YES OR NO

Well since i couldnt use the non runescape general discussion tab, (my dad blocked it somehow without blocking the rest of rsbandb...wierd) I shall have the Poll here, This is really random but i want to see how many of you people have a good self esteem compared to how many people have a bad self esteem. yes or no:

~Mediumwell~

Alittle bit of both.. I know who i am and some of the things of capable of.. Now and then some things bring me down a bit.. Never too seriously though.. Mostly when i was 15-17 i went through a period of despression, not for 2 years.. But yeah, i have been through alot of crap the last 5 years ever since i moved to the U.S.

Right now im feeling pretty good..

Pika my mother tried to kill her self... What you said really ***** me off dude. Have you ever had anyone related to you and close to you try and commet sucide. Guess what my mother tried to kill herself with??? Anti-depression pills!!! Yeah thats right the "stuff" that is ment to make it "all better."

Now for myself I love life, to much fun to waste on panicing over small stuff.

that is really **** up pika.. guess thats your opinion.. but too harsh.. self esteem is very real and apart of life. AND YOU CANT ALWAYS CHANGE IT!!!.. When you live with it, and its an unescapable thing, well guess what, you cant change it.

Why dont you get put into my shoes, for 5 years you have constantly been troubled by the immigration department, where you are waiting for your green card. Cant get a license, cant do jack **** because of the INS (immigration department).. Then also on top of that, having constant extra problems, like an abusive step dad, who broke my mums nose and almost killed me. Also abusing my neice when she was 1 years old. But he went to jail of course, i called the cops and that was over..

On top of that, add on being in school all at the same time, having to worry about all that crap. I dont care who the hell you are, if any person is put in an unescapable situation for 5 years + and still counting, its gonna eat you up one way or another..No matter how much you try to hide it. You cant do what you want, cant get a job, cant drive, cant go to college in this so called great nation..

There is alot more i can add but i wont, some of it is alittle too personal. This is some of the way i feel, it is also an opinion, not a flame war!. The truth is, everyone has self esteem, whether its making them sad, or happy. Everyone is affected with sad and happy parts of self esteem, no matter how perfect your life "seems".

Thats... Evil Pika... I heard you were nice. Dude... Whatever

Uh... sure

people must not read my messages or something, read over the "un-escapable" part a few times..

Anyways, i took pika's post the way i did..Obviously people who say do something about it, havent been through it. Its easier said than done.. Thats why after 6months i finally got rid of the things affecting me. Didnt need no anti depression pills or nothing.. Even though some ppl tried to get me on em.. depression also comes in many forms.. For some ppl its to the point of suicidal, some it just makes em feel like crap, and they dont moap around the place feeling sorry for themselves..
For me, sure it affected me and i felt like crap but it didnt stop me from going to school, doing jrotc, cross country team, 3 teams in jrotc and all that.. It was my escape from the crap at home.

right...um... well im pretty much an optimist...sometimes i c stuff a bit pessimisticallly but mostly i try to look on the good side of life and laugh a little at my own problems...right...um...cuss-filled thread, no?

I have pretty good self-esteem and try to help others that are down.
