Hey guys,
I know you don't know me but, I am really hoping to benefit from talking about how I feel to a supportive community.
So, lately I have been feeling really down and angry about various things going on in my life at the moment. I didn't really realise anything was severely wrong until one of my teachers called me to her office after class the other day. She was asking me what was going on and I started crying, I thought I was going crazy. I've spoken to her before about my struggles but, this time I couldn't let the words come out of my mouth. She told me if I didn't talk to someone about it by the following Wednesday she'd talk to me. Wednesday came and she said it was optional because I was so determined not to spill the beans. Thursday branded a new day and I couldn't cope, I knew I couldn't do it on my own so I gave her an overview what was happening before school started. We didn't really get too much into it because we only had a few minutes but, I don't really enjoy sharing my feelings. I feel they are personal, like intimate, one on one. I do believe I need some support and I am hoping to find it here.
This past week has really harboured more anger and hopelessness inside of me, with stress from both school and home taking it's toll. I have friends at school who love me and support me but, I am unable to confide in them. I have trouble trusting people. When you've been hurt too many times, it's difficult you know. Anyways, thanks for reading and by the way I am only 15.

Hi Teenytiny
Thanks heaps for posting back....Its always good to get a reply. I am sorry to read that you have been in an abusive environment . Not a good place to be in at home.
I did see that you have a legend of a teacher that sees you after class and keeps everything confidential too 🙂
I also wanted to say a huge thankyou for the mega compliment you gave about the 'amazing support' Its not that often we get such a kind compliment 🙂
We are here for you Teenytiny
My Best
Paul
