Hey, Pandas! Tell Us Your Problems, Please (Closed)

I know I'm the one who made this ask pandas thing, but I have problems too soooooooo... MY aunt died and I don't know how I can get past that. The guy I like has a gf and won't talk to me. I found out that a friend that I consider a brother likes me((yes in that way)). I have depression and can't get out of it. My mom is slowly going back to doing drugs... and yea there's way more but im just gonna stop here... X)

I have a teacher in high school that sucks. He’s a nice person, he just sucks as a teacher. He has no teaching experience for the class because our old teacher got fired for budget cuts (my school only puts funds in sports), so he was hired to be in her place. He went from not giving a crap about us and being more focused on his other class, to (now on online school) assigning us sooo many assignments. In my other classes, (I only have 4) I have 20 assignments in one class, 17 in another, and 15 in the last one. In the class with the bad teacher, he has assigned 49 assignments!! In only 2 months!! And they all take forever to do and it’s all super overwhelming. I tried telling him that he’s assigning too much but it’s all just excuses, excuses, no solutions. This class went from a get-away from life to having life being a get-away from this class. Does anyone have any advise on what I can do to deal with him/his assignments?

I don't even know where to start but first of all, I have a horrible relationship with my mom. She emotionally abuses me by calling me names, telling me to shut up, and she once threatened to throw a glass on my head but she said she "wouldn't do that because she doesn't want to go to jail" I have so many emotional problems because of her, but I can't tell anyone or get away from her (I'm 12). I feel really horrible because she's my mom, but I don't know what to do. I'm also bi/leaning more towards girls, and don't know how to tell my parents (well, just my stepdad, really) I keep saying I'll tell them when I'm older, but I can't stand those awkward moments where they ask me about boys. I would really appreciate some advice from fellow pandas.

My baby just had major surgery and I’m struggling to get out of debt over it: https://www.gofundme.com/f/a-miracle-for-marzipan

My job is killing me. I'm working 13 hours a day for days a week and ten the other day. They're talking about making us come in on our days off. They took away the only part of the job I like and gave it to someone else to do. I'm tired. I'm depressed. I'm angry. I've lost most of my friends because I don't have time to be around them. I'm a mail carrier. It sucks to be us right now. My route had over 900 deliveries, half of which are residential and I have to walk to reach of those houses, but management says I'm the problem, not the route size. I'm literally having suicidal thoughts every day.

I can't figure out what to do with my life. I have great social and public speaking skills. I love economics and anthropology as well as marketing. I'm currently in college and not sure If I should change colleges or majors. What the heck do I do? I also really want an internship this summer and have done a few interviews for them. I really want to get one but I enrolled in college many years early (3 years) so I am pretty young to be working and am not sure if some companies will hire me because of my age. AGHHHHHH!

I suffer from depression and anxiety. I can give advice but I never follow it myself. I hesitate when faced with a choice because I want to do the right thing and always end up choosing the wrong thing. I am shy and socially awkward. I care very little for clothes, makeup, and boys, marking me as an outcast with most girls in my grade. I'm a lesbian, marking me as an outcast with most people in my school. I have a few close friends, and during lunch, rather than exchange gossip and tell secrets, we discuss politics and the news.

So, in other words, I get bullied and shunned because I'm different. Also, forgot to mention that I frequently get called a witch because I have a large nose, and I used to get teased for reading, writing, and doing math at an advanced level. And my parents refuse to accept anything other than almost perfection. If I don't do something really well they accuse me of slacking off, or not trying as hard as I could. They don't understand that I make mistakes sometimes, or that no one can do anything perfectly 100% of the time.

I have dyslexia and ADHD, THat makes it very hard to do things. And I am depressed, I have two failed attempts and scar all over my arms. I've gotten to the point where a have gone to a mental hospital for a few days. I am not okay and school is not making it any better.

My missus has been going through the menopause for over 6 years now. I know that it is not her fault but it is doing my head in. When i am on my way home from work it terrifies me what mood she is going to be in. I know that she is a nice person but when she has her moods on it is very distressing. I try to stay silent and not argue with her but sometimes it gets to a point that i verbally explode and then the neighbors call the police then i get arrested. I feel bad after and go and sit in another room but she follows me around. She also refuses to get medical help for this as she says it has side effects. I have spoken to female colleagues about this and they give advice and recommendations but she still refuses.

I can be a loud mouth and kinda mean sometimes and I can't really help it, so sorry in advanced if i'm mean to you, unless you deserve it ;)

(I know i'm going to get attacked by *ahem* pEoPlE in the comments so if you do, don't waste your time on a 7th grader)

This past year my depression and anxiety has gotten worse then ever. I can't focus because my stomach is hurting so bad from the anxiety i feel from all school work i have to do, i can't sleep and i have a headache everyday because of everything. I don't know how to be happy anymore and i just want to give up all the time. It's so hard to wake up in the mornings and i don't want to be around anybody bc it's exhausting for me and i feel like i'm going to get mad at my friends and hurt their feelings

You know I think existential dread is a good place to start, as well as fact that people think its so easy to be a guy, while in reality ''Oh your gf broke up with you? MAN UP'' is a common situation.

Having autism. Being autistic makes me much more sensitive to things, especially loud noises. I cry at the drop of a hat and I'm worried people think of me as "the weird nerd."

Hey Pandas!

I'm currently an intern, soon to be a mental health counselor.

I'd like to write some of these things down, formulate my advice & input, then submit it to my supervisor for feedback.

I *WOULD NEVER* include your name/username/avatar, just a literal 'aerial view' - which is why I'd be writing them, not using screenshots.

If you are *opposed* / hard pass / BIG NO from you, I will absolutely respect that...just LMK...

Of course, now that I've 'fessed up to the reason behind my intentions, I can't dump my own sh*t!
Thank you! Y'all are the best!

I think i might have ADHD and have a lot of the symptoms and don't know how to tell my parents. Also i have a bunch of Homework and i get distracted and its
so hard to focus and it takes me forever to do the homework and they are like 10 pages long on a daily basis.

I haven't seen most of my friends in way to long. video calls do not suffice. i need my friends so much - they're the reason i used to get up on time - i would see them at school. well, that doesn't happen right now, does it? i'm doing online school.

the fact i can't see them - it's eating me up inside. i have no siblings, so the only people i interact with face to face are my parents. i love them - but i'm getting sick of being around them 24/7. i stay up at night just so i can have some time away from them, not have them constantly want to do things with me when all i want to do is curl up and read a book or cry. i cry myself to sleep way too often these days. i don't cry in front of my parents, i don't tell them all of this, and they can't tell. if i did they would constantly be worrying about me, asking me if i'm ok. I'M NOT! i'm just trying to get through the day and not burst into tears.

I haven't seen my mom since February. Her nursing home locked down and I wasn't able to celebrate her 60th birthday with her. Stress is a major issue I've always had. I have stressed out my system so badly that I now have a chronic hive condition. I finally broke down and got a medical alert bracelet that I call my 'I don't wanna die' band.

Everyone is suffering hard core with depression because of COVID, personal reasons, and seasonal Depression has started for my area of the world. I'm the boss so I have to stay strong of my people and my work site that I'm stressing out more. Enforcing Covid precautions is easier where I'm at but we've still had a few instances of not wanting to wear a mask.

I'm pissed about some stuff too but that frustration is coming from the depression and the stress. I'm fully aware I have control issues so the lack of control and being able to do even basic things is hitting me hard.

As a general rule I'm a pretty grounded individual. I know the root of a lot of my issues and I've been debating going back into therapy just to get some of this crap off my back but I wound up being more of a therapist to my last three and I'm not at a place right now where I want to spend the time it will take to find someone who won't be like that with me.

Lastly I'm just tired. I've been single the majority of my adult life and I'm tired of hearing that I'm intimidating, or I should dumb myself down for others. I'm tired of Covid, I'm tired of stress, I miss seeing my sister almost every week, and I'm just tired in general. Yes I know it's the depression, it's also a side effect of the antihistamine's I take for the chronic Hives and the sleeping pills I take for the chronic Insomnia but I'm still tired and it sucks.

I get so bored. There are times when I'm fine, I can just lie on the ground for hours and not get bored. Then there are times where I need to do something, like talk to someone or read a book, or my mind will just go dead and I am just sooooo bored. I need more things to do when I'm bored! Help!
