Hi. My life story? I’m fourteen years old. My parents are divorcing, and I know it’s because of me, I was their mistake. My dad wanted kids at first, but my mom didn’t, now neither of them really want me. I have friends, and I seem like a normal crazy teenager. But hey, a smile can’t hide everything. My uncle committed suicide. I’ve thought about it many times. The only thing holding is my best friend, her brother died a few years ago. She has thoughts of suicide too. My words have always stopped her, I just wish that I could believe them myself. I’m the strongest out of my family, friends and fellow classmates. But I secretly cry myself to sleep every night. My gift of words has given me my talent of writing. But it all comes from the dark side of me. Nobody has ever seen me cry since I was about 8 years old. Sometimes when I see a knife, I hold it to my wrist when nobody is looking, and then put it back. I’ve been able to live with it for awhile, acting like I don’t care what people say about me, but I do and it’s pushing me, too far. There are rumors about me, lies, but it’s getting hard to keep walking forward. My friends see me as the not caring happy person that I wish I could be, but I can’t. Because secretly i hate myself. I’m never good enough. And the hardest part is keeping it inside. I know that I can’t tell anybody. I’ve been through so much. And I can’t keep going anymore. I’ve lost the path of life and I think that soon i’m going to hit a dead end.

Please don’t give up. From what I’ve read, you are such a strong person. And plus you are only 14.
I can relate to almost everything, especially about living with it for awhile and now I’m also tired of it and I was giving up too but soon, hopefully, it gets better.
Don’t let this bring you down, show people how strong you are.
I may not be much of help but I’m also like you and just know you are not alone. You don’t have to go through this by yourself. You have me and the rest of the people here to help you or let you know you are not alone. 🙂
You are far stronger than you realize.
And keeping it inside may be the thing making it harder for you.
Confide in someone.
A counselor or heck a stranger if you have to.
Let it out in some fashion and that may ease the pain.
Your parents are not divorcing because of you, they are divorcing because they have differences that they cannot resolve.
Has nothing to do with you.
thanks, but i just don’t think my friends will understand.
