All of a sudden finding myself sad and worrying?

Mental health

I first want to thank you for clicking on this, and possibly responding to it. It means a lot to me that people take the time to read people's stories. So thanks. 

I am 14 years old, a freshman, and have just started private high school two months ago. I did not have anyone from my old school come with me to my new school. Really tough not knowing anyone. 

Anyways, The first month was as good as it could be. Everyone was friendly, I was making friends, getting good grades, and feeling really happy and thankful. At my middle school, I was the president of the school, I was in charge of community service, a trivarsity athlete, and many other things. The point is that I felt great about myself. I was always happy and easygoing no matter what stood in my way. 

This past month has been the worst of my life. Four thursday's ago, I was studying for a latin quiz, and I completly began crying. Everywhere. I finally was able to get it together, and I went to class and it happened again. In front of everybody; it was so embarrasing. This was the beginning of my struggle that I am still attempting to cope with. These past four weeks have been mostly sad and worrying. Three weeks ago, I was so worried that I was not good at soccer that I faked a cold the whole week to get out of it. Ever since, Mondays have sucked. I cry three or four different times over the course of the day. I have NEVER been someone to be emotional, but I find myself crying everyday multiple times. Life just really sucks now. I've tried to explain this to my parents, but they don't think something is mentally wrong. While I have never actually attempted or thought in detail about killing myself, I get feelings of uslessness and unimportance. I feel stupid at this new school. I have no friends, I am all of a sudden turning very anti-social, which I have never been. Also, I am always thinking pessimisticly. For example, this is our last week before thanksgiving and then we have a week off. But In my mind, all I can think about is how short one week is and that I am just going to have to come back to school after and undergo the same thing. 

I have also thought consistantly about how much easier life would be if I could just be an adult. They don't have to go to school, be told what to do, and study for tests and exams. 

This has been really really hard for me. I think I need strong advice because I really don't know what to do anymore. If your still with me, thank you because I would love answers. I am really upset and looking for guidance. Thank you for reading.

Hi Tony.

I can understand how horrible this must be for you especially at such a young age, your body is changing, a new school, your thoughts have changed.

You took the major step by posting on here and we will help and support you as a forum.

Is it the school ?. Did anything happen prior to feeling like this?/ Is it your first time away from him?

Tony its not easy being an adult, you have to pay for gas, electric, telephone, water rates, tv license

Mortgage or rent, them find money for food.

I likely missed a few bills.

Be young, be yourself, being an adult will come with time and you will wish you were at school without all the stress. I do at times.

Thank you for writing and you will receive support.

Have you any counselling at school?

Xx

Hi Tony, You are young and maybe going through physical changes, this will affect your emotional state, which is why you are crying alot. It's a tough time. You have also started a new school without your friends, you have exams, this is all big changes for you. Have you a Counsellor or a tutor you can talk to and confide in It maybe that a bit of reassurance is what you need. Good luck.

Hi I am not an expert at this but I think you need to get to the root of your problem,  why you are crying and why you worry so much. I also think that you need to fully explain what and how you feel to your parents. I hope that this helps. Good luck.
