without looking like another overly-dramatic teen seeking attention/drugs? I've mentioned it before, and my parents have talked about it with me--but I get too embarrassed and start sobbing before I can explain myself fully...so my parents never get the full picture. They just think that I have a poor self-esteem, like every girl at my age has. How do I let them know that I truly feel that everything I say and do sounds/looks stupid, I spend hours in the mirror doing my make-up and my hair and I still feel ugly, I am too scared to death of coming over my pride and simply asking people for help when I need it, I don't have any friends, I keep feeling like life is a waste of time and energy and the idea of death is appealing? I tried for so long to put my feelings on the back-burner and pretended to be happy, but it just doesn't work.
