i want to be accepted not rejected, but its not like i dont like doing it, i think ive done it too much

Answer
Dear Teen: You need to find a much better way of feeling accepted than giving "too many favors" which is risky both physically and emotionally. What you need to do now is get yourself into some counseling to find out why you feel you need to do this as it seems to be giving you the opposite of the acceptance you want.
