I am only fourteen years old and I have been diagnosed with: slight neurotic behavior, depression, and border-line personality disorder. I have mild anger issues and suffer from mild to severe panic attacks. I have recently started seeing and hearing things out of the norm but can’t seem to tell my father. Sometimes I think I’m actually going crazy. I don’t know any other young teenager that suffers from any of these things. I feel so different. I am going into 9th grade on August 19th. In 5th-7th grade I had major social issues. It’s hard for me to make friends and keep relationships because I’m so quiet. If you are a young teenager (male or female) and are suffering through some similar things as I am, I would love to know

Hi,
I’m 15, female and know what you are going through. I suffer from depression, agoraphobia and severe social anxiety. I’m paranoid to the point where I can not leave my house. I’ve lost everything because of my disorders and everyone just says “take control of yourself and you’ll feel better.” What the fuck? People just don’t understand; you can’t tell someone with cancer to take control of their body and they’ll get better. So how is it any different with me? Just because it’s an emotional state does not mean I can change how I feel. It just happens. I’m very distant from reality and no one seems to understand. I’ve tried killing myself but it has never worked out for me. So I just live…every…single…day. I know what it’s like to feel alone, and I hope you know there is someone out there who feels your pain.
I wish you the best
Hi there,
I’m a 17 year old female who has had experience with several things you have mentioned.
I personally have never had depression, although I’ve supported a large portion of my friends over the years who have suffered from it.
I do suffer from anxiety/panic attacks, so I know what you’re going through there.
Rest assure, you’re not going crazy nor are you vaguely different. Many other teenagers are experiencing things just like you, some just keep it within themselves, therefore we don’t about it and we cannot help.
Take care.
Thank you both :]
I appreciate it. I really do
