the pressure of fitting into the norm
Worry Jar
I worry that I will never get better no matter how hard I try. I feel so alone and its the worst feeling in the world.
I’m worried you’ll leave me. You’ll give up on me. Im never good enough. I don’t deserve to be happy. I’m afraid to be alone.
I worry about having to live up to my parents expectations. ” Get 80%, 90%, and 100% in school, nothing less or else your grounded,” “Graduate and go straight to university,” “Become something great like a doctor,” “Be happy, even though we always yell at you for not being good enough,” “Eat healthy and be active,” “Do all your homework even though you have a social life and I make you do a million other things in the run of a day,” “Get enough sleep,” “Never get mad,” “Never yell back at us when we always yell at you,” “Make friends, but not those ones because I don’t like them,” And the list goes on! I’m only a teenager! I can’t be the perfect child like you want me to be!
My parents always yell at me
Everyday I feel worse about myself
I feel as if im the adult and my mothers the teenager. When it should be the pther way around.
I’m worried I’ll never have a relationship, I’m worried I’m not attractive enough
I want to be closer to my parents but they don’t have time for me anymore
Im worried i wont graduate high school
My grades are dropping so much… I try so hard but it’s not good enough
i get worried about a lot of stuff to the point where it makes me physically sick, then i worry about getting sick
Every day I get a message saying how ugly I am and how I do not deserve to be here, guess I kinda agree I don’t know why I’m here, I pretend I’m okay when really I can loose my mind at any point I don’t even know what to do
I’m worried I’m unlovable
what worries me is being judged. I feel like no matter what I say if do someone always has to mock me, tease me or pick at me. they think it’s alright I guess I kinda play it off as cool. but it really bothers me and sometimes I wonder why I’m even friends with them.
I want to be straight, not Bi!
I worry about my weight like there’s no tomorrow. I try and try to work it off but I never see any progress. I feel like just giving up eating would make everything so much better.
Being an inteovert in an xerovert world….
My friends leave me out of everything … I really need friends who care
That my best friend won’t be my best friend if they see my scars
