Scared And Depressed
Posted by Anon in Alone on Jul 29th, 2010 | 6 commentsI am 17 and the doctors think im going through menopause; i have always dreamed of having kids, so this is like losing a family member.
my mother is kicking my friend who was living with us out, and im too scared to live at home with my mother, even though i know its the right place for me.
my mother never listens to me unless it affects her. She continually puts me down and makes me feel like a burden to her.
im failing school, even though im a bright student, all i want to do is sleep, i sleep 10 – 15hours at a time unless i force myself to get out of bed, but when i do i dont feel like ever doing anything.
i want to drop out of school and do a photography course, its amazing, its early mornings but its something i enjoy; but mum says unless shes getting centerlink im not doing it.
i seriously am watching the world around me crumble to pieces, and theres nothing i can do to stop it

Wow, your goin tru some hard stuff but you know what..Life has a lot 2 offer 2 each n everyone
T first steps 2 everything r hard but when you make them youll feel betta than before..you know best whats good for you..just take some time 2 think bout what you want in life and how 2 get it and then just go for it;-)
About your dullness..well, for that youll have 2 really force yourself into doin things 2 keep you active
If you dont change your life like it is now..you will be more depressed in future..n bout your mum, i know its not that easy 2 give a advice but ill try..
First im 19 and well everyones got a mum..yes shes your mum but shes got no right 2 put you down and 2 make you feel miserable..and its not about being self-centred but if someone doesnt make you feel betta when your down, doesnt help you when you need it etc. then ill say you in return do t same or just dont take it 2 heart when this person says s’thing 2 you, ignore it, forget it..your no ones slave and you have 2 live with yourself everyday soooo be your own fortitude
You really cant do much bout t world we’re livin in..but surely you can do s’thin bout your own personal life…
I hope i could somehow help you out..
2 you all t best n dont let this world crush you…
TRY CHRIST. HE WORKS

get your head out of your ass, go to school, then decide whats best for you.
What the f***!! You are so damn lucky! I literally would be MISERABLE if I accidentally got pregnant and since I’m under age to get my tubes tied without a medical problem it can still happen.
If I got pregnant, I wouldn’t abort it or anything but I just don’t want a kid, period.
AND you won’t have a period. I envy you.
Ask your doctor about Poly-cystic Ovary Syndrome. It resembles menopause in many ways. Also, talk to your doctor about depression, sleeping that much isn’t normal or good for your health, it can damage your health. You are 17, continue school, try your hardest! There is only a year that separates your home and moving on away from your mother. Try talking to her none the less and if it don’t help, ask her to go to counseling with you. I wish you luck!
ok, so everything is pretty much resolved:
me and mum are going a bit better, but still fighting sometimes which is expected at this age;
i dropped out of school and had 8 weeks off, just to get my head around everything, and now im on really good terms with it and i talk about it openly and rarely get upset. im back at school now, going for a HSC and its feeling more and more natural every day;
i have an amazing group of friends who have been lifesavers these past few months and i am so thankful God has put them in my lives.
I have an amazing boyfriend now too, who treats me really well and i can talk about everything openly with, he is such a great support.
i think using this site really helped me let everything out and put it all into writing/words.
and yeahh, its definitely premature menopause, i had very low or even no estrogen at all, and they did a scan to see if there were any cysts on my ovaries and there were none.
Thankyou to all of you :)
