Answer 1

you should try to see a specialist about this. you have to remember that your girlfriend is 15, not 18. the mother has every right to protect her daughter. maybe you are too young to be in a relationship. you've got alot of growing up to do and you also need to seek help with your depression.

Answer 2

I'm sorry your not feeling good! And sweetie, at 16 this is pretty normal. Most teenagers feel some depression that cycles in and out. Loss of appetite, sleeplessness, feeling sad - all part of a depressive episode. How long do they last?

One thing, that you don't need a prescription for, that could help is called SAM-E. It's an amino acid that is found to be lacking in many people with depression. A few studies have shown it to be more helpful than prozac. Here's more about it:

Also, try and think of good things in your life: first, you have a girlfriend! That puts you ahead of most teenagers.

Is sounds like your parents are cool with her hanging out with YOU - is there any way they can talk to your girlfriend's mom and convince her that the two of you will be supervised by them?

Being the mom of a daughter - understand that it's hard to trust your baby girl with anyone, especially a boyfriend! Just keep trying to show her that you're a good guy. She might come around.

i understand that you are only 16 and you probably can't help it but try to see a bigger picture here and stop being so dramatic. when i was your age i thought i was going to die if i couldn't see my boyfriend. everything seemed like the end of the world and i couldn't see past my emotional needs and when things didn't go my way, i often thought i might as well be dead. listen, unless your girlfriends parents are abusing her, her parents are probably doing her a favor. there is so much crap out there and influences that without guidance, a girl can have things happen to her that she never wanted. sure, you might be a good kid, and if you are, be a good boyfriend and make your time with her count in a positive way. help her stay out of trouble with her family, give her positive support, make every moment you have with her count, don't go off the deep end buddy. i wish i would have had a young man in my life at your girlfriends age who didn't act selfish and immature. you have the oppurtunity in this situation to be a better man and to help her learn to deal with situations that maybe she has no control of. these years are important, and i hope that you don't hinder you and her by acting like an 11 year old. suck it up and be a REAL friend.....listen to her, quit thinking about yourself, why are you puking if she is the one who is having a rough time?

Answer 4

You only 16 and at that age no parent wants to trust their daughter. You see each other in school. Lay low and don't cause trouble between her and her mother. She might already have given her mom reasons not to trust her. Your young get over this. You need to get out of this depression. Speak with your parents and ask them to get you some help with therapy. Crying won't solve this. Go hang out with friends. Maybe if you and this girl are with a group it could be different. You can't change her mom's mind by getting upset.

Answer 5

Ah, being a teenager can be so difficult. But, you have only 2 more years of it to suffer through. One of the best things you can do for your situation, and to prove to your girlfriend's parents that you are trustworthy and responsible is to respect their wishes. I know how hard and long a week can feel, but school will start again, and you can see her. Email her if it's allowed by her parents.
Understand: it is a parent's job to protect their children. They must train children to be responsible, consistant, see the big picture in life, and help them mature. That's what's happening to you this week. It is painful, but you will feel better, soon. Think ahead, look at your future.
When you spend a lot of time thinking about these challenges in life, you can let yourself become depressed. This is the time you have to teach yourself not to allow yourself to "wallow" in self-pity, and become depressed. Just as you have spent a lot of time thinking about this situation, you can instruct yourself to look for other things to think about -which will help you to feel better. Try thinking about what you want to major in for college, look into which college you want attend, what could you do for money in college? Where would you like to travel when you grow up? Are there charities you can volunteer time for while you are still in school? That's one of the best things you can do when you are depressed. Learning how other people have to live can show you how wonderful your life is. Maybe later, after you have earned the respect of your girlfriend's parents, she could volunteer with you. But don't try to make that a place to meet her that you think her parents won't figure out. They will, and you may never be able to see again. Earn respect. It is a treasure.

i can tell you are really in love it's an awesome feeling especially when you are young like you are. but try to realize there are many reasons why people are not able to see each other when they are in love.what will happen when summer break comes?or after you graduate what happens if you go to a college in another state far away. just keep her in your heart and know there will be times in your life when you won't be able to see someone you love be patient at least she didn't die or anything like that. when you do get to be together with her the wait you went through will make seeing her even better
