You don't say how old you are, but if you're wanting to get away from life's problems, that is totally normal! Everyone feels this way at one time or another. Depression is more common than people realize. So is anxiety.... the feeling of wanting to get away, heart racing, sweating, feelings of "doom and gloom", etc. Everyone is different, so the feelings will differ with each person.
Friends and family are people that will cause stress in your life at times as they are the ones you are closest to and you will feel the most stress with them and from them.... AND vice versa.
I say it's possible you may need to seek out counseling. I also wish you GOOD LUCK! :)

You're normal. Everyone goes through that kind of thing from time to time. Especially these days there is so much going on and very little time for us to just decompress. Most of us have cell phones and IMs and email and text messaging and we're constantly in contact with everyone else. On top of that there's work, school, kids, housework, etc., etc. This is called being overwhelmed. There is an old saying, "Stop and smell the roses". Too many of us don't take time to just stop and relax and nurture ourselves.
When you find that you can't stand the people you love, that's a sure sign you need to start taking better care of yourself. Turn off the phone, turn off the computer, take a walk in nature, soak in a tub, go to the movies, get a massage, spend an afternoon reading a good book. Do something that will take you away from the everyday stress and allow you to relax. By doing this you give your brain a chance to dissipate all the noise that's going on inside and you feel much better and better able to cope. After taking some time for yourself you'll find things don't look so bad after all. At that point you'll be able to decide whether you need to have a talk with the people who are irritating you about something they may be doing or if the irritation is your own issue. Either way, you'll be better able to take the appropriate action to resolve the issues.

It sounds like life. I have felt that way for a long time and I grew up in a very torn apart poor family. I have found that building myself up to be a better person (morals, standards, education, etc..) Seems to keep me out of that mode. It would make sense that you want to leave a situation that you are not happy with or maybe redo things you feel have been done the wrong way. I think you should keep your head up and focus on making youself happy with life. FYI I dont know the details on what puts you in this mood so I am sorry if I missed the point. Just trying to help. Have a nice day and keep smiling.

Sounds familiar. I too went through several phases when I just wanted to run away, but a good friend encouraged me to work out the issues I had. He told me you can't run away from life. So you need to learn to cope with the urges that get you so frustrated. Now I go for a long walk or drive with all the windows down and let the "cobwebs" clear out of my head.

sounds like you want attention. you want positive attention, do positive things - do sports, read, join some type of activities. i'm going to keep it real with you, aren't you tired of causing drama in the family, turn it around and you will surprise yourself. if you runaway, your family will have to call the police, and all this other unnecessary stuff because you want to act out - change for positive and stop thinking so negatively and one more thing everything positive will not happen when you want it to, everything great happens in time. good luck

I would have to say you are depressed. Depression shows itself in many different forms. It could be mild, it could be a general dissatisfaction with your life. Either way, find someone, a professional, to talk to. It could be you can get it worked out without the help of medication.

Yup, I have that 2. It could be one of a few things; time of the month, age, everyday happenings/situations, or not getting out of the house enough...

it's normal girl. maybe you might want to assess your feelings before you categorize them into the "love" or "hate" columns. te brain is a very complex organ and i think it's not right to think we can give names to what we feel when we havent even named all the parts in our brain ;)
