Going through a hard time...

[Baby Joker]

I can't take any more of this!!!

I'm starting High School soon. And it's the end of the school year. I'm stressing myself to a fever. Litarally.

A friend of mine who's like a brother to me is worrying the living hell out of me!!! He's only 15 and he's been locked up. Locked up, smoked a joint. The moron got asthma for doing dope.

My parents are contstantly fighting. They don't even bother to go somewhere else and fight. They fight right infront of me. I can't stand it when my dad yells!! 

My dad told me the other day I was all talk. That just stuck with me. Even now I can't forget it.

now I'm starting to cry...

Has anyone else been through this? Felt like how I do? I need to know how to deal. I don't know how long it is until I break.

well first of all, ya need to relax!!
getting yourself sick, won't help any of those situations!!! 

next, you need to not sweat high school!!
it's just a bigger place to got to school, and more people to make friend's with!!  8)

there's only so much you can do, about your friend!
he has to make his own desicision's, and ultimately he will.
all you can do is let him know how you feel about the thing's he's doing, and hope he wake's the hell up!!
and if he doesn't, maybe ya shouldn't be hangin with him!
and worry a little less about your friend, and more about you!!
(make sure his bad habit's don't rub off on you!) 

parent's fighting, you have absolutely no control over that, what so ever!!
so, don't even try!!
they have they're own issue's to work out, and that's between them!!
i'm sure the reason they're fighting has NOTHING to do with you, so don't even think that!! 
they're going to have to figure it out, for themselves!
so, there's really not a whole lot you can do, and like i said makin yourself sick won't help!!
it suck's, i know!!

so just try and realx, a bit!
thing's are going to happen, that's life!
and almost all thing's you mentioned, you can't control!
but, you can control your actions, and the thing's you do, and the way you act!!
so that's what i would focus on, if i were you!!
you worry about important thing's like, SCHOOL!!!!!!! LOL

ya get me?
stiff chin, little cutie!!
it'll get better!!

im sorry baby*takes off my jacket and comforts u

Well, I don't have parents but one thing that would help me out was to get out of the house for a while or put on my headphones and listen to some soft music. Don't worry, adults, we argue for anything, but Uncle Mike is right, its not your fault....never think that ok?

Also don't worry about school, high school is fun if you hang out with the right people who accept you for who you are and REALLY care about you. Try to have a good time in school, but also focus in class. Give a hand to those who need it, but never let yourself go. Your friend should know what is right for him...if he or she chooses to ignore it....then it is not your fault let them deal with it.

I am sure your dad didn't mean it, he was just mad. If you ever need to talk, just PM any of us. If you feel more comfortable PM one of the girls. I am sure they like us woulnd't mind talking to you! Cheer up girl!!

Your Friend,
Steve

Baby, you just need to step back for a minute and take a deep breath.  First, don't worry about high school.  You'll be fine.  It seems like the whole world now but high school will go by quickly and you'll make it through.  Just know who your friends are and help each other out.  Ok...All parents fight in front of their kids.  It happened so much in my house growing up my brother and sister would have the popcorn ready for the big show!  Seriously, when it happens just go to your room and chill out.  Put on some music and try to relax.  If they had a convention for "Kids With Normal Parents" you wouldn't get a good checker game going.  And don't forget you can always come on here.  We're always open!

yeah dude, i totally agree with SHM.

y'know, what you should do to vent your anger is take up the Guitar or Drums, and just blast the hell out of it when your annoyed.

But seriously man, thing's will get better, ive had to deal that that sort've stuff too.

[Baby Joker]

Thanks all...I appreciate it.
I know there's not alot I can do about it. I remember this one time when my parents where fighting severly. I woke up my brother crying. All he did was hug me and tell me it's not my fault.

I don't know what's gonna happen. I don't know if things are gonna stay like this or not.

You will find that once you start High School you'll be spending less and less time around your house anyway. Besides the new friends and social activities you will have a whole new world of extra carricular stuff that you can get involved in. Sports, cheerleading, clubs, art, music...............pretty soon you'll have so much going on you won't even notice you're parents fighting.

High School is as much a learning experience for you as a person as it is education wise. Take a deep breath, take it all in, & try to make the most out of it cause soon it will all be over and you'll be steppin' out into the world on your own.

Best of luck to you.

going to high school will be fine, now i dont know how the american school system works(i hear some places dont have school uniform, how sweet is that!? we gotta wear these stupid sweaters that make me look like a faggot). just make sure you don't make a bad impression, my first day at secondary school i made 4 friends and 12 enemies(yeah, i was a punk) and after that, life got tougher until halfway through my 3rd year when i grew long hair, which symbolized a new me. i regained my self confidence and my friends finally took me seriously, then i started listening to decent music, developed a sense of style and, watched the warriors. never been better .

good luck with your parents too

Baby Joker i had the same problem dont worry about it.

bj firstly i wanna appologise cos i know no kid should have to go through this and youre no exception.

i suggest call as many of your friends as you can and arrange to go out with them.while youre out try to numb the memories of your parents back home and think youre in a totally different world.when you get home go straight to your room and find something to occupy your mind.it can be something easy like drawing or writing or something but put the music on first.


i hope they come to their senses and soon and i hope you find the sanctuary you need
