Wow u r gonna start college? Thats fantastic...congratulations! U must be pretty smart to get a placing.
I have a nephew with cerebral palsy too. He's 19. He cant walk though...he is very much dependent on others to eat, bath, change cloths and almost everything else. He loves to watch cartoon though and is happy when we spend time with him. He will gives us a really big smile.
Sometimes we have to step out of ourselves for awhile and appreciate the things we have....that others might not have. I have problems too...i believe everyone has...be in emotional, physical or financial. Brace life and its challenges...problems dont kill us...its an oppurtunity to makes us stronger. U will do better in life...u can...u will! There are ppl and professionals who can help you...seek them out. And remember....ur mind is ur strongest asset. Dont let immature and selfish ppl bring u down. U are stronger than them!

College is a lot different than high school and the people in college can be from age 18 up to age whatever. I think you will find less teasing going on than in high school. I know when I started college, I enjoyed it a whole lot more than high school (which I absolutely hated).

A suggestion that was made to me during MY crisis counseling for suicide was to make a contract with someone I was very close with. A person I would not want to disappoint. I chose God. My contract stated (and you can write yours in your own words, but it must have the general idea) that I would not consider taking my life without first seeking help from my close friend. I chose God because I figured that I would come before him for judgment and how could I look him in the face and say that I broke the contract? I know that sometimes suicide seems like a perfect solution, but it really isn't. Yes, it does end YOUR pain, but it creates a huge amount of pain for your family and friends. They will carry a burden of guilt around forever thinking that maybe there was sometime they could have done or they missed the signal that you were considering suicide.

Suicide is permanent. You can't change your mind... there is no really easy and painless way to kill yourself... Sometimes if you are not successful, you become a comatose for the rest of your life.. or even worse you sit in a chair and drool on yourself... that is a lot worse than what you have now. If you are really thinking seriously about suicide, then seeking counseling is important and you might need medication to help you over this hump. Just don't give up... that is quitting and admitting they have won and that you are worthless... and that is not true.

If you are in crisis, please call a suicide hotline. Suicide is never the answer. Even though things may seem horrible right now, and have been horrible in the past, that doesn't mean they'll stay that way. But, you have to be here to allow your life to get better! You're at such a wonderful age for things to start coming your way. You're about to start college! That's a huge step in your life!

Personally, for me, things all started to improve during, and especially, after college. (I hope that gives you some hope). Allow yourself the opportunity to find out how your life can change for the better.

I know it's hard, but try not to let people teasing you get you down. I know that's not easy, but I think you'll find that happens less and less as you get older. The maturity of others goes a long way. In the meantime, try to ignore them. Make a list of all the great things about you that you can feel good about. And, don't say there aren't any. Start making a list, no matter how small the items you think of may be - do it. You'll be suprised how many things you can think of when you look with an open mind. And, whenever someone teases you, think of some of those things. We all are unique individuals with so much to offer! That includes you!

Once you get past your initial crisis, look into seeing a therapist/counselor. Some colleges even have them discounted or free! Therapy really helps, I didn't believe it until I tried it.

I think you are too intense of a person, do you know what I'm saying? You probably have too many strong, powerful emotions: anger, love, fear, sadness, pride, humiliation, etc. and all these are more powerful and intense in you than in some other people who are not as intense and do not feel strong emotions as deeply as you do. So how do you become less intense? As you get older you will start to mellow out some. Maybe try lightening up a bit. Go to see some comedies at the movie theater, try to lighten up and stop being so deep and serious all the time. Be a little goofy maybe. Good luck, and don't do anything rash or extreme. Just relax some.

College is the perfect place to start fresh!! You'll meet all new people, and they are less ignorant than many of the people you've had around you so far. You can join clubs and meet people with similar interests... the great thing about college is it's so much bigger than high school. You're more likely to find someone you have something in common with, and if someone teases you (which is very immature) you can just walk away.

Look at this as though it's a new lease on life!! Good luck!

Your life will get better.It's not always going to be terrible.There will be ups and downs.Maybe u should be more optimistic in life so that you can laugh through some things and feel better of yourself. See yourself in a positive light,don't think negative things of yourself.In addition,don't take yourself so seriously,so that you won't feel so bad about the teasing. I hope this works.We were created for a purpose,so I believe ending your life is not the way out. Find your purpose in life,then you can see the light at the end of the tunnel.There are other people who are more worst off than you.

21 years old? You've got a good amount of life in front of you, don't take it before time. Congratulations on starting college and dive right into it. Before you know it, there will be a whole new world opened to you and the unhappiness will eventually fade to the background. Try your best to let the past go. Satan wants to always keep it before us to make us feel guilty, but that's why it's called the past. It's already gone and done with. Don't let it bog you down. Be free of it....you've got the present to deal with, and just take it day by day.

Look forward to each day, don't dread it thinking it will be just as bad or worst than last year. Keep having hope for a brighter day. Speak the words out loud that "everything's gonna be okay". Just keep saying it. Good luck and God bless!

All I can say is don't do it. Go watch the the movie "It's A Wounderful Life". It's a great movie and you will learn alot. Another movie I am sure you have seen is "The Lion King". (I don't know how to spell it but here go's) A-Kun-A-Ma-Ta-Ta, it means no worries. Forget what's behind you and look to whats ahead of you. I just started colledge and I will tell you one thing, it is not at all like High School. You could wear whatever you want and no one will care. College students are in college beacse they are mature. If anyone makes fun of you tell them to f*** off.
