Okay, my family and I just moved this summer to a new town, which means new schools for all of us. We're all fitting in fine, and I have friends, but I'm not close enough to any of them to really give them the long answer to "what's wrong?" I know that knowing what's wrong will help, and anyway, my biggest problem with telling them is trying not to cry, so... here's the list:
1. My brother had back surgery early this summer. Scholiosis (pardon the spelling, I swear I can say it right)
2. Gee, the move.
3. I found out my best friend is offically emo. Because she can't cry at this point.
4. Mom is talking to me about family issues that really should be just between her and dad. Like budgeting, and (extended)family problems.
5. I'm only fourteen, but between worrying about my family, worrying about my friends, and worrying about school, There's no room left for worrying about myself... and I end up feeling closer to fourty years old...
6. I can't talk to my old friends. They're swamped with homework so I can't call them, nobody'd reply to snail-mail, and it takes forever to have a conversation over e-mail 'cause we're nevr on at the same time, and they only check once every 2-3 days...
7. I feel like I still have to be the good eldest sister and be nice, helpful, and emotionally stable. Which I am normally... at least, on the outside...

My suggestion would be to find someone who you can use as a confidant, and tell them how you are feeling. Find a teacher or maybe the school counselor, and ask them if they'd just sit and listen, and let you vent. You need to get this out, if you don't to me it looks like your going to burst sweetie. So find a way to let this out, tell someone how you feel. Good luck ^^ *hugs*
