Answer 1

When it rains...it pours.
I run a successful support group for teens/young adults to help them cope with their problems in life and also to get through some rough times in their life. I will tell you, I am sure I can help. First of all, you are way ahead of most of the people I talk to---you are at least admitting that a change needs to take place.
I do realize you feel very negative right now, and you have reason to be. But you can't focus on what's negative. You have to focus on what's positive. Like the fact that you'll be attending a community college soon. And that is going to open up some amazing opportunities for you.
You're going to have to take this a day at a time. Focus on changing little things right now. Start with your outlook. Look at everything rationally---be positive even when you're feeling negative. It sounds like you have real potential to turn your life around fast.
To better help you, what are some of your specific goals---what specifically in your life right now do you want to change? Email me at [e-mail] and I can give you some advice on what specifically to do.

Take care!

You can do it!!! if you work harder and are really determined nothing else will get in the way of you turning things around. You are very young, so don't ever give up! prove yourself that you can do it and you will. Forget the bad things that happened to you because that will only hold you back. Start over and this time focus on your life and forget about what others say or do. If you want to succeed, you have to let go of the past and stop making the same mistakes you've made before. So all you have to do is to have discipline... work for what you want and never ever quit. There will always be ups and downs in your life, the only thing you have to do when you're down is GET UP again... if you do that you will succeed! Don't let bad luck get in the way of your future! So even if you don't get to walk in your graduation, you can work hard to earn that diploma... which is ultimately the only thing we really want. Change your attitute and friends and girls will start coming around again. Nobody likes a pessimist, even if you don't say negative things some people can tell you're angry inside, so try to be a little more optimistic and things will begin to change slowly but truly in your favor... but you are the only one that can do that. Whenever something bad happens to you, don't let that stop you from obtaining success. Good luck!!!

Sounds like the year my prom date stood me up... I went anyway - alone - and danced with everyone's date cause they all felt sorry for me. I had a blast.

Point is, you're at a threshold in your life. You're coming out of a phase of life where you were considered a "child" even though you may have been responsible for yourself. Soon (if not already) you'll be "of age" and moving in the adult stream of life - whether you want to or not.

The change must come from you - from within you. Things aren't peachy for you, I must admit, but they can be changed. We create negativity in our lives through our own self doubt and negativity. Believe in yourself and things will turn around. Sounds simple; you might even consider me a dumb blonde for the advice. The fact remains that it is you who is in charge of your destiny. The only thing that will cause you to fail is you. Use every method you can find to surround yourself with things positive - music, plants - whatever it is that brings joy and happiness. Including the people involved in our lives can have mixed results because even someone we love very much (and those that love us) can have a negative impact on us. No matter what, believe you will succeed and you will. You'll find the equipment or find a way to persuade the school system that you'll make good. Search your mind and soul... the answers are there.

Answer 4

listen, you need to hold on and take one problem at a time. You cannot turn things around RIGHT NOW. Aceept that and you might be less angry. You have a lot of stree and crap all at one moment. Just don't try to handle everything at once. Let some things go that you can. Then deal with the most important ones. You will get through this moment so take a deep breath. Anger will not help you with any problems, or help you deal with them.

Answer 5

You are the only one that can control your destiny and whatever we may advise you to do you most likely won't do anyways, but if i were you i would study harder and try my hardest to pass that class and i would wait till i was out of school to get a job, as far as the calculator is concerned i would think very hard about when the last time you used it and seen it last, if you still can't find it just pay for it and tell them someone stole it. As for your prom date i am sure you can find someone else, because the girl if she stood you up its her loss your gain, Look at life positive if you look at all the negative things they will just hold you back so be positive and know that you will thrive and achieve. GOOD LUCK

Answer 6

Well, all this stuff didn't happen over night and chances are it cannot all be corrected over night either.
One step at a time.
First order of business....graduation.
Buckle down in economics and get tutoring if that's what it takes to pass.
Next, the calculator......if you just can't find the darn thing, talk to your counselor and get help making arrangements with the school to pay for it.
Once school is out look for another job and spend your summer in ways that will help prepare you for college in the fall. Like developing good eating and sleeping habits and stuff like that.
Now, about your friends and your prom date.......
hey, college is chocked full of opportunities to make new friends.....
and there will be other dances....
and who knows what cutie may be sitting next to you in your 8:00 class next fall.......
Life goes on.......
Best of luck.

Answer 7

well, if you stop hating everyone and everything things may get a bit better. Look for the durn calculator or save up some money to pay for it. Study for that class and don't slack. Find another job and work hard. Talk to your friends and fix it or find new one. Simple. Play the game of life and you'll win. Don't keep rolling the dice and not moving your peice.

Answer 8

Make a list of the things that are going wrong. Then think of ideas and solutions YOU can do for each of them. You can conquer things when you face them head on, and you'll be stronger in the end for tackling your challenges. Its hard, but you can do it! And you'll feel really good about yourself as you get stuff taken care of. There's at least 2 solutions to every problem! Best wishes...

Answer 9

One of the first things I would suggest is examining the items you mentioned and determine how many of those situations you created, or contributed to. The more you find that you are responsible for the more power you will see that you have over the events in your life, power to change them. We really only have control over our own actions and choices. People who consistently play the "victim" are saying they have no control, and are therefore prisoners or their own situations, or of other people decisions. Not a recommended way to go through life. The more success you have at changing these things, the more confidence you will acquire. Remember that these things did not all develop overnight, and will take time, and work, to correct. You are young and strong, set your mind for change and you will accomplish it . Good luck

This my friend is real life. Get organized. 1. Prom is not important, you can go single with the right attitude(friendly, and cheerful) or ask a girl who normally wouldn't have the opportunity, could be from younger one. 2. A daily labor temp will employ you one or two days to pay for calulator, yard work,weeding pays. 3. Your smart. I can tell. You'll be fine with the right attitude, think positive, ask God for help. I'll ask St. Jude to pray for you. Your ahead of the pack cause you have focused in on what needs to be taken care of. You can do it, or ask for help from parents aunts, uncles, grand parents. We were young once, we remember pressure. I'll be ruting for you out there! Go sport you can do it!
