friends help: Why does everything seem to go downhill all at once? - Help.com

look up. look around. but dont look down. you reach your hand up god is going to grab it. that girl thats a bully, f her, the cops cant stop u. school cant stop u, the only thing stopping you from anything is urself. so dont look down. dont stop urself

Gravity.
It makes the world go - down.

you know what makes life worth living? the good experiences. So, i highly advise you to do as many great things are you possible can when you’re feeling down. Actually, im feeling pretty terrible right now so im trying to help other people with things that are on their mind. It makes me feel good knowing i may helped someone. :)

This is what mentors, councellors and best friends are for!
We’re both worried but we can support each other and there are lots of people who would be willing to help, if you just let them in.
I know you don’t like it and think it’s a bad idea, but talk to your mentor! She understands, and knows more about it than most others, and if you need support both cookies and cream and I are here, just don’t give up! :)

we ALL have problems we need to sort out. And im not kidding. I have more issues and problems than most people but it’s how we respond that’s the key. There are lots and lots of people out there that feel the exact same way you do right now. I dunno if that helps but there you go anyway, lol.

Well, Bless your heart and I agree with Cookies, you did the right thing taking up for someone that needed taking up for, I applaud you for that, to often people see others doing something mean to someone else and just let it go on. Good for you and I believe that with right on your side that nothing bad will happen to you for it.

I don’t know anything about cutting or anything else you talked about, but I’m glad that you don’t want to cut, but I’m glad you care so much about Cookies and worry about her and that is something you and I have in common. You are a great friend!!!

hey darlin.

as for everything else thats goin on, youve got some grand advice goin on here that im sure you will use and it will help.
all i really have to add…is that youre not the only one noticing your friends eating patterns.
many of us here care about charlie a huge amount, and want her to be better as well. so please dont take this all on yourself. you cant blame yourself for the problem or let it ruin your own progress.there are many, many people around charlie who care about her and will do everything possible to help, including myself.

right now im fashioning a plane out of tissue paper, cereal and spit to get myself over to jolly ol england and take care of charlie. ( has nothing to do with the new puppy…nothing at all *shifty eyes*)

but seriously now. charlie is in good hands. we wont let her fall. so make sure you concentrate on getting yourself happy. if youre not happy and healthy, theres not much point in you trying to help others anyways, it will just make you feel worse and them.

i hope this eases your mind a little, make sure you take on the advice here and know that we care for you and charlie and are there for you :)

This is a reminder to me to reply in earnest tomorrow. I have to leave for work and just logged on for a min.

ok well dont cut anymore,its good that you stopped.But if you give up now youll fall back into that vicious circle.
Trya nd get some help for your friend with the eating disoder,even if its not from you some one older could help,that way you wont get too stressed over it.As for college….if your going to be doing a levels you dont want to do why bother?you could take a year off to work…I only say that because i did a levels that i havd no intrest in and i eneded up quiting college and messing about for two years until now…when ive finally found something im genuinlly intrested in studying….

OK… I am very sorry. The reminder only works when people reply after I do! That took longer then I thought it would.

Still worried? Something grandpa always told me… If there is nothing you can do about it then there is no point in worrying. If there is something you can do about it then why waist time worrying instead of doing it! Worry is a waist of energy. Like all emotions, it is a choice after the first 3 seconds.

Just remember that there are only 4 emotions. Fear (including worry), Anger, Happiness, and Loss (Sadness). Fear is a warning to fix or be aware of a problem before it can harm you. acknowledge the problem and start looking for a solution is the easiest way to remove fear. It is our life preserver. Staying alive takes action. This requires initiative. Initiative means making decisions and committing to them. Anger is our method of kick starting this process. We make decisions very quickly and act on them when angry. A wrong decision is better then indecision. Anger is also for survival. Learn to set it aside if you are not in need of it. Learn to draw on it for strength when you do need it. Loss is a reminder of our mortality. Loss tells us we should listen to fear and anger to prevent from losing our selves.

Then there is Happiness. Something to look forward to. Something to strive for. A reason to be alive. And the easiest emotion to control. We strive so hard for this that we constantly throw it out in our search for it! Acknowledge when you are Happy! Choose to keep it longer. Most of the things that make us Happy are small, insignificant things… Give them significance! If that glass of juice you had this morning is good then relish in it! Realize how good it is. Stop saying to your self “Man, that felt good!” and replace it with “Man, that FEELS good!”. This alone will start extending that emotion. You will not throw it away so soon. Felt should be used for negative things while feel should be for positive. Past tense the negative and present tense the positive.

Sorry this is long. If you want further explanation or help please let me know! Hope this helps!
