I feel... Well, hopeless lately. I cry much easier than I did a few years ago. Just about anything sets off the waterworks nowadays- from someone yelling to my own thoughts. I have to "Pee" every passing class, it seems like, just so tears dont stream down my face. I feel very lonely also. Im very shy and live far from my school- I only have 1 friend in walking distance but a high risk sex offender lives on her street... I usually turxn to the internet for all my socialization. I guess that Im asking about shyness along with depression. Please help me- Im very emotional right now (you know, as a 13 y-o) and I cant go to anybody in person about this without crying literally uncontrollably. Please, any advice will help. I feel helpless and even pathetic. Im too shy around even my best friends. Please Im begging- I know I need some kind of help but should I go to my school counselor or a professional? The problem is its hard to think about my mom and dad knowing im this desperate.........
