Somebody please help!?
I am in my last year of highschool and I am a social outcast. I have a really good friend, and some other 'friends'. If I sit someone where in a class room nobody sits around me, everybody says it doesn't matter once you get out of high school, but it does to me. All the way through my life I have been rejected, I will have friends and then they find 'better' friends and go away. I am scared of ending up like my mum, I love my mum she is the most incredible person on the world. She raised a large family, she has also struggled to fit in, but that isn't what I want. I have only talked to my sister about it, she cared but I am so scared I will end up this way my whole life, my parents aren't happy with their jobs. I am thinking I should take a year off school, go work full time where i am currently working part-time (i feel accepted and in the summer hoildays I didn't get really depressed). I want to break the cicle, go back to school when new year comes so I haven't had a record try and make friends with the right group and be set. Please give some advice I beg of you I can't stop crying

3 AnswersDesktops8 years agoDifference between pages on ipad to the macbook?
I am about to get a MacBook Air, I am not sure whether to invest in Microsoft or just pages. On my ipad I find pages annoying since it autocorrects things in American English (I am australian), it doesn't let me add a word no dictionary but it doesn't pick up in gramma or things like leaving a gap after a comma (our teacher gets annoyed when people hand in stuff when the comma is in the wrong place lol). I am not to worried about pages not having as many templates and stuff as word

5 AnswersLaptops & Notebooks8 years agoMac or windows laptop?
I am a student and I need a laptop. I already have an ipad (which up till now I have been using as a laptop but really isn't sufficient) , an iPhone and iPod lol anyway my friends think I should get a Mac to complete it and so I can easily share information among my devices. I can get macs reasonably cheap since my uni is signed into the education part of the Apple Store. But apple does have some difficulties like compacting with Microsoft, being more expensive ect. What do you think
4 AnswersLaptops & Notebooks8 years agoHow do I get ride of the sores on the back of my hand?
On the back of both of my hands there is a sore exma, red and craking skin. This extends from the back of my thumb to the middle of my finger. I have tried everything to stop it fungus cream, paw paw cream, goats milk, some special sort of exma cream, I have tried to take baths instead of showers in case it is from hotness ect. Many of these things seem to improveit, I do what is recommended on each of the products ect, but there always comes a point where it stops healing and within a few days is really sore again. It is not fungus or bacteria because I tried to stop it, when I had colder baths it healed a little. I recently moved from out of town, where we were on tank water, to in town where the water has chlorine in it, I am thinking it is a reactions from that. The sores are really getting annoying since, particularly at night I have to put ice on them to stop them from itching sometimes

2 AnswersLanguages9 years agoHow do I make my life happy? How do I cope?
This is probably going to be very long and I am sorry. All the way through my life I have been unsure and insecure. I think it started because I had one best friend in kinda up to year 2 the she suddenly left. Me and her never socialized with anybody else ect. From year 3 I didn't know how to make friends and was lonely at school (and still pretty much am) and was bullied (that has stopped now). Nobody ever seemed to notice. I came from a large family in which I often feel excluded and my father drinks a lot of alchol inwhich some times he comes into a big roar. My mum although I think she is amazing for raising all the children often leaves me out, when my sister comes home I am then the odd one out and this happened when she was at home. I often feel judged I was told growing up that I was to fat or I held onto things for to long (like situations at school). In high school I tried making friends but was voted out of one group (even though I stayed for a long time after and just sat) and the second who was in the year below me phased me out. I often see myself trying to get love from other people outside my family but they always leave. I feel like I am selfish becaue I do have a family but I just feel so out of place and different, if I told them any of this I would be judged. Is it normal to have a family like this am I just being silly? Is it normal for your mother to yell at you all the time but then be your best friend or something.
At school now I very luckily have a best friend, but in class I am still judged and sit alone. I think why would anybody want no talk to me because there are so many people that are so much better, I think that anybody that has come to like me if they met my sister would instantly just transfer all affection over to her. I was going to drop out of school and work full time at a retailer and finish my schooling through distance education (even though I would have to tell my parents) and that way I could be happy. I talked to a teacher about it and I finally felt as if somebody cared or something but that teacher is leaving and i don't know what to do,I think I finally go something that felt like love. Idk
Anyway I also have this sick obsession with imagining people feeling sorry for me like imagion I am in hospital and stuff and this isn't right but I know that people in hospital go through a lot of pain and this makes me an attention seeker.
What should I do?
Why will not anybody remain, i feel as if love is temporary.
How do I over come the last thing?
I know this is lenghty put my life seems like it is going in cycles. Some times I am able to but all these insecure feelings aside and enjoy my day other times I get really down. I don't feel like I do have anything.

2 AnswersOther - Education9 years agoWhy am I always blamed?
It is horrible I am in my last year of school but every time my sister comes home (on break) this fact seems to go out the window. I am studying really hard for it, usually my brother and i will get along all right. But as soon as she comes home once again I am compared to her and am blamed for everything, my brother will make up situations to make me look like I have started a fight over nothing(I try my hardest not to fight back to him), but it is hard when he turns the tv up really loud in the room next to you and when asking him to turn it down him yelling for mum, and then again my sister would be able to do this, this is only one example or my brother trying to steal my food so I don't have any and then mum calling me fat and him skinny so I go without why? I am trying my best to ignore it since she is going back soon but it sometimes gets really hard I keep getting commented on that I don't take anything compared to my sister why?

1 AnswerRock and Pop9 years agoWhat career should I do?
I don't like working is a large amount of people but I do like to work in small groups where I can really get to know people. I am interested in ancient history and creative sort of things and am getting more interested in biology. Currently I am in my final year at school and am probably going to uni, I work part time in clothing department at a store inwhich I really enjoy, because I get to organize all the clothes and stuff how I want and design the frontage ( I wouldn't want that job for the rest of my life though lol), and am a neat freak. I am good at designing clothes but hopeless at putting them together ( hopeless at machine work)I am also apparently at thinking things through for I have been through a lot and good 'deep thinking' and finding the answers to why things happen like why is some people's lives harder than others ect. I wouldn't though want to be sitting down for the rest of my life I would want to be up doing things. Apparently I have good hand eye coordination . If I have an interest in something I always seem to hammer it

1 AnswerPrimary & Secondary Education9 years agoHas everything gone good?
All if my life, through school I have been bullied, harassed, and had many friends leave me, mostly from rumors started by one girl, which lead onto another girl influenced from her ect. At the end of last year those people left and my untrustworthy friends now are friends with me again, and my best friend has come back to me, so this year has been good. My home life is alright my dad hasn't gotten drunk and ended up in a huge argument with me and mum is not ignoring me she doesn't complain about every mistake I make. It just doesn't seem right. My brother is being bullied and I don't know what to do because he only tells me half the story and then when I try to get angry at his 'friends' it is a completely different story (after they don't know what I am talking about he tells me he forgot some thing) and we never get along other wise but I have seen them throw paper at him but he still wants to go out with them.I just don't trust this period this is what I have always wanted, is if still because I feel as if I am not loved? I am in my final year of highschool. Is it because I work all the time and don't see everything that happens?
1 AnswerPsychology9 years agoHow do I get back my motivation to work?
In Australia year 12 starts (finial year of school) has just started I have been studying hard and stuff. Today in my study period this guy kept telling me I was doing to much and that he gets all the marks by not doing anything and it doesn't matter. I know this is wrong but it has really brought my motivation down help! You can't obsesse over an assignment I want to be hungry for marks again
1 AnswerPsychology9 years agoShould I drop out of school?
Where I live in Australia we start our final year of school now. I do alright accedamically but I am rather unhappy socially. I have one good friend and some others that socially depending if they have another friend available will talk to me. In class I often sit alone if I come in first no one will even sit near me, I am constantly thinking what is so wrong with me. I think it was a rumor that went around about me at the beginning of high school even before I was able to make friends, somebody told everybody I was easily offended and couldn't be trusted. My parents just wouldn't understand if I told them I would be seen as weak. I was about to drop out last semester but a teacher found out and is trying to integrate me (I am really grateful for the teacher's care) but it isn't working, The rumor is proven by me being so quiet in class. If I dropped out of school I would take me part time job and make it full and maybe complete school at tafe (college) at work my situation is quiet different. Should I wait it out so I have a better, shorter path for university or be happy and work and some how tell my parents.

I have been through a lot in high school even thought about jumping. I have only a year left but I still am getting over some of the events that happened previously in high school and still have very low self esteem and confidence and go through very hard emotional times. I was wondering if their was a site that partners you with somebody that has/going through the same thing so you can support each other and learn from each other. Be like pen pals
