Have you ever felt alone like as if no one cared?

Have you ever felt alone like as if no one cared?

I know I have multiple times.
Recently, I've looked back at how I was in high school. I keep thinking about how I cared so much about who I was hanging out with and which parties I was going to that I ended up not talking to certain types of people because of how they looked or who they hung out with. And it wasn't just me doing this, but almost everyone around me. Now that I look back, I regret being so superficial and self-conceited.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

What if you had just ONE more day to live?​

We sadly live in a world where appearance is everything. You feel the need to always buy expensive clothes, have cool friends, go to the parties, and prove a point to everyone around you that you're worth more than the other people around you.

The objective

This thread is going to be dedicated to help teens, whether it be yourself or someone else you may know. Everyone in the world deserves to feel loved and cared about by at least one person, once in this lifetime.
Here, you can post about how you're feeling if you're feeling overwhelmed or alone. You can also share your personal story on here to perhaps help someone who reads it.
If you do not wish to post on here for whatever reason, then you're welcome to private message me whenever. I will gladly reply, and if it's just someone to talk to that you're seeking and not looking for any advice, then just let me know. I'm not going to judge you or tell you how you should act.
Too many times have we seen teenagers take their lives because they felt like no one was listening, like as if no one was there.


What can YOU do to make a change?:
If you're still going to school, then it's obvious you know people who are ''unpopular'' or who are always alone during lunch break. If you've seen that one kid alone for the past few days, with no friends, reach out to him. I'm begging you to leave your ego behind and look past his and your appearance and just ask how that person is doing.

Get your friends involved in talking to people who seem to be alone or who you know is alone. If that person takes the bus with a friend of yours, ask your pal to sit beside him/her to talk, even if it's just for a few minutes.

Even go so far as to asking that person to hang out. Getting that person to just chill for a little while with you could change that person's life FOREVER, trust me.

yes i have felt like this,

in fact this morning i felt like that but i am lucky enough to have friends that care about me enough to cheer me up

i guess we all have been through it

 

Haha.. Im going through a pretty rough time atm, haven't ever thought of suicide though. Life goes on.. And I've realized that, it might seem like your whole world is coming to an end, but it really isn't at all, things just carry on as normal.

My girlfriend of 3 and a half years broke up with me like 2 months ago. She's been seeing someone else for 3 or 4 weeks now, after having sex with him a week and a half after breaking up with me. She let me know by facebook.

This girl I got quite close with cut things off because of how recently I'd broken up with my long term ex.

Ohh.. And Im going to my friend's funeral today.

 

Sorry to hear it man.

Life does go on. That's the amazing thing with time, it heals ALL emotional wounds. You sound like a strong person, I think you'll be fine bud.

Send me a message if you ever need to talk.

Take care buddy.

 

I've had a breakdown before in my life; but quite frankly whatever happens life just goes on. I honestly believe whoever commits suicide is a coward, life is a challenge. You face a share of great moments and tough breakdowns. Giving up on life is like losing the game; Let alone that, anyone who thinks their life is worthless should look around and realise that there ARE people who care for them, maybe they just don't show it that well.

 

This post is amazing. I agree 100% with you, though it's hypocritical of me to say so, but life does go on. Also, Burdock, just like you said, life goes on no matter what. You're a really powerful individual to be able to think like that after what happened. I for one can barely handle anything as I have major depression (clinical)... Kinda tough, but I just need to convince myself that no matter what happens, life will go on. Just because I'm hurt doesn't mean I always will. Life moves on, so may as well try and enjoy it best while I can...

 

Yeah, I've felt like no one cared. Just like when my first post on this thread got deleted for no reason. Sometimes I don't know why i fucking bother.

 

Believe me, I know the feeling. I keep getting constantly reporting for "spamming" for bullshit reasons. For example, I said on a thread that someone was selling account essentially "How much is it? I'm curious I most likely won't by it"... I didn't say I WOULDN'T. Not to mention I get some guy get mad at me for giving negative feedback on his bot and giving him suggestions to improve it... I get reported for like harassment or spamming or something... Just search my name :/ damn it's sad, really. I feel like nobody on Sythe cares anymore. I remember back in 07' when I would read on the forums (I didn't post much). Everyone seemed so much more... Friendly... Now everyone just spam reports for stupid shit... *sigh*...

 

Yes, in fact in the last couple of weeks that has been happening a lot. I'm not thinking in suiciding or anything though, that would just mean giving up of everything, and if I do that, there is no way that things could get better. All I got to do is held my head up high and walk right onto my problems, to try to fix them.

 

I have - but, when I meet and see my friends and family, I realize I have more than enough people with me.

 

Why'd you make 2 threads?

 

All the time, but I always know my family does.

Anyways, I'm not going to sit here and write long paragraphs; Just want you to know if you ever want to talk to someone, I'm always on, so drop me a PM with your MSN and I'll be happy to talk to you

 

I thought this forums where to post in if you had problems...

I guess this should solve/help quite a bit tho...

 

Unfortunately, this is true. I wish people were not so superficial, our society would be a bit better. There's a lot of pressure on our look, clothes, and most importantly, our weight.
Maybe you don't know, but girls nowadays don't start thinking about their weight when they reach teen age. No. Girls starts looking up to models and girls on TV when they are 6-7 years old.
You all know that this huge pressure on the "perfect standard girl" have a lot of bad effects on them. Anorexia and Boulimia are the most important ones.
All those douchebags insulting normal girls about their weight and selecting only the girls that they can see their ribs are directly contributing to this "super skinny unhealthy breakable celeri eater girls trend".

These girls are totally psychologically confused and corrupted by others. Most of them develop anxiety and stay alone.

It's really pathetic.
Why date a SSUBCEG when you can't touch her because she might break in half? I mean, what's so interesting about it?

I'm not saying here to be fat or to love fat people. What I'm saying is that all of this is unnecessary and unhealthy and normal girls are much better!


This is the best thread I've ever seen on this forum. Thanks Stone Age Rebel.


Eluveitie

 

Thanks for this thread, I kind of felt like it spoke to me. It seems like everyone (and I'm not excluding myself here) in my Highschool has a massive ego, and it's easy to take it out on other people. I'm going to ask something too - please, please don't exclude or make fun of other people. My personal friend, 14 years old, has attempted suicide three or four times because his mom's a lesbian and people continually made fun of him for it. I think he's through with that now, but guys, you never know who it'll be.

 

This kind of stuff happens in every high school i'm sure but people dont realize how much its hurting someone when they make fun of them or pick on them. Very good post.

 

hell yea dude, I wrote an answer to this thread, it was long, but it was on topic and it got deleted for no reason. I typed out how I feel and about shit thats bothering me, just like the original post said

. I did that, but the fact that my comment got deleted makes this thread hypocritical to an extent.

 

What a thread, nice idea here stone age rebel, its awesome. Everyone goes through a phase in their life which makes them feel as if no one cares for them, Just as kfjjjdst said... "look around and realise that there ARE people who care for them, maybe they just don't show it that well." There are allways people that care for you, just push through the trouble you have and speak to somone. It helps when you tell somone how you feel. Even though i have nothing to my name here, i'd be happy to recieve pm's or even people adding me to speak, whatever the problem hit me up. Contact me at [email protected]

 

Thinking no one else cares about yourself is selfish to me.

There's at least 1 person that you know that cares about you.

Imo, that's the kind of feeling people get from time to time but it gets solved as soon as you talk about it to someone you trust.

No one should feel like this.

 

And what if there is no one you can trust at this time? Couldnt that show you feel as if no one cares for you?
