The media has soiled the minds of basically every teenage girl. And highschool is just icky. Anyway, my point is that every one has one time or another disliked themselves or even hated themselves. And its quite annoying everyone complaining how they are not skinny enough or not pretty enough. See the thing is, that is life, you either learn to accept or to do something about it. If every time you look inthe mirror you get the depressed you either do something about it or if you are too lazy or if you really can't you just learn to deal with it. Because no one looks perfect. Now, peopel with anorexia or bulimia that is totally different, that is a disease weather you agree or disagree is another thing. its just annoying having people complain about themselves, when you could be complaining about world hunger or the war OR the possibility of bush getting re-elected. truely, highschool life in general makes no sense to me. And I am glad. It now also seems that being depressed is a trend and if not a trend a popular wave sweeping everyone. Guess what? its not a good thing nor a cool thing. I've suffered from clinical depression. I have seen therapists and doctors. But its not something i write on my fucking forhead and tell everyone. Its not a GOOD thing. because i'm lucky I have gotton help and now i'm pretty much normally happy. I take an anti-depressant, and its kind of a blessing. but then there are those people, who yes i must admit are probably really depressed, but is that really a reason to be cutting your wrists every day and showing it off, making no effort to conceal it?? And maybe its about not caring but its also about showing it off!? The world is fucked up. People now have conversations like well i have a therapist AND c ounselor, well so?? I'm bi-polar. Well i cut last night. Well guess what? I dealt with that shit, and I overcame it. And now I'm happy. There is a big difference though. People cutting now in highschool versus when i did, in 5thish grade as a cry for help, no one KNEW what cutting meant, and everyone was too young to know, now I see whats going on around me, and i'm pretty damn glad i got help. and it worked. SO i ranted and bitched..so. Homecoming is this weekend :-) I'm excited but pretty damn stressed out too!
