Hi...I'm a 16 year old girl, and i have a
problem. I have low self confidence. I
have too much time on my hands, and i
seriously need someone to talk to. I'm
messing up big time. Since the 7th grade i
have stolen pictures and created fake
online profiles, pretending to be someone
else...because i dont think anyone would
want to talk to the real me. I've made
friends through these profiles and
honestly, lied...a lot. I've gone so far
as to talking to someone on the phone and
telling them that i had Heart disease for
attention. I know a lot of people may be
thinking "wow, your an idiotic teenager"
but it's not like that. I think theres
something wrong with me. It might be
attention seeking, maybe im a pathological
liar...I need help. I need to talk to
someone that won't sit there and judge me,
but just listen. I think im suffering from
depression...im not sure. I'm scared, im
alone, and i need help. Please

Be yourself and be truthful. Remember, one
lie needs to be followed up by a hundred
more after that. It is easier then you
think being yourself. You have nothing to
be ashamed off do you. If you do. come
clean and lead the life of reality instead
of living in a dream world. You will fell
much better for this.
It is way to easy to hide behind a
computer screen now days. I feel this way,
I am who I am and people have the choice
to like me for who I am or just ignore me.
