friends help: Ive just been so unhappy with all aspects of my life. - Help.com

i understand what you’re going through…from the sounds of it you’re a high schooler or middle schooler…my high school years were very similar to this and now i guess i’m back to that during college, but here’s what i did. I went out of my way to talk to people i hadn’t talked to yet or in a long time. i started doing this as a sophomore, because my best friend decided to find all new friends that were all juniors. because of doing this and talking to a former good friend who was now popular, aka my best friend of 4 years again, Amanda. this helped me branch out and meet some new people through her and also, my parents put me on antidepressants for a little bit…i didn’t like that, but our relationship improved a lot, because i “was being moody” and the antidepressants helped with that, and now me and my parents are closer then ever. and don’t worry about your love life, it’ll happen when it happens..

I know it seems like you’re completely alone, but really most people feel the same way at least once but usually tons of times in their lives. Connecting with others can be really hard, especially when you’re in high school or college or any social group setting like that. Everyone is insecure, all those kids with friends that seem so happy? I guarantee they all think crap of themselves, you just can’t see it on the surface. So what can you do? It’s easy to say that you need to try harder, branch out and talk to everyone you can until someone talks back. It’s a good idea and maybe it’ll work. But what you really need to do is face yourself, love yourself and others will follow. You’re parents aren’t always going to understand you or get along with you, if they did it would be hard to leave them when you have to go out into the world on your own. Other people aren’t everything, I mean honestly most people really aren’t that great and you should never measure your own greatness by how many friends you have because trust me, you are great all on your own. Just know that everyone has feelings that are deep and as pained as your own, they might seem tough on the outside but on the inside we’re all goop. Just remember that you’re awesome and if they aren’t interested in being your friend it’s completely their loss and the girl that you meet when you meet her, will completely adore you.

Good advice sbarut, sounds like having a painful experience has given you knowledge to help others with same issues. :)
I would just like to add that people are complicated and the worst in high school years. I am sorry that you have had to go through this stuff with people treating you poorly and jumping to conclusions. Some peeps have small lives and or have no life and just enjoy picking on someone… they are very limited and you will soon surpass them, since there best part of there lives is high school and then they just go downhill from there You are temporally limited to the people who are in this school, but when you are done there you will find many other people who are worthy of friendship. In the meantime why don’t you join some kind of club, drama, sports, or other interests you have, and start doing something new. :)
