A reader, anonymous, writes (15 December 2011):

Hey. My cousin has been treated with Major Depressive Syndrome for 6 months. Only 3 months ago he came out and told people close to him (family). he is now in a hospital and allowed home for weekends but he says he is so much happier now than he has been for a year or two. It sounds like you have really low self esteem and the best thing to do first would be talking about it with your parents then finding some help.

Don't put yourself through it any longer.

Good luck

aunt honesty agony auntYou need to go and get professional help. It sounds like you may have depression along side low self esteem issues. If you have tried to the best that you can and you cannot get by this. Then go and visit your doctor or a therapist who will be able to help you professionally and look at different angles from your past as to why you feel like this.
