i have not run away but want to it just seems that my life is a mess so i need to go and make a fresh start...

Answer 1

Running away is never the answer.. Talk to your parents..

Answer 2

Sounds like you are really troubled. Impossible to answer as no idea what your problems are. Try and ask yourself some questions and hopefully it will help you decide what to do. You say your life is a mess. Do you think this is your fault or the fault of others? Where would your run to? Are you financially secure or sure of employment if you run away? Has anyone been in the same or similar mess as you? What did they do? Do you really want to leave all that you know and love? If you have done something bad would it not be better to own up and take what's coming to you? Remember most things are a 9 day wonder and soon forgot about. Is there no one you can turn to? Sometimes a person distant from the family etc are the best people to talk to. Also there are many organisations that deal with certain problems if this applies to you. More questions and little answers I know but your posting is very vague and we are all just guessing how we can help you and could be on the wrong track entirely but hopefully you will realise from all the people answering you that you are not alone. Should you wish to give more information we could perhaps be more helpful but that is your decision.

Answer 3

I feel for you. Sometimes when we are feeling as you have described we really need a big hug and words of encouragement from those that Love us with no strings attached. If there is no one like that in your life that you can think of it makes things seem worse. Unless there is real physical abuse you really should find someone that you can talk to about this crossroad you are at. There are so many dangers out there and the predators that take advantage of those in despair you should seek all the alternatives. School counselors, church youth counselors, YMCA, older siblings or other family members. Even a good cry at times. Please give it all a chance and don't run away. I know that I would be worried sick and I am sure that others nearer to you would also.

Answer 4

Running away is not a guarantee of a fresh start. You need to face your problems and settle them and that will be a guarantee of a fresh start. Begin by talking to your parents and by looking at the decisions that you are making and improve on them. Life will not always go your way but running from your problems IS NOT the right solution. Take control and make better things happen for yourself. Good luck!

Answer 5

Running away is never the answer. Everyone faces problems and dilemmas in their life. You need to face them and do what you have to do to fix them or get over them. Running does nothing to help it. You can't do that all your life every time you don't feel like dealing with something. I don't know what the mess is for you so I can't say much about it. But it is always good to lean on someone when you need help. So don't be afraid to do that!

Answer 6

hi amz

sounds like you're having a tough time... Sometimes a new start can be a good thing, but the trouble with running away is that you will still have the thoughts and feelings inside you. Also its more likely you will have a friend or family to give you support if you stay put. I don't know your situation, so its hard to say - but I hope this helps.

Answer 7

Although we all feel like it sometimes when we are young, (I still do sometimes and I am in my 30's), it won't solve any issues. You just need to stick it out. Not sure what your issues are since there aren't really any details. If it's with your parents, you need to talk to them openly and calmly and discuss the issues. It may not feel like it to you, but they care about you and will listen and hopefully hear your problem. You will always need them. Even as you get older, move out, etc, your family will be there for you and you'll need their support in life. If it's friends or school trust me, it will get better as you get older. It's not too easy to believe now, but it does. You'll move on, meet new people and life changes quickly. You just need to get through this time in life first. If it gets really bad, you may want to consider counseling, as they can provide therapy/drugs depending on the issue at hand. I wish you the best. Just don't run, it's not worth the energy and time wasted by running away from issues. Deal with them head on and things will get better.

Answer 8

Amz trust me we all make a mess now and again the best thing to do is try again but running away is not the answer the answer is trying to see if you can fix the mess if not just say sorry and try not make the same mistakes good luck

Answer 9

I would never encourage anyone to run away. Things can seem hard at home when you are young but then you get into the real world and realize how easy you had it. If you are in harms way and living in an abusive situation then reach out and get help but if you are not then you need to talk to your parents.

Answer 10

Hiya, Please don't run away, your problems will always be around if you do. You will put your family through allot of anxiety and worry if you run away, is there no one you can talk to about your problems? a family doctor, or ask your doctor if you could see an independant councillor. Lot's of problems can be solved i have had many in my life, and i often thought they would always be with me but now my life is so much better, i faced up to them and sorted my life out You may feel alone but you are not there is always help just ask for it. Good Luck to you. x.

Answer 11

Please don't run away... THAT IS NOT THE ANSWER... this world is SOOO dangerous... Maybe if you feel you need a fresh start, start hanging out with some good POSITIVE people, and not negative ones that will bring you down, maybe there is a relative that you could go live with for a time. But please don't do anything stupid.
