HOW TO CHEER MYSELF UP!? (5)

1 Name: okiedokie !0UZD1OR/j. : 2015-05-01 16:54 ID:P0raFzYg [Del]

Hello fellow dollars!
The personal board is filled with posts similar to this or about the subject of depression. I'd love to help all you beautiful people with their troubles, but unfortunately I'm too awkward and in no way a person that can easily comfort people :/
But I do try and I don't expect anything back.

Unfortunately, I'm being a bit selfish here, but I feel in simplest terms: Under the weather.

Today was an ok day: I laughed alot, spoke to my friends, handed in completed homework, chatted and generally a day where you feel like smiling until your cheeks hurt.
But everytime I come back from school or from being w/ my friends, the euphoria ends and I'm left numb and empty.
I get teased alot a school for being myself- and not exactly apologizing for it.

But the thing that really bugs me is people being dared/asked to 'ask them out' or 'say hi and a stupid comment'. Its like "Oh yeah here's a laugh! Go ask the fat(or whatever) kid out! Truly hilarious!" (idiots 😐)
Its just I've been 'asked out' 59 times since the start of the year( and 498 since I was 11). And I feel that if someone did /actually/ want to go out with me it would be a joke.

After this great day of mine, someone made one of these comments to me. I found out he was dared and shrugged it off.
But its kinda stuck in my head, not a nice feeling tbh.

So I was wondering if any of you know any small (or big) ways to cheer myself up!!

Thank you for reading and have a nice day :)

Well, I'm actually impressed you had the vigilance to keep count of something like that O_O That's not something I'd ever keep up with; not that I'd have to, since people don't ask me out at all for any reason, but that isn't the point.

Anyways, I feel like, since this is more of a melancholy than anything, an easy way to escape that feeling is to indulge in your passion for something; go and lose yourself in something you enjoy and you'll feel so much better, and it also helps if there're friends around online or in person for you to chat with all day, because that's kinda what I do as well. Sometimes having people to complain to who won't really judge you at all is all you really need to not feel annoyed or upset anymore in that respect.

As for being yourself, there's no other person for you to be ;) so I don't see anything wrong with that. People can tease and tease you and it won't change anything if you don't let it, and I personally don't bother giving obnoxious people any weight in my life; I've never had the issue, really, of being threatened by other people in that way, and I don't know if that's through dumb luck or tenacity (possibly both).

In any case I hope that helps and, if you want, we could chat more through some sort of medium if that would help XD.

About the part of "59" times and "489 since you're 11". I'm not sure.
Sorry to say, but are you showing off or what?
Because that isn't nice. -_-
It's just I'm not sure, it's not directly "I don't trust you".
It just bothers me the way you are bothered about those who asked you out.
But about your problem. I think what I can say, is to change yourself if it's about those idiots fooling you.
Like if someone commited that it's just a dare , don't get speechless and left sad and disappointed. Try to jerk him off too like saying "I know, I know you're just pretending/Or Somewhat."
Or made it an inspiration! Like, do something with your talent. Think of them, and do them your punchbags.
Or if you think my idea won't work. Like you think it's too dumb to do.
Then the best thing for you to do is to get used to it.
Be flexible about this, someday you'll get used to it and it's like it's just some kind of joke that will just make you laugh for a bit.
And don't forget to make yourself happy when you are down about this.
You have friends right? then be thankful you have them than nothing.
That's what I can say.
I don't think this helps that much, but well, I did my best to give my ideas.

>>2 thanks for the advice~
>>3 I have a notebook where I keep all the numbers. Plus I hate boasting or showing off. Obviously I don't expect you to 100% believe me :/
People get dared to say/ do things to me other than 'asking out', like tugging my hair really hard or trying to trip me up. I normally laugh it off and remain happy, but sometimes its hard too.

I think you idea is good and Ill try and make it my inspiration!

Just ignore, they'll get tired of you someday.
No problem.
