I have been feeling really down latley, these are some of the thing i’m upset about.

-Sometimes i feel like there is no point in living. I do have friends, but although we do meet up and see eachother alot, I’v always felt different from them and not very close to them. I try to be closer but there are things I am not willing to tell then as they wont respond the way I want them too, and I know thhere is alot they are hiding too.
-I’m the oldest in my family and I get put under alot of pressure sometimes . I’v tried telling my mum but she never quite understands. Recently, my parents have been arguing alot, It feels strange writing it down but my mum thinks my dad is cheating. I dont know who do belive and i’m really worried it might be true. I feel really angry at both my parents when they argue but then i feel really selfish because they must be feeling bad too. I don’t like test because of pressuere and i get bad marks even if i’m good at the subject.
-One of my problems is i put other peoples feelings before mine. Everything I do i have to makesure that no one is going get hurt by, even if i do.
-At school i’m an all rounder, i’m good at most things but there is nothing i am really good at, i don’t have a hobby or a talent. I’m quite good at ar, maths and science. But there are always people who are better. I go to a private schoole and the standard is high. This puts me down and makes me feel bad at stuff. There was a science copetition, i really wanted to get in because i love science alot and i would like to have a career in scienece. I didn’t get in and i was quite upset as it was chemistry which i really like.
-The last thing is that i sometimes feel a bit jelous of a girl in my school.She is pretty, she has frends who love her,she is good at everything, she is talented at sports, she is slim, ahe is popular and she is really nice, she everything i ever wanted to be. Sometimes i find my self hating her for wat shes got,
-I have no self confidence, i’m really quite and shy and i am quite even with my cousins.
After writing this i feel meen and horrible but it feels good to let it out. They may seen like small problems but they control my life and i would really like help. Thx.

There are plenty of things in this world worth living for, we just have to find our own reasons for them is all.
See that the things going on with your parents is not your problem as they have to work it out themselves.
Truth is that our first priorities are to ourselves, it’s not selfishness it’s human nature.
Being a jack of all trades is a good thing, as you learn several new things and can be evenly good at them, you don’t have to master them. It’s ok that you are not in the science competition, you just do your research on your own and someday you will have a great career in what you like, don’t let one drawback get you down, this happens to everyone, we all want to be somewhere but can’t always be, but later we are moved to a much higher position then we could had thought of.
Jealousy is never a good thing. Understand that there may be some things that people have over you but also see that you can do alot of things that they can’t and things that you can do better. Everyone is just as equally important, as we all can do things differently.

And most importantly, you have to support yourself if you want to make it. There will be times that there is no one around to give us encouragement so we have to support ourselves during those times. Believe that you may fall sometime but you always get back up and at the end of the day your still standing. Each day you progress further and further, you know more today then you did yesterday.
