I don’t know from where to start,so I’ll tell you about my whole life with a few sentences.My name is Lyubo(16 years old boy)and I used to be a very happy person.I was waking up with a smile,and was going to bed the same way.I have had allot of friends and all of them loved me for who I am and everything was perfect:friends,games,doing sports,girlfriends, laughing all day long…When I entered high school I met some new people who were different in a cool way.First everything was going normal,but one day I saw one of them training with my soccer team,so I went there and said “hello”. After this day he made everything possible to become friends and in the end he succeded.Michael(that”s his name)become my best friend and changed me entirely.I wasn’t laughing,but I was making such a good jokes that everybody else was.All the girls liked me,all the boys wanted to be my friends.I didn’t forget my old fellows,but I wasn’t the same.One day before 2 years,while I was sitting I felt something horrible inside me.Feeling that I’ll never forget.I became nervous and started to think what must I say,so the others can like me.With the waking up in the morning I was starting to think what must I do,so someone can like me,I knew what it was like to be perfect and after that feeling I thought that I was just a stupid and boring guy.I had forgotten who I was and I had no idea who I am.First I lost my self-confidence than my fake friends and in the end my real friends.I was alone.After a year of sadness I decided to do something.This took me 4-5 months of thinking and in the end I finally realized who I am.When I thought everything was over,the depression started again.Now when I know who I am,I also know what I really have and that’s nothing.I am writing this because there is still a little part of my body which wants to fight.I hope that there is someone else like me,who needs help or just someone to talk with.    Thanks for your attention,it means allot!

Hello there. I think I can relate to your situation but you have to keep in mind that my english is terrible beyond belief so my comment can be nothing but useless gibberish. Can you deal with that? I certainly hope so.
Coolness is usually just a nice shiny package cloaking emptiness. You think you need cool people? I say: fuck them! You are not popular, I understand it can be painful when you are in high school. But it never ever means you are worthless. Your self-esteem can not depend on other people attitude towards you. Especially not in high school where everyone is pretty much confused. Don’t ever try to change yourself only because you need other people sympathy. You can’t win in this game ’cause there is nothing to win.
If it means loneliness, so be it. I’m pretty sure that in time your old friends will get back to you or you’ ll find new ones. Just be patient like a solid rock, and try to have faith in yourself that’s really important.
I hope it makes sense.
It really does!As I said I thought about these stupid problems for 4-5 months and when I finally realized everything,I asked myself “the fuck?? what must I do now”,it never came to me that there is really nothing to win here”however this feeling will continue to torment me but I’ll listen to you and will stay strong.
Thanks,with only writing this you helped me allot! and you’re english is really good 😉
I’m really glad to hear that 🙂
It sounds like you are making great progress! I’m sure many people have said this and you may want to roll your eyes at me, but high school sucks! For most people, it is probably the worst time of their lives. Stick through it. Take one day at a time. Five years from now, you will be laughing at the “cool” kids who never grew up. Watch the movie Just Friends. It give you a view of what you will look back on in 5 or 10 years. You WILL meet people who like you just simply for who you are. I promise. Keep thinking positive!!
Thanks allot mate,words like yours give me hope to continue forward.I’ll surely watch this movie,only by seeing it’s name I am getting excited!
