well, its thanksgiving and as ususal its shit with my family. I just moved to a whole diffrent city in junior year, so that just adds difficulty. Everyday i end up thinking the same thing. Im stuck in this city ( i moved from the city to the subburbs). I feel stuck in this slow, city filled with sheltered people and ignorant people. Its not that im unsocial or something, becuse im really outgoing and can make friends easiy, but its just so hard to get up everyday in a place where everything is discouraging. Tomorrows my birthday, and all i can think about is how much more i expected for myself at 16. I dont have a clue as to what i want to do in college, where i want to go, or even how im going to get out. My parents think they did me a favor moving me to a safer city, but honestly these have been the hardest 3 months of my life. They also belive in me living with them through college (culture), so on top of it all i feel like theres no way out. Wow haha i sound like some depressed emo kid or something. I guess, what im asking is, any words of wisdom? i really need it lol.
thanks for reading all of this, im sorry if it sounds like any old teenager problem, but i guess i just needed to vent..
thanks :]
 
I hope you feel better. I know it's not really a wise word or anything, it's one of the oldest sayings in the book: "This too shall pass." And sometimes it may seem like it takes forever, but it will pass.
 
You will be fine, give yourself time to adjust. Look at the positive, hopefully you will be getting a car soon, and you can go and visit your old friends, try to invite them to come to your house over the holidays and that may make it better. Just because they want you to live with them through college does not mean you have to. By then they maybe ready for you to move off and be a little more independent. You can always look at it this way, in three more years I'm out of here. But to tell you the truth in three more years you will had made you a lot of new friends and may not want to move. That's what happened to my daughter when we moved her out of state at the age of 15. Now she would not even think to move to another state. She met a guy married and had children. Honey, It will all work out, believe me. Always remember "Time changes everything" By the way Happy Birthday. and eat some cake for me...:)
 
I'll go off on a tangent for a sec. You do not sound depressed or emo. Admitting your problems does not mean you are weird and depressing. You shouldn't have to pretend everything's perfect when it's not. Secondly when in college move the hell out. Go out of state. Stand up to your parents. Be ballsy.
 
Holy CRAP, I feel the same exact way.

I live, and have lived, in a relatively small suburb. Until recently this was all I knew and I was happy with it. I then realized there was so much more to the world, and I also fell in love with film and movies, visited LA, and now this tiny little town isn't enough. It's suffocating for me.

All I can say is that you just gotta wait until you can move out on your own, go off to college, etc. Maybe get a job to keep you busy or join a school sport. I so know how you feel. I'm sorry. :/
 
I live in the worst part of a really good city. My parents are scared to let me leave the house when really, all of the "thugs" that roam around the streets are kids that I go to school with. (therefore, they are no danger to me) It's really stressful because my neighborhood isn't even dangerous at all and my parents won't let me out of the house alone. So, I'm moving out as soon as I can. In my city, there are apartments for under $300 so I would be able to afford it with a minimum wage job. You should move to Fargo, It's really easy to live alone here. XD
