My Help Thread...

[KattyKatie]

Ok I really need help. I agreed to take part in an exchange program, meaning that someone comes here for three months and then I go there for three months. The thing is that I'm going crazy. It's not really the girls fault but she drives me insane. She takes forever to get ready in the morning, and even though she gets up HALF AN HOUR before I do, I *still* have to wait for her to get ready.
And that's not all. She's stealing my crush and trying to steal my friends. She's trying to take over my life and I don't like it! And any time I try to complain to someone about whats going on they say I have to "give her a chance" and that "things are really tough for her". WellI've been giving her a chance for 2 weeks and I can't take anymore!
I'm so stressed out about this I'm getting physically sick. I'm even losing hair and freaking out over little things. I need help with this before I make hurt myself really bad.

Okay, first of all don't hurt yourself in any way, no one wants that and we're all here for you!

Have you tried talking to her about how you feel? I know it might seem hard because shes new and you don't really know her, plus your so mad at her, but maybe if you explain how upset your getting she'll understand. Try telling her that you understand how hard it is for her to be in a new place, new school, and everything, and you'll help her out with friends, boys, school, but that you kind of feel that she is moving in on the life you had before she came. I don't know if thats harsh or not, it might be, but maybe if you tell her how your feeling she'll understand.

If you don't want to do that or you've tried that maybe you can try talking to someone in your family. I'm sure they care about how you are feeling and how this is effecting you and maybe they can help you find a way to firgure this out.

Whatever you do, just be careful of her feelings, but don't let her, yourself, or other people forget yours in the process.

Hope I helped,
Gaby

Man, I really need help again. There's this guy, and we're finally together and I really feel like I love him, and he says he loves me too, the only problem is.... everyone else. People are constantly trying to make us break up, well actually it's just two people... two people I've turned down repeatedly! I hate it though, I just wish people would let me be happy for once, instead of telling me lies (and I know they're lies because I have proof for a lot of them). I just don't know what I can do, I really don't want to leave this guy, buti don't know if I can take the insecurity much longer.
