Answer 1

What you are feeling is not uncommon among teens.
I think I'm hearing a person who expresses strong emotional needs. It sounds as if you are unable to find satisfaction in the relationships you currently have, and you are basing your emotions on that. Your emotions can flip on you if all is not going as you wish.

Here's a suggestion
Would you feel more fulfilled and secure if your relationships were few, but deeper? Would you feel less insecure if you didn't constantly seek out new friends?

You might find that you could be benefited by having a few talks with a counselor at school or at church. Meeting weekly with an older, adult Mentor can be helpful to have a place to ask your questions and to hear wisdom in the answers.

If you try these other approaches, and can't get a handle on your emotional problems, if depression takes over, then ask to see your family Dr. Allow the family Dr. to make the recommendation of a psychologist or psychiatrist to your parents. That's probably the easiest way for you to go about getting help.

It may be surprising to you, some of your friends as a teen will still be your friends throughout your lifetime. Although sometimes living far away for many years, you will feel very comfortable with each other when you meet again many years from now.

Choose your friends wisely. Encourage them and be encouraged by your friends. But, don't let your friends define the who of who you are. Be your own person.

Answer 2

The person below me had a right on target answer, you sound like you need to find your own innerself and figure out why your this way, pyschologists know the right questions to lead up to realizing why your that way and what you need to do next therapy is not for pyschos and people who need to be restrained in a straight jacket, its just for people who need help, just like you would visit the doctor for an ache just think of it as an ache emotionally, hope i could help :]

Don't be so quick to think your parents won't understand - it's a normal affliction for millions of people. It's called co-dependency issues, and can be helped with professional treatment.

Just because your parents are old now, once they were kids...
