like when you say you feel like crap
do you mean you feel depressed
or you feel like you're tired all the time, and achey?
the latter are symptoms of depression..
but i was just wondering

no no no

you dont want to die
Pm me if you need too
i am also 16 and i would be more than heppy to help you out

aw, i'm so so sorry you feel like crap all the time. i'm your age as well, and have been dealing with anxiety since the 7th grade. i'm even on medication for anxiety. my doctor said, although i'm relatively happy too, that anxiety can be closely linked with depression. for me, just dealing with anxiety on a day to day basis can be emotionally and physically draining! from what i've learned, symptoms of anxiety can be very broad, so there's a lot. i know it's stressful and annoying and unfair to always feel like crap, but i promise that life is worth it. i'd sugest talking to a doctor or counselor if it might make you feel better! if you need any advice, i'm here!

gogo Gogreen! You are very wise for someone your age. I couldn't agree with you more.

Reading this sounds like my own experience and I can tell you, things will get better if you are proactive and work at it.

There are people with answers and the ability to help, you just have to reach out for it. Find someone in person like a couselor to talk to. Talk to your guardian/parents or a school couselor and ask them if they can help you find someone to talk to.

Things will get better! Dont get discouraged.

Teen years IMHO are the sometimes the first signs of anxiety. You have alot ahead of you to think about. What you want your future to be, what colledge to attend, get married or stay single for awhile. These are all normal things but, yes they are things that can cause anxiety. You are faced with some of the biggest decissions in your life right now. Just try and take one step at a time and one issue at a time.
You have a bright life ahead of you if you don't roll them all up into one big event.
Try and relax and put those pieces of the puzzel together piece by piece. You can't just take every piece and jumble them altogether and say it is finished.
You will be just fine. If you feel this problem is getting out of hand, then by all means seek counseling before it gets worse.

Think Positive!
