in life.
00:01 - 00:05
Some teenagers have a very overwhelming and hard time whether
00:05 - 00:09
it's with school work home or friends but others they
00:10 - 00:13
have such an amazing exciting and easy time of high
00:13 - 00:17
school. Some teenage struggle with many of these things because
00:18 - 00:20
they have a mind set of who wants me there,
00:22 - 00:25
they have depression and anxiety and they don't know how
00:25 - 00:26
to go through their school work alone.
00:28 - 00:34
I was one of those students in school, I was
00:34 - 00:36
never the brightest or the best of my schoolwork because
00:37 - 00:38
of this I was given three I.
00:38 - 00:39
E. P.
00:39 - 00:41
S. These gave me more time on assignments or tests
00:42 - 00:43
and then we use extra resources.
00:45 - 00:47
The downside of this was I had to leave the
00:47 - 00:49
classroom with another teacher to learn slower.
00:50 - 00:54
It made me feel very unintelligent and it made me
00:54 - 00:55
overthink make other students.
00:57 - 01:02
I thought that I was the dumb one but in
01:02 - 01:07
the long run I realized it wasn't to torture me.
01:08 - 01:10
It was to help me to get through school work
01:11 - 01:14
easier For from 1st to 7th grade.
01:14 - 01:19
I struggled with these thoughts and when I finally was
01:19 - 01:21
able to get off of those I PS I thought
01:21 - 01:29
it was a godsend for many years.
01:29 - 01:34
I struggled with two major things, depression and anxiety.
01:35 - 01:36
My home life in my school life weren't great.
01:37 - 01:39
It felt as though I was alone and then no
01:39 - 01:40
one would miss me.
01:40 - 01:43
I thought it would be fine if you were gone
01:48 - 01:50
to have so much love for everyone else and they
01:50 - 01:52
just smash it down on you.
01:52 - 01:54
Made me feel like I didn't want to feel any
01:54 - 01:55
of that love anymore.
01:57 - 02:00
I had a lot of mistrust, misguided mindsets of who
02:00 - 02:01
cares about you.
02:02 - 02:03
I didn't see the light at the end of the
02:03 - 02:13
tunnel, but for some people, they are able to find
02:13 - 02:18
a person, a thing in their life that will make
02:18 - 02:20
it better and for me that was my boyfriend and
02:21 - 02:21
his family.
02:23 - 02:24
They showed me the light at the end of the
02:24 - 02:30
tunnel, but they made me a perspective that may be
02:30 - 02:32
nothing. Look for the light at the end of the
02:33 - 02:35
tunnel it was more get to the top of the
02:35 - 02:38
hill, see that sunset, see that beautiful life of yours.
02:40 - 02:42
They showed me the beautiful parts of life and that
02:42 - 02:47
I didn't always have to struggle though in teenagers, it
02:47 - 02:49
is a very big learning experience on whether or not
02:50 - 02:53
they should keep a friend or if they want to
02:53 - 02:56
fail school at a very hard time being able to
02:56 - 02:59
keep friends, they either thought I was faking who I
03:00 - 03:07
was or they were the ones being fake having lost
03:08 - 03:10
so many friends made me never want to trust anyone
03:11 - 03:16
again. I was heartbroken and I was sad that so
03:16 - 03:17
many people had left me.
03:18 - 03:22
But many years later I learned that I could be
03:22 - 03:26
able to change myself without them, That I could be
03:26 - 03:29
my own self and find the right friends that would
03:29 - 03:30
love me for me.
03:32 - 03:37
I saw myself worth again and I saw how I
03:37 - 03:38
should be treated by others.
03:39 - 03:41
If people didn't want to like me who by who
03:41 - 03:44
I was, I wasn't going to let them stay in
03:44 - 03:44
my life.
03:45 - 03:50
Having to learn this made it very difficult because it's
03:50 - 03:52
a hard concept to comprehend.
03:54 - 03:57
I do hope that when other teenagers go through friend
03:57 - 04:00
brief won't always be a struggle, it gets a lot
04:00 - 04:03
better. I would want her to know that extra help
04:04 - 04:06
was very much needed for us to succeed in school
04:07 - 04:11
and in life later on, if I had known that
04:11 - 04:13
most of my friendships wouldn't end out great, I probably
04:14 - 04:17
wouldn't have fought so hard for them that would have
04:17 - 04:27
moved on and lived my life when wanting to know
04:27 - 04:29
if these three times in my life came together, you
04:29 - 04:30
can see that it's a sequence of events.
04:32 - 04:35
I struggled with friends which made me struggle with my
04:35 - 04:40
school work and then leaving, leading to self worth being
04:40 - 04:42
able to see how I changed throughout the years.
04:43 - 04:46
It's truly amazing to me and it to make it
04:47 - 04:48
to the end of high school is just as amazing
04:49 - 04:50
because I didn't think I would make it that far.
04:53 - 04:55
Many other teens can feel the same way because they
04:55 - 04:59
may have struggled the way I did, whether it's with
04:59 - 05:04
schoolwork, families, friends or depression, I would want them to
05:04 - 05:06
know that they are never alone.
05:06 - 05:09
They always have at least one person or one thing
05:09 - 05:10
that is on their side.
