ADVICE | DEAR CAROL

I'm totally starstruck

 

 

 
I am what you would call starstruck. I always dream about meeting certain actors and actresses. Why can I be like everyone else and like the boy next door?
 
Dear Starstruck,
Stars shine brightest in magazines and interviews. In real life, celebs have to brush and floss just like the rest of us. That said, many girls like to read up on the rich and famous. Which is fine—unless you’re waking up miserable because you aren’t a certain actor’s best friend or main squeeze. If it’s no longer fun to be a fan, get busier with you’re here and now. 
 
Take up a new sport or instrument. Start a monthly book club with friends and maybe even their moms. Take an acting class and if your community has a theater, audition. You may be a star yourself someday—but you’ll still have to brush and floss! As for the boy next door, perhaps you don’t yet feel ready for the roller coaster of real romance.  And that’s fine.

I'm ugly and chubby! I get like repeats if the day papa died! I cry alot! I'm scared alot! I still suck my thumb! weird things happen to me I hear my name being called noones calling my name The Shadow is so scary it's a thing that follows mr and stuff but not a ghost at all! It mentally connects! I always are scared someone else will die! I have hypoglycemia,a hear prob and hurt foot! I get confused easily and "leave" myself and change bodies! I have scary thoughts! I worry alot! I WILL NOT discuss this with anyone!! How should I cope,how can u relate etc! Be thorough please! Remember I can't talk to any1 comfotablu! I often wanna die!! I have alit of grief! It's hard to believe I've lost ppl I'm close to! I've list over 12 ppl close! Be thorough with ur answer but don't answer talk to someone!! Why do u think the odd stuff happens? How can I get rid of my grief? Recently a dog I dogsat died too! Post and anser asap!I barely wanna live anymore!

 

Hey chicky, ok, I'm here to answer your ?'s!

First of all, I'm so sorry to hear about your family members! Trust me when I say that I know exactly what you're going through. My mom just passed away. As for your appearance, you are not ugly! You're beautiful, you just don't see it. Someday you will, I promise. It's totally normal to cry and have flashbacks. They will get better over time. I know you don't want to talk to anyone, but trust me when I say that you REALLY need to. I know it's scary, but school guidance counselors have heard it all! They won't think you're weird, or crazy or anything.

My favorite quote is "Tough times don't last. Tough people do." And that's especially true. Things WILL get better. Trust me on this one because I've been through plenty, and it's always gotten better. Your grief will lessen over time and although you'll still miss everyone, you'll be able to go through the day and not think about it every second. It just takes time. You need to keep yourself occupied with a hobby, or a passion. Hang out with your friends. Try a sport (that'll help you to get in shape, and meet people too!). Take a class, like art or something. Keep yourself busy, and keep meeting new people. That should help. Thinking about you.

MOD
why doesn't anyone comment on my profile? i leave comments on everyone elses, and i comment on articles saying pls check out my profile...yet NOTHING!!!!!!

 

Hey chica,


Girls will write to ya if they find that you have things in common and might get along well.  So make sure you have all your interests on your profile so you have stuff to talk about.  And keep commenting on everyone else's...it just takes time Smile

Mod I wanna be 60 lbs I'm like 110 now how long'll it take do ya think ps: I'm a junkfood junkie!!!




I think 110 is a perfect weight for you. Keep up your eating habits and dont try to lose the weight. You are too old to weigh only 60 pounds. Elementary schoolers weigh around 60 pounds. So keep doing what youre doing Smile youll be fine. xoxo kerra

Mmmmmoddd make it stop!




Theres nothing i can personally do to make it stop. Im going to stand by the notion that the only way to make it all stop is to seek professional help. Until you do that, none of its going to go away. Good luck girl. xoxo kerra
