Dear ST,
You're not alone in that boat.
No matter what happens, we'll be okay.

but its okay to feel bad every now and again. some ppl are cocky. its okay to complain and have some things go wrong. its wat makes life interesting and remarkable.

Look, your problems are still problems. And as long as those problems are getting you down, they're getting me down, I don't like you being down ST!
If you need anyone to talk to, note me, I'm sure you're worth far more than you make out.

I know what you mean, sometimes it's hard to dig yourself out of an emotional hole. Try thinking about the positive things in your life, it'll help loads.

I can SO relate to this secret... except for maybe the FAILING SCHOOL part... that I'm not.

There's no such thing as "real" problems. There's only problems, period. The size of your problems also depend on yourself. Don't compare yourself to other people, because you are you and they are they.

It doesn't suck. Everybody has his/her own problems, and to the owner, they are big enough. When things happen to you, they just seem horrible. But don't let life dissapoint yourself. Look a the nice things in life, and let everything else appart. Just smile, dear.

If something bothers you, if it matters to YOU, then it's important. What other people consider an issue or not an issue is, well, their issue.
And you are only failing school if you think you are failing school. Suck that low self-esteem down, hold your head up high, and just try ANYWAY. It's worth it. If it helps, talk to a teacher (a nice one preferably..) and they will help you catch up with the work you can't do, and help you feel better about yourself and cope with the workloads.
Self-pity is fine, as long as you accept that after spending that time feeling shit, you're gonna do something about it if you can. The people around you will help. Your family and friends care about you, they will want to be able to help. I've found that it helps me to get out of my self-pitious ways to talk to someone else and help them, y'know, like, be kind to someone. Think of all the different things I am grateful to have today. Just little things that help you feel better about yourself.
And for the record, this secret doesn't suck. You're a human being, like the rest of us. And we humans, we'll get through.

A lot of people get like that.
The fact you realise your problems maybe aren't as bad as others, show you're caring.
This secret is wonderful

ST, your problems are just as real as any other person on the earth.

it dose'nt suck, sometimes the most painful hurt is the one you don't understand or feel is relevent, then it also makes you guilty and so, depresses you more. i'v been their

If you feel bad about failing school, having the lowest self-esteem and being paranoid, those 3 are real problems for you to solve.
Actually, I have quite low self-esteem and I am paranoid. But recently, even I hate myself about it, I would regret if I don't try to be happy. Please, don't try to compare yourself and other people...because that's what I've been doing...you may be able to stop it now.

This secret feels really familiar, just in terms of writing style etc...if it's who I think it is, don't worry
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
hmmmm.
you remind me a lot of a friend.
you'll get through. its not a crime to feel sorry for yourself now and again. but dont forget the more important things. you'll be right.

I'm basically the same.
Failing school - but I've decided to do something about it.
Used to have low self-esteem - But I've managed to feel good about myself. And now I'm pretty much convinced of my own awesomness xD
I'm still paranoid :/
Your secret doesn't suck.
Also your still suffering even if there are others suffering more.
I think self-pity is natural.
I wish you luck (:

This could be my secret, except for me, it isn't very secret and I dropped out of school earlier this year.
If you need someone to talk to, I can listen and understand.

You know what. They're big problems to you. Don't compare your problems to others, unless it's to make you feel like you can overcome something because someone else did.
You're not them and they're not you. So the "whose problems are worse" thing is pointless
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
"Only" failing school? ST, even if other people have bigger problems, the fact is, your problems are still important. I don't know your situation, but you might be able to get help if you really want to succeed.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I feel the exact same way, except my grades are great.
LOL, ANOTHER REASON TO HATE MYSELF FOR HAVING SO MUCH POINTLESS AND UNEARNED ANGST.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Same here 
Failing school though is something I would say is a bigger-than-nothing problem though.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Comparing your problems to others' blows things out of proportion. :/
Yours are very real and make mine seem trivial and stupid.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I know how that feels.
But whomever said this is right, thinking you dont have real problems doesnt help.
I am such a hypocrite
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I understand. And of course telling yourself other people have it worse doesn't help.
It only makes you feel more like you don't deserve even the good shit in life.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Everyone has problems; that doesn't make yours any less important.
But instead of just complaining about them and feeling sorry for yourself, maybe you should work to fix them.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
see? we dont think your secret sucks, what sucks is that you're feeling bad st... and if theres anyway i can help, i will do my best
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Those are real problems ST. They may not be the same problems other have but they are important issues especially to you. Don't sell yourself short ST your problems are important.
Perhaps you should see a tutor or talk to your teacher or prof about doing dome extra creidt assignments.

Yes, thats an interesting way of looking at things... thank you bezenartw, and thank you ST, know you're not alone in thinking this way sometimes
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I don't think it sucks. I feel the exact same way about life.
