I don't do youth group :/
Click to expand...

My youth group experiences were some of the worst moments of my early teen years. It was miserable. For a few reasons...that could take an hour to really talk about but it all went back to me. I had a huge chip on my shoulder and an inability to trust anyone because I didn't want to give anyone else the chance to hurt me again. And I only hurt myself. I was my own worst enemy. I made myself unlikable to make sure no one bothered getting close enough to hurt me.

I'm not saying you dive into youth group, dumb yourself down and hang out at the mall 24/7 like the majority of 14 year old girls....and I'm not saying you have to seek counseling. But I think you should consider letting down some barriers and giving people the chance to get to know you. You're an awesome person and you deserve to enjoy life. And enjoying yourself and enjoying people doesn't make you immature.

Also I went frogging a few weeks ago with friend (whose in his 50s lol) and it made me think of you xD :p

Awww thanx Corbin.
I try, sometimes.
I know this amazing person; she is like my big sister (She used to work at a camp I train at) She's been on my back about opening up a little and letting people in (or giving them a chance like you said)


Hahaha thanks for thinking of me!

Here's the thing. And I may be wrong. Shocking...right?
I don't think you can force it. I think God has to bring you to a point where you don't care what it takes you want the change. And He'll give you the resources and wisdom to do what needs done for you.

XD I momentarily considered an intelligent response to this....I got nothing :p

Throwing his age in there made sense at the time....but the frogs made me think of their president lol. I really need to consider the way I word things. Haha.

To get around the ten character rule, I just hit my space bar several times and then type a period. When the post appears, the period will be moved in close to the word you typed. It would look like this:

Maybe .

I'd like to have someone I can talk to in person. I'm weird like that but I feel like people care a lot more when we are in the same room lol

If you can find a therapist who will pray with you and for you and who loves you the way we do and Jesus does, then you have found a good thing.

Good luck in your search. As Paul said to Timothy, do not let them despise your youth. I believe you are probably much more spiritually mature than the vast majority of 'couselors' out there are. Remember who the One friend is that sticketh closer than a brother. I find myself alone at 49, but I am not lonely.
 
when a precious, person's heart comes through the net,
it blesses you... Jesus' Love always prevails,
not matter where we are...

so many have blessed us both while we have been here...TY and GBY...:):)
 
I Think I found a therapist

I was also told that my mom is thought to be narcissistic, so due to that and just feelings like I'm either being treated unfair, or I'm not good enough lead me to have situational irony.
I was also told that my social anxiety is because of how crazy all my parent figures have been so it just leaves me not knowing what other people will do or how they will react towards me so I start thinking way too much and freak myself out.
And that when something is wrong with the kid it is usually result of something of the parent.


Anyway; basically what they said was that they never had success with a narcissistic person; they never listen because they don't know they are doing anything wrong therefore can't admit to it; so the only way to help me would be to help me cope, but that usually happens when people move out.

Wow, that is rough. I honestly can't imagine how it is to live under those circumstances but I'm glad you sort of found answers to your problems. Best thing to do is keep praying since like you said, there is not much you can do now on your own.

Meh. I learned to cope before I moved out. That "no choice" thing really works for me. :)
