im 16 years old and im from new york city Hey! Tyra I didn’t find a section for this but I will like to share my dreams with you. I love your show I love your personality and when I watch your shows I really connect to how nice you are and how much you’re willing to help those who reach your program in need of help. I don’t want to write so much; so here is my story. I love singing but I have never felt confident about my singing friends and others always tell me I can sing. I love singing like I said but I just don’t really know if I’m good at it even though my dream is to become a singer. my other dream is to have my own show like yours n one day be in a cover girl commercial I loveeee makeup and for some reason I dream on being in a cover girl commercial I just love cover girl cosmetics ; when I’m watching American next top model and you guys are doing cover girl shoots I stand up I start practicing the phrase myself " easy, breezy, beautiful cover girl " .But the problem is my mother is a single mother and she cant afford many things and I try looking for opportunities to become what I want to be in life. I’ve been to places and they all always want to invest first they want money and the amount is always something my mother can’t afford at all. So then I go home and I get really depressed sometimes because I start thinking am I ever going to make it am I one day going to be in a commercial like I dream or in the radio listening to one

Hey Tyra, I'm 15. I have an issue with drugs and drinking. it just seems like it never stops. I smoke weed. I take pills... I snort pills. When my family gets some kind of pain medication, it takes all the self control I have to not steal them. I have been unable to sleep before, because all I could think about was drugs, and how I was going to get high again...and I can't get out of this addiction. I think I do it because I feel really depressed...and When I get depressed, I even start to cut my self...sometimes it goes way too far and goes beyond that, to new ways I hurt myself. I was just wondering if you had advice for me...or some ware I can go for help, I need out and I don't want to do it my way, and I need it all to stop, I really really need it to stop...I'm scared I'm going to drop out of high school...and end up dead. Any help?

Dear Tyra, well i LOVE ur show so much. you are someone that i look up to. idk if you will ever read this with your busy schedule but i would love it if you did read it. well i am a recovering from being a cutter since the 7th grade. I am now a senior n highschool and have been off cutting for 2months. It is so hard. i really want to be there for others that are in to cutting or trying to quit because i know how hard it is. I have lived a very ruff life with a dad who is just extremly creepy and a mother who seems not to care. and a brother who is in to drugs. hopefully when you read this you will do another show and reach out to more girls who are cutters. I have been also more or less molested severl times and all of these things led to me cutting. Now i am a girl who fakes so much so ppl dont worry. well just wanted to give you a shout out and say you are trully amazing and would love to meet you one day. Lots of love....jess for indiana. P.S. i think you should do shows with cutting and all the molesting and rape. reach out....you are a wonderful role model. keep up the good work.

I am 14 and I’m getting ready to go to high school. All my life I have dealt with people doubting my intelligence. There are times that I think to myself why do you even try, everyone says that your not bright why are you even still trying. I keep trying to tell myself that I am not stupid, I am an intelligent person, and I am going to finish high school get a scholarship and go to a good 4 year college and graduate. But how can I do this if people doubt me, telling met that I am not smart enough to do this and if I really want to go to college I should go to a 2 year college, it might be better for me. And that I might not even graduate from there. Myself esteem is really low right now and being around my family is not helping it at all.

Well, my teenage years have been hard. I've had to deal with an absent father, and the only time he calls or anything is when he wants to talk about himself. I had to go through an abusive relationship. And I got over hurting myself. I used to think that every bad thing was sooo bad, and was the end of the world, but really it's not that bad. I now have a new sense of self, and got my life back. I live by these lyrics "Go on and brush your shoulders off" cause thats the only way to do it. Take things with a grain of salt, and don't let it bother you.

Hey Tyra, I'm 15 and I live in Windsor Ontario.Tyra,I have a dream, I want to become a model. It's my dream, It's all I ever wanted to do. My parents don't have the time to enroll me into any agency and anyways, there's nothing here in Windsor. Tyra I want this so badly. I wanna belong to the model world, I want to show my family, my friends, I want to show everyone that dreams do come true, and most importantly, I want to do this for myself. I understand how hard it is, and I'm willing to give my all, and go for it. Tyra I may be 15 but age is but a number. I'm 5'8 and I know I've got what it takes. I just need someone to guide me, and that's all. I believe in myself so much that I don't need anyone to push me through this. I want to belong to the modelling world, not because I want to be famous, not because of the money, I just want to be wonderful, I want to belong to something. I want to find my place in life, and I know that being in front of the camera, is where I want to be for the rest of my life. You are my idol Tyra, you always have been. And I want to be an idol too, for all the girls who have though they can't do something, I want to show young girls like me that anything is possible, no matter who you are no matter where you're from, no matter how much money you have to live with. I need this Tyra, and I want this. I want to make everyone proud.Please Tyra, help me. You are the only hope I have. And
