I'm in pretty much the same situation teenage-wise as DragonLuvr9677. I'll be a teen by christmas, but my sister is already. Shes like a shadow of her former self (though she is still crazy as hell), and I put it down to hormones. I think she'll get back to herself again... hopefully.
"Trying to find themselves" is no excuse for skipping school, doing drugs, getting knocked up, being promiscuous, etc, etc. Some teens are just stupid. When I was younger I did some stupid things, but not like you hear a lot of teens doing. I drank a few times, I had sex with the same guy for a long time...I never did drugs, I never let my grades fall...I had my sh*t together. Teens are just too sensitive. I guess it is good that they are getting it out of their systems...but a lot of them don't. If they have a child or get addicted to drugs it can screw them up for a long time. I have no pity for teenagers. They need to grow up. When they are laying in the bed with their lover the last thing they are thinking about is their hopes and dreams. Teens do what THEY want to do with disregard for any one except their "friends." They are disrespectful and ignorant. Not all of them...but the ones that can't even pull their pants up or cover their breasts...if they can't even do that they will probably never have a professional career or be taken seriously.

Sorry to burst this bubble but life doesnt get easier. I'm 21, and it's just as hard now as it was when I was 16. There are a lot more responsibilities now. Children, family. I moved thousands of miles away from my family with my son and husband becuase he's in the military. Now I find out that he's going to Iraq. Now thats hard. You take what life gives you and everything is for a reason. My teenage years were pretty easy. A cell phone bill is nothing compared to rent, food, car, electrical, and baby bills. I'm not complaining though cuz right now life is pretty good. You're still finding yourself, and deciding your furture at your age, well I'm doing the same thing. So I'm sorry to say that it doesnt get easier, however it's the way you handle that makes it feel not so bad.[MrsWifey]
I am 18 so most of the super hard stuff is over hopefully. Now is when i have to start worrying about car payments, bills, basically growing up. Sometimes i think that's just as bad as going through all the super awkward early teenage things. Right now i have no clue what to do or where to go. I am still on that staying up super late and waking up in the afternoon thing lol. Hopefully it all gets better.
thanx bunches. you actually got me excited bout the aquarium, maybe it WILL help me get my mind off things. Im looking forward to actually DOING something now too.
as for you entry-boys suck && now what your feeling yuk. wow that would have beena kick in the balls for him lol. I got this book "the breakup bible" its halarious & also sad & also highly relatible. Maybe something for you to read?
RYN: I personally think that the only time lying is cool is when you are acting on stage or on TV when you Improv--to improv is to make stuff up and go with it--but someway, somehow it fits. That's fun to me. But I have been in situations with people, particularly this girl, who literally was a pathological liar and she hurt a lot of people. There is nothing fun, nor funny about a pathological liar or a lie itself.
Well since you clearyly know exactly what it is that you are dealing with I would say stop wasting time on diagnosising yourself and figure out what it is you need to do to stop it--right now it just seems to me that you already know what's wrong and that's all you're focusing on--now that you know what's wrong, figure out how to change it.
