This is my first posting here. I am currently seeing a social worker for depression and .... I don't know what you would call it exactly. The statement that got me was when I told a supervisor that "No, I'm not suicidal. I'm not going to jump in front of a bus. Course, if I suddenly found myself in the path of an oncoming bus I can't guarantee how much effort I'd put into getting ...

Ok, Well I have never posted anything like this before. I will just try to explain how I feel and how I see myself and everything. I appologise if I seem to go on, I am not very good at expressing myself.

At my present moment in life, I am very confused and frustrated. ...

My school, the kids at my school are such ignorant little jerks. For example, on the bus ride home the other day, some of the 10th graders yelled, "hey fattie, you're so nasty, go loose 100 pounds then maybe you'll get a date" ...

How can I obtain self esteem, when I know I'm mentally ill, and worthless to society, at this stage of my life?
