For me, and this is my extroverted side showing, I sometimes get “friend-crushes”, basically wanting to be friends with someone but also going through the awkwardness of having a crush.

Hiding my feelings from others, because I’m worried about what people will think of me if

Social-anxiety.

Many of us are going through that, even though it feels like you are the only one. I promise, you are not alone.

Anxiety and self doubt but then I’m not the only one so no self-pitying.

You are not alone, friend. Nothing wrong with a pity party every once in awhile as long as you don't let it overtake your whole life.

Constant pressure of getting perfect grades, pleasing everyone, and not showing my feelings or being over-confident because I am afraid I'll get bullied again.

Not being allowed to cry or be angry without fear of chastisement, pressuring myself to be perfect

My sister has a mental illness that developed recently. She will go from all smiles and my best friend to complete rage monster in a BAD way. She will say things that really hurt me and never seems sorry. It’s really hard. And I feel like my parents aren’t doing anything and I get the blame for not wanting to be with her.

Being divorced more than once. The first time was like, ok this is normal, people get divorced. But the second time felt stigmatizing. I know other people have been through it, but I don't know anyone else and it feels like I'm the only one.

You're not the only one to experience this, but I get the stigmatism. Just remember it takes a lot more strength to face reality and leave a bad marriage than it does to live in denial and stay in one. Please be kind to yourself and treat this as an opportunity for growth and self discovery. What other people do or say is their business, but you can choose to be kind to yourself. You deserve so very much better. This is your time. Sending hugs from a fellow panda and wishing you all the very best x

Even when I just eat a little bit I get fat off of it. My stomach with extend a lot. I am pretty sure I just have a really bad digestive system because I can't eat without getting stomach aches either. It will go away after a few hours but I look fat after I eat. I am a healthy thin girl but not after I eat. So this leads to crippling depression and I hate the way my body looks after I eat. I am 16 by the way

I’m so sorry! I’m also a teen with low self esteem when it comes to my body. I bet you’re beautiful (not in a creepy way) something that has helped me is to look at myself in the mirror for ten minutes a day.
