Why can't you just go home yourself after school? And you should just find a place outside of your house that you like being at. Otherwise just let time pass and you will get used to it. If you find something to keep you preoccupied you will also notice it less. Do something you enjoy.

Well I can see how a 3 hour bus ride is a bother. Perhaps get a ride with a friend who lives close by if you can? Otherwise I'm not sure.

And are there no places close to where you live where you can go?

Yeah, no real need to go find out why the cops were involved. But aren't there some places close by that you could go to even though you're outside the city? I'm just talking about anything really. Park, library, cafes, book stores, random stuff, etc.

Well then I don't really know what else to suggest other than to adapt. Simply try to get used to the changes. And it's not like you won't have any privacy. You can also go find someplace in the woods where you can go when the weather is nice.

Hi there, my name is Adam and I'm new to Teenhut. Personally, I would suggest that you simply read. As you said, you do see the meteor showers outside your deck, I'm assuming it's a very calm and subtle place to be. I know it seems a bit pathetic, being in our generation and all, but in all honesty, reading really calms everything down. It secludes you from all your problems and just relaxes you :] It'll help, trust me.

Maybe you should find a park or something near your house where you can walk to

why would you lock yourself in the bathroom and cry about the fact you want to be alone? seriously go outside and sit under a tree, it's a lot nicer

Changing your system is stresfull sometimes but you got to make the best out of what you got...

Cant you go somewhere a little out of the way and rest or do whatever you like doing there?

I can understand your situation a little bit because after a days work i wont feel like going home and helping out my mum and day in everyday chores, i feel trapped, but looking at this negatively does not help!

Stop beating yourself about being selfish, i think this is what keeps you from improving the situation. Its a fase you will go through and thats it...if you feel down, well thats life, do something about it....im sure you can find something you like doing there, you said you like writing stories, (thats something i used to do to 'stay alone') then i guess you got quite a good imagination....think of something interesting

The important thing is dont keep putting yourself down for something very very normal...
Its normal for you to want your own space, thats not being selfish....the only thing now is stop waisting time from being depressed and act apon it...

You can certainly do it!!!

(I dont know if you understood my point, i hope i helped in some way, if you need anything we ara just a post away)

Hey I understand you want to have your own space in your house right beside your parents and it's selfish from them to hold you down by carrying you to their work place, but I tell you it's awful to feel lonely I'm living this I tell you and it's aweful really, it sucks!! I think you shall consider what they do to you like they want you to go out and get a job instead of staying home alone, writing stories, but that's a good thing that you have your imagination flies you let it be and certainly you won't lose that gift you have, you can use your free time for doing such things as writing taking in place that the experiences you live through your day, and the week, while you are doing your job interacting with people telling you stories can help you to inspire you to write better and more interesting things.
What do you thing? Wanna give it a good try? I hope that what I'm telling you give you any idea about what to do!

I suggest just going on a walk. You don't have to walk to anywhere specifically, just.... walk. It's what I do when I need time alone to think. I usually take my ipod with me too

the best way is just to tell them, that you havnt been having a good week or whatnot and ask if they can drop you at homebefroe work so you can just do what you do
