• I’m feeling very suicidal right now..
  

  Things tend to get better with time. What’s bothering you in particular?

  Neat! Do you have any particular activities in mind?

  Are you in school now? Can you get a job, at least part time? It could be less of a burden on your sister if you were able to contribute to food, rent, etc.

  Is there something in particular that you don’t feel in control about?
  
  I guess one thing that keeps me grounded when I’m feeling like things are getting out of control is just trying to be the most loving person I can be. It’s not something that depends on anyone else- it’s something where I say that I’m going to do the best I can, because that’s all I can do. I control my own actions, particularly in relationships with other people.
  
  If that’s a bit vague, maybe it could be helpful to create a project that’s entirely your own. You decide what goes into it and how things will be done. And that could really be anything: starting your own journal/blog, building something, working on an artistic project.
  
  Talking to friends and/or family about the need to be in control could also provide some good suggestions (since they know you!) Another good thing about that is that you’re the one initiating the interaction.

• Long post about everything.
  

  I agree with the above poster: go do something! Find something that will force you to focus on something other than this girl (yes, you love her, but she’s said she doesn’t feel the same way, and you need to respect that.) Don’t even worry about getting into a relationship right now (even though there may be a lot of pressure since your friends tend to have boyfriends/girlfriends)- focus on doing cool stuff and being open to making new friends. I’ve found that school, church groups, and swing dancing are places where I can meet people who become new friends. But find out what works for you.
