Answer 1

If you have depression, than yes small things like these can get you down and there is nothing anyone can say-but trust me, things could get worse--You could barely be making ends meet, worried about where money is coming for groceries or gas-You could of foreclosed on your home, had collectors coming after you. Been is so much debt you have to take a second job, or wonder how you will go to the doctor when you cannot even afford to put gas in the tank. Or quite frankly you could be dead. Some people right now would give to have the chances you have right now and do not. You are 17, you have so much time and you are going to school doing something you love. Pull yourself up, get yourself healthy. Your stomach condition is common and yes it sucks but if you take care of yourself it could get better--Just be glad you do not have cancer. Tough comparison? Yes, because no matter the pain, people do hurt, but you could be in alot worse shape. if its not working with your girlfriend-then move on. Your 17, you have time-and start networking and find people you can trust.

Answer 2

It could be a h**l of a lot worse, trust me.

Answer 3

Find the common denominator of why things keep falling apart, and as far as the stomach aches, try what I have. Kidney stones. Yeah it hurts and stings, and gives me headaches from the pain.

Answer 4

Um, well, if you were someone else, who happened to find this question that someone else had written, what would you tell them? Do exactly what you'd advise someone else in this situation.

If you can't, think about this: isn't it funny how it's so easy to give someone else advice, but sometimes it's hard to follow your own advice?

You'll find the answer.
