I've Just Been... Depressed/Stressed Lately. · 10:40pm Feb 18th, 2015
I haven't been happy lately.
It's been something difficult for me to deal with. Stress from school, the hard time I've had finding a job, and a large amount of other things have absolutely been eating away at my happiness lately. Probably the most harsh toll that's been taken on me is the simple fact I've been overwhelmed with expenses; a couple $5 performances, $30 Driver's Ed Course (Not to mention it'll be $54 just to GET my damn permit), $25 damn stupid bracelet for HOPE online (And speaking of online classes, I can't find the freaking math I need). Plus the fact it's been extremely difficult to get a job to pay for all this shit. It's been making me extremely overwhelmed/stessed lately. The only thing in my favor is the fact I'm working on a commission (which should help with some of this stuff when I finally get around to freaking finishing it). Also, I talked to the manager at Wendy's and said they had job openings, but they couldn't find my freaking application. I reaplied, and when the manager told me to call back, she wasn't there. I seriously don't even know where else to go for a job if this fails, and I don't think I'll be able to be happy if I don't find something. I just feel as though I'm going to be constantly biting away at my skin if I don't have the cushion of a regular income to fall back on. It all pisses me off, and I really just needed to vent about all this. I haven't been myself for around a month, and I'm really just feeling like a mess. I only wish I could be a child again, and didn't have to worry about all this financial bullshit.
If you have any advice for me or anything, please tell me. I'd be willing to listen to any advice that could just help me get through what I'm going through right now. I'm only sixteen, and I wish I didn't have to deal with such things.

I can't promise that things get easier. Life doesn't work that way. But what I can promise is that if you don't give up, if you don't stop digging deep and griiting your teeth to push through, you'll make it to the top and reach your goals. It won't be easy, but nothing really ever is. I'm 17 and still unemployed. But I stick to it eveyday like I have been the past four years of hardship in my situation. I'm glad to say that said hardships are passing. Don't give up. You'll make it :) Thanks for talking and reaching out to your readers. We have your back.
Also, $84 drivers course and permit total!? I had to pay over $400!!! Wtf!? Where do you live and where can I get that cheaper course XD
I sorry that you are going through tough times,
I'm sixteen too, and being in school is really stressing...
Just be happy even though the times are tough, well that's what I do
Breathe.
Close your eyes and just shut everything out for a few moments.
I can't promise that it gets easier, but the more you pace yourself the less heavy everything feels.
Be well.
