Am I stressed or depressed?

Question

I have a whole lot on my plate right now.
I'm 16. And today I went to try and get my permit - once again I failed, so I failed 3 times so far - and I need to get my permit.

I need a job. No ones hiring. I need a job. I need money.

I'm not doing to well in school right now. Extremley bad.

I'm trying to lose weight. And yeah.

I'm just really sad, I have a whole bunch of stuff on my plate.

Stressed or Depressed? And can you help me cure it, in any way? please. god bless!

Answer 1

I'd say stressed. Try to bulk up on your resources. Like...take pre-tests for your permit and study for it more. Try to find a new strategy for school work that will work for you, study in certain ways or take personal field trips or try to find a way the subject material can relate to you personally. A job will come, just be patient and persistant. Losing weight, that's easy. Excercise cardio (run a lot), and don't eat processed foods. So...stick with apples, vegetables, cook your own meals from scratch. Don't worry about calorie intake, just if you eat less pizza, mcdonalds, and tv dinners you'll be fine.

Try meditation techniques or yoga or tai chi. That will sort your rushing mind out. Take the time for yourself every day, like pick a certain hour each day where you sit down and relax in some form. You'll be fine, time solves everything

I somewhat agree, with the person above me. However, at the age of 16, a job should NOT be your first concern. You said you are not doing well in school. Well, you need to focus on that, to ensure your future first.

First off, your permit. There is no reason, you should be failing that. They allow you to take the booklet home, to study, so do so. Go through everything, in that book. Have your family quiz you. If you get an incorrect answer, do not go forward, till you have that answer memorized. The next time you take the test, you should ace it with no missed questions.

One step at a time. Bring your grades up. When those are steady, then look for a job. If you can't wait, then try doing odd jobs around the neighborhood. Babysitting, gardening, mowing, washing cars, etc. Your weight, should be last, but depending on the job you take you may be able to lose weight at the same time.

Most kids your age, are depressed in some way or another.

Answer 3

Sounds like you are scattering your energy. Set some goals. Work exclusively on one thing at a time. Concentrate your attention and learn to be persistent, complete one task before moving on to the next. Make a point of observing what you successfully complete. You may think you have a lot on your plate but that is because you don't stick to one thing at a time and consequently don't finish very much. Even one thing completed will be one thing less on your mind.
I won't be long before you gain a sense of control.
Best to you!!

Answer 4

Listen take it easy, relax, take a deep breath. You need to study the questions you remember on the drivers test...
Pray
Your trying to hard and I think it's stress.
Try getting lots of applications in one day fill them out, take them back the next day and be patient.
Please just slow down, things will work out.
