    Question

    I'm sick of my mom not listening, boys and their drama, and school. Sometimes I don't even want to step out of bed. Added to that is because of boy drama I can't trust my close friend and some don't even want to be around me because I've "changed." Help!

    Answer

    Welcome to 13! You sound like you could use someone "new" to talk to. How about making an appointment with your doctor or school counselor and telling him or her what is going on and then asking your mom if your insurance will cover you talking to a professional counselor. Personally, I think every teen needs someone they trust to talk to! Do not be alone - find a trusted professional to talk with! Good luck!
