I can`t face the fact that I have not nearly achieved what I set out to do as a teen,and it really bothers me.

I understand you. You are a high school student trying to find their way in the world and you are getting discouraged. Don't worry, the only reasom I know this is because I went through it too. Everyone that is more than skin deep goes through this, but trust me, when you find yourself, you'll NEVER be lost again

I am a little depressed that I did not accomplish all my goals or stick to my resolves to change my life.  It requires a change, a shift in my perspective for me to see the new year as another chance to live my life the way I would like.

I feel like that sometimes and then remember I need to raise my children, hopefully their life will have more meaning. I dont know what I will do after they are raised.

Sometimes, we all kinda go through that phase. But its nothing that you can't grow out of. Just take a bit of time out for yourself and re-evaluate your goals, your apirations, your associations with the people around you and work towards improving and developing on them. Be nice, be interesting, [Read the newspaper, magazines, editorials..theres a whole lot you can learn] expand your social circle and you'll do A-okay

Sounds like you might have hit your max at the form your at, your not really consintrating enough, or your slacking off. I dont know which, but you would be the only on who is able to tell.

Dont be! Me thinks that applies to everybody. Dont feel like that, im sure better things will come your way, im sure it eventually will!\n\nHow does one know where one wants to be in life?\nI cant quite get what you're trying to ask, but let me try :)\n\n--Well, sometimes you dont and stuff just happens untill you are where you are, and sometimes you have to plan things out to get to where you want to be.\n\nHmm...\nIf you really need to see what will come to you in the future, i guess you would have to have a goal or an aspiration... a dream! Lollers, and then take the necessary steps, or make the decisions that you might know will get you there... y'know :-)\n\nHonestly, i myself cant seem to place my self in this world, and even to know exactly what will become of me when i get older.\n\nI have tried to make plans, i have my dreams, but sometimes things just dont work out the way it should be.\n\naaaanyway.\nI suggest you don't let things happen - make things happen. youl know when your there after all those decisions and forks-in-the-road and shat.

Sorry to hear that, sweetie.  Maybe you should find another adult to talk to that will LISTEN to you and be there for you.  Parents sometimes get so self absorbed that they lose touch with their teens and think that the teen just wants independence and no longer needs guidance.  You really should point this out to your parents and let them know how you feel.  They just might not realize how much you truly need them.  Hope this gets better for ya!

Clemance, my young friend. you cannot change the past. If you want to succeed in life, use the frustration you are feeling to energize yourself, focus on the future, you are still able to get an education, stop worrying about what happened and move on. Of course you have been through a tough time, the people you have lost would not want you to fail, Your life is in your own hands now. Come on mate you can do it.

You are grieving over the fact that you are not perfect, and your life is not perfect.  Soon you you will be in a position to see this yourself.  Accept yourself as not perfect and your parents, and your friends.  Stop grieving over what you can not do and start focusing on what you can do.  It sounds to me like you could do a great deal.  Counseling can help you reach this point.

During high school and after I was really caught up with friends and partying and you sort of lose yourself in that.  The way I found what I really wanted to do was by thinking of what I wanted to be when I was a kid.  Try not to think of money and think of a passion that you have and just go for it.   Also spend more time with your family that can sometimes help you to realize where you come from and who you really are.

Have you thought about getting a tutor or where I went to school there were after school classes you could go to to get additional help. I'm sure that if you show that your applying yourself and doing your best that everything will be alright.

being that young and not being able to fight them off, is not your fault at all.  its also not your fault that your a blonde-headed man rather than a darker one.  no matter how hard it is you need to just get away and start a new life, where people wont treat you like that.  im not sayin that you will never be hurt, you never know, but you can change your surroundings to where your not in that envrioment anymore.  nobody deserves to be treated like that at all!  your honor is not distroyed, you were young and couldnt stop what was going on.
