I am having some problems with school, Myself, Best friend, and home. PLEASE HELP!!!?
Hi. Thanks for reading this. I am Failing at school. I am passing 3 classes. (PE, Art, Tech) All the rest i am failing. I left for a month to go down to the states. (Family issuses) I know what i have to do but i have 29 days to finish it. Any tips? The problems i am having with me is i think i am depressed. My grandma and grandpa have died recently and i am not over it. I don’t have time to deal with it really. But i talk to my bf about it and he said i need to make time. My best friend is depressed. Her dad died in her house the people would not come get his body until the next day. Now there is a new man sleeping in that bed. Her mum is re-marring. (I don’t like the guy) It is putting stress on my friend. She missed 3 days of school. She was "Sick" So pretty much she didn’t even want to get out of bed. She has hurt herself before. What should i do? My teacher hains talked to me before about her. My teacher is amazing. My home problems are a sick sister and a stressed family. My sister has been sick for 2 years. My biggest fear is she is going to die. He stomach stopped working. She has a feeding tube. I miss my old sister. They energizing bunny who is so epic. But know she is sick. Tired. Grumpy. Sensitive. What can i do to make it easy for her? My family is at the make it or brake it point i think. Everyone is so grumpy and mad. Please give me ur advice. :\
The place God meets most people is at the very bottom of their lives. You sound like you are there now. Pray for guidance, courage, strength..go find a church, usually the huge non-denominational churches have amazing programs. You need a support group, rest, exercise (to relieve stress) and some good books to escape reality for a bit.
Good luck, there are a lot of good posts here so I think they really have it covered.

First of all listen to music alot it always calms people and for your homework get a tutor or ask your teachers fro help because failing school isn’t helping anything and for your best friend the most you can do is give her support and listen to her problems p.s. let her know your there for her hang out or have sleep overs for your sister do something nice for her just make her smile and if she means alot to you that should make you happy by yourself and i hope you grandparents rest in peace but everybody moves on in life at some point and you will too one day i hope that helped and i wish you the best in life

O dear I am so sorry! The first issue would be to take care of your school work. Take the time to go either before school or after and spend time in each of these classes bringing your grade up! Also ask if there is some extra credit you can do to bring it up to passing. Next, to deal with the issue of your grandparents.. there is not much i can say but just know that they are in a better place now! You will always have the memories to cherish with them. Now with your friend! Be a good friend to her make sure she knows that you are there for her. Tell her to talk to her mom about this issue of that man.. and if she doesn’t listen there is not much else you can do. Also tell her to get out of the habit of hurting herself! you will have to try to help her with that one! And with your family… all you can do right now for your sister is love on her and pray! God will do what he thinks is best! Keep your head up girly! Things will come around! E-mail us if you need to talk some more!

School counselor, prayer. Do you have a Pastor? Even if you don’t, you can still call a church in you area, and ask if you can speak with the Pastor or his designate. You can actually ask them to set up an appointment to speak with your family or you can talk to him/her on the phone. Let them know how old you are and that you family needs help. Churches have a lot of resources, your family can be directed to some sort of group counseling and don’t rule out membership in a church if you aren’t in one. You need a higher power to cast your cares on right now. I am so sorry about all you’re going through. I think it’s wonderful that you’re being proactive and reaching out about your situation. Some people keep it bottled up. Does your school have counselors? If not, set up an appointment to speak with the principal. Sometimes you have to go to the head person in charge, you have to keep reaching out and making noise about your situation to get some help. God Bless you dear heart and your family. I am praying for you all.

It sounds like you really need to talk to someone about everything that is going on. Is there a teacher that you trust and have a connection with? Try talking to them or to a councilor because that is what they are there for. Councilors can even talk to your teachers about what you can do to make up your grade. Try staying after school for an hour in a class room or the library and doing your homework there. It will help you separate your school work from your home life, and that way you can work on one problem at a time.
Grieving is an important process. Ignoring it isn’t going to help. Try writing down all the good things you remember about your grandparents in a journal. Things like if you ever went on trips like them, or making a pie with your grandma. Writing really helps you put to words what you are feeling, so don’t think about what you are writing, just let the thoughts come in your head and write them down. It doesn’t have to make sense or be in sentences but it will help.
Parents re-marry and we don’t get a say in who they choose. Talk to your friend and be there for her to talk to you. Remind her that her mom is grieving her father and hasn’t forgot about him, but this man makes her happy. After loosing a husband she deserves some happiness.
As for your sister, I am very sorry. A sibling getting that ill can be traumatizing and something you never really get over. Talk to your sister and tell her what you feel, tell her you are scared and worried. Try and find something you can both do together that only you two do. You say you are good in art so maybe you can make something together. Having fun with her will help you remember the good times.
You are going through a lot right now and seems like you need help understanding it all. I really suggest talking to someone, and maybe even finding a support group. It sounds silly but talking with people who are going through the same types of things can really help.
Best of luck, and remember that it will all pass one day. This will make you stronger in the end. It sucks now, but one day it will be better.

I don’t know why my tears fell after reading your post. i wish to pray for you but I don’t even know your name. You know what….just pray and ask God that you be guided for now. If you believe in God, all your problems can be solved
