Im SO Not feeling Myself - Help?
 

Hey.

Im Conor, and like most people know me as the bubbly, confident, nice kind and a person you can talk to type of guy, and i like being the person with like that attitude, because it makes me a likable person, to like the younger people.

But lately, i havent been myself, ive been grumpy, going on rants to everyone, speaking back to teachers when i think theyre wrong and argue witht hem untull they send me out( i normally just go fine and sit down in a strop).

I dont know what is happening to me, i want to go back to my original self, ive been causing arguments with my mates who i adore dearly, and i would be anywhere in life without them.

I just cry randomly, like i cry myself to sleep at nights sometimesm, i dunno why.

I just feel the urge to cry, i dont know why though.

OO AND ALSO.

iI comfort eat alot, like i eat alot. LMFAO.

And i worry bout my weight aswell.

So like. Yur LMFAO

I just dont know why im acting like this, im loosing alot of respect because of it and i want it to stop, but it cant seem to stop for some reason - people say its hormones, but like i dont know, maybe its just another side of me that ive never seen before, a side that i dislike strongly(adjective see), and i dont know what to do.

Any Tips, i know theres like really intelligent members on here.

Thanks
Con xx

Can you stop taking the piss out of him?

Conzor, Has anything happend that has really upset you recently?

LOL SORRY SIR.

ive been snapping at everyone recently just arguin for the sake of arguin i dont gettit!

Ummm.
Not really.

It definitely is hormones, since every teenager goes through this phase. But, try not to use that as an excuse for getting away with things (like I used to do). You're going through a phase where you're wanting to speak your mind. I remember I used to always obey teachers etc., but then thought I was an individual in my own right and should be allowed to voice my views as well. The only problem is that they are professionals, usually completely aware of what they are doing, and therefore deserve the respect that, unfortunately, a very small number of pupils seem to give them.

I know you want to go back to your former self - usually people do want to go back to a time when they were happier. But you'll feel much better if you go through this time trying to remain as positive as possible (easier said than done I know), and then at the end you'll feel better for it.

I should be following this advice myself. It's better to move forward and do your best rather than dwell on the past, whether they be good or bad memories. Additionally, this may not work for everyone - especially not teenage boys as they seem to lose patience from my experience! - but possibly write down how you're feeling. I kept a diary through my 'low' phase, and it really helped me suss out my feelings and feel that much better.

Lastly, although you want a variety of opinions, it's probably best not to rely on a forum with a bunch of anonymous people to make you feel better. None of us are experts or really know you. Try to talk to people close to you about how you're feeling: it can be very therapeutic.

Oh I can help here. I used to feel like that, but I put it down to hormones and stuff and things got better, just give it time :)

LOL. Usually, laughter's a good medicine as well - hopefully that worked.

I'm feeling a bit ill and that made me smile anyway. :hugesmile:

Right, please drop the bickering now. This is meant to be a feel-good advice thread for Conor.

I agree with Ash. You're getting a HUGE influx of hormones at the moment which will give you mood swings, aggression, unhappiness, "depersonalisation" etc.

Give it time, and you'll feel better - it's unfortunate, we all go through it/have gone through it, and it affects us all in different ways. Your true friends will stick by you :bigsmile:

Aww Thanks.

And thr last paragraph. When i try and talk to friends like, and theyre like telling me something i dont want to hear, like something i font agree with, i totally flip out on one, and go YOUR WRONG BLA BLA BLA.

So i feel like the internet is keeping me half-sane(if you get me)

LMAO.

Maybe it's for the better. It's good to have a balance and up until now - from what I know of you - you've been slightly unbalanced in terms of an equal amount of positive and negative emotions. Perhaps when you come out of this rut, you'll be better because of it!

But hey, I don't know you!

yeah i dunno whats up with me though, for a year i have been proper arguementative, im guessing its just hormones like u sed ash

Conor, I cant say much more than what has been said

But if you need anything dont hesitate to u2u me :)

Aw Ty ;)

you as i conor need to chill out a bit,
ive been getting way to stressed with work and all that recently but i have decided to take a day at a time now and just relax a bit more

Welcome to my World :laugh: Vicious circle.

It's also a result of increased hormones, so yeah. It increases your need for 'food' which satiates hunger and therefore your body feels happier. You then exchange food for happiness and your brain subconsciously links them, so food=happiness.

Lmao

Food = Happiness.

You can try jogging in the morning. When I use to do that I felt better afterwards.

If that involvs getting up earlier than i already do then NO. lmao

I get up at 5am EVERY MORNING just to get to school on time. LOL.

I forget, you're what , 15?

It's pretty much expected to happen. Don't worry about it.

Right now it seems completely huge and you can't understand why it's happening to you of all people, frustrated, this could be making you upset and cry. Ash has made a lot of good points so I won't reiterate.

Don't take things too seriously and just try and enjoy your adolescence.

im 16 and pissed off with school, but i cant wait to get to university, its not that far away, where i can have a fresh start

Firstly, as alot have said it's probably hormones.

Just try not to comfort eat as you're not solving the problem then and don't let it beat you.

Smiiiiiiile like you mean it, ah ah ah! (8)

I've haerd of bad morning people, but that's taking the piss! Lol

I'd love to be able to to that but there isn't a lot of place to run in central London.

I don't think Ive ever read such a wonderful post before on any forum I've ever been on, but reading that from you Ash was simply stunning.

To take that time, with the advice you gave this young man was quite moving and very very uplifting.
It was the time factor that impressed me (unless your a speed typist of course), the advice too was fantastic and one I as another non expert would have advised the same, as so did Lauren.
A lot of people will read that, a lot too of similar age to Conzors so it won't be just of help to him alone another reason why it so poignantly well worded.
Some of your kind words have even made me focus from a personal problem too only my frequent crying is nothing to do with hormones I'm quite sure.
However your advice of how to cope and seek assistance certainly picked me up for a moment and for that also I'm grateful too.
Watching BB in particular we can often forget some of the values that make decent people so to find that post in this forum in particular Ash was beautiful, and one I'll not forget.

Ang :hug::kiss:

Hope things get easier for you Conzors but take Ash and Lauren's words to heart print them out if need be, I cant add much more to what they have already said, apart from good luck, honey x
