother's right it's a dangerous world out there and she's just concerned about you. It may seem she's overprotecting you, but she's just being a good mother.

[Elena_]

Well , but ... if I don't get admitted in the high school that I like ?? I can't stop thinking about it , although I can't apply for it until March :s

One stupid thing about my mom: tonight , she didn't let me to STAY in my bedroom just because "my room needs to air out ... She is so annoying ...

I know about the Internet protection bit. I guess your mom was born in the 60s and they don't trust tech at least here in Spain. It's quite a bit of an issue but you should really talk her through it and make her realise how you know how to keep yourself safe out there. Don't become attached to it though, because if you do that straight after convincing her you'll be screwed for good.

Yeah , she was born in the 60s (how did you know it?)
But I've tried to talk with her about it .. but she is so stubborn

[Plane And Simple]

I knew r cause this tends to happen with people born before the 70s, so yeah. It really depends on how she reacts, but it's worth to try I guess.

Mmmm ... Instagram and Twitter are totally prohibited ... but well , now she does let me use my personal profile photo in Whatsapp ... at least it's something!! ;)

[Broken.Girl]

I know where you are coming from, up until very recently, my mum was very protective over me so I would have to sneak off to do things. It gets better though as you get older :)
