Please learn to have a thick skin I know I know easier said then done. But you got to realize everything and everyone is NOT out to get you.

Learn to take criticize and failure with a grain of salt and keep it moving.

But of course if someone is harming you or etc. SEEK PROFESSIONAL HELP ASAP

I wanna share something with you all..

I remember being at my lowest the thing that got me through it was knowing that I didn't get this far to give up now.(GOD, positive energy and/or higher power what have you.)

Plus I was thinking if that moment was my lowest point logically the only other way to go is up.

So I took baby steps and I talked and spoke with people I could trust. Trust me it works and made me see what the true issue was.

Also if you're sad KEEP BUSY. Read a book, GO outside walk, hang out with POSITIVE PEOPLE and AVOID social media sites or limit it no more than an hour a day.

Aw, you seem kind.

I was talking about the "I don't care what anybody's gotta say" part

No problem!

No lol I wish I could be a teenager forever tbh

No I'm in my 20s now and **** is going wayyyy too fast man. Enjoy it while you're still a teenager cuz you're old before you know it.

Mezter

No. Life seems like it sucks from here on out

Pandora30012

At times, But I also enjoy it.

Sure. But once you're out of your teenage years and need to work as an adult, that's worse.

boygagaloo

Yes and no.

The only people that would say this are people who are teenagers currently.

Once you get out of your teen years you realize how easy it is in comparison to being an actual adult and having to do everything and pay for everything yourself. You're still mainly cared for by your parents when you're a teen and you don't have to worry about bills and you have a set schedule with high school, everything is laid out for you.

It sucks. Just survive high school and it will get better. I'm glad I didn't off myself before that.

No. I would rather be a teenager than a middle-aged/old person. Plus I actually prefer high school over middle school, and when you're a teenager you don't have that many responsibilities. Its only when you become an adult that you see how easy being a teenager is/was.

This is some great advice :hug

I was a teenager looooong ago. But yeah it was frustrating for me

No once you hit 20 it's acceleration-time

a year seems to go by faster than a season when you were a teen

Enjoy it while it lasts 'cos once you become 22 you may as well check into a nursing home. Seriously.

Vato

Not at all. Being an adult <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Girl, nothing but the truth. Being an adult has it's perks, just as everything does. However, it can be stressful.

Also, just time flies by. I'm already gonna be 23 in a couple of months and then 24 after that & then boom 30. Another thing, just go for whatever it is that you wanna do. Don't waste any time. Just go for it. Even if you're scared, just do it. Sorry, just had a moment. Lemme get it together.

Personally speaking, it isn't the WORST, but it sucks at times. :/
Not that I have much experience in other age ranges (am 17

)
Hope whatever is happening to you gets better.

No its probably one of the best. Like I was watching this movie the other day and it made me think about how when you get older and you have kids and theyre in their teens you pretty much just watch them live their life and live through them, at least in an average family.

The way I see teen years are great but 20's are even better and depending on your career path and choices your 30's are maybe the best time of your life then after that its all the same

No way.

Reinvention

Being a teenager was pretty bad what with the insecurities, sexuality issues, school, friends, family, community etc. It's just kind of disappointing cause you expect everything and get very little.
