to make a change, my comment is not to Tyra, but to all of the girls who wrote a comment below. me too i have problems in my life, sometimes i wish i could just die and never have to live again, and i thought by reading this page would make me find a part of myself in each of your comments. My moral is: i have 1 best friend and its myself, because im the one i know for shure will always do my best for myself and others, because thats the only way you don't have to expect anything from anybody else. if you have yourself, you have the world. and all this is not about being selfish! its important to feel good with yourself because you live with yourself 24/7 for your whole life. Always act the way you think is the best and don't hurt people because you're hurt. Help people and it will help you. I'm 16, im teaching myself to love life the way it is and not getting mad over stupid things. i've been thru many things, sometimes really hard things i thought i wouldnt survive, but look, im still here and i have a world to take care of, a boyfriend to love, a brother to help growing and parents to thank. i know we are rarely forgiven our mistakes, but we live with them and we live because we always owe somthing to someone. Love your life, you have one.

Hi, Tyra. I'm a seventeen year old that is getting ready to go off to college. A few days ago, I became extremely emotional and I found it hard to breathe and I started to worry a lot. The day before, I was texting my friend while she was visiting a college and she suddenly stopped texting. I started to panic, wondering if she was okay. That was probably the first, and least troubling, of my panic attacks. About 20 minutes later, she started texting again. After that, I calmed down and everything was fine. The next day, I started to think back to that moment and about college and how she and I would do there. I began to worry again about her again. all day, I was in nonstop panic mode. I would break down into tears every half hour and get the starngest feelings, like I was going to die or I was going crazy, and I could barely eat anything. A day later, I started to develop the weirdest ideas, like I felt like I was turning gay. The only probably was that i have no attraction to the same sex at all and I am always checking guys out. Of course, the more I tried to push these thoughts away, the worse they became. I'm still freaking out and I've been looking at chats about certain topics. I know for a fact i am not gay, but my brain keeps telling me I am. I know I'll be fine if I can just relax; and I just can't. I think I am having an anxiety disorder and I just don't know how to deal with it. Talking to my mother and friends about it is doing little help. i don't know what to do.

I am a 19 year old mother of a beautiful one year old. In the short time that I've been alive - i feel that I've been thru things a 30 year old has been thru. When i was younger, I did drink & i partied, i did well in school and was involved in many extracurricular activities. I did the did when i was 14 with a guy i had just met, while i was under the influence of alcohol ={...I've put my parents thru hell and back...but no one could hold me back...i turned 16 moved to north town and found the "love of my life" my junior year. He was emotionally, mentally, & physically abusive & i changed everything about myself for him...i walked on glass when i was with him...thru constant cheating and aurguments...i stayed with him & my Senior year i got preggers. My parents found out from the school after 3 months of my BF blackmailing me that he would tell my parents if I didnt do everything the way he wanted. The BF pulled some BS to my parents how he was gonna be responsible and take care of me...3 week after that he was out and about telling everyone that he didnt think it was his...THE WHOLE SCHOOL KNEW...HE TOLD THE GIRLS HE WAS TALKING TO AND HIS exGFS(YES MORE THAN ONE)...he disappeared after i confronted him...he poped back up in june around my graduation made an appearance and disappeared again...a week after i graduated I started working fulltime--i was 6 months pregnant and alone. I paid for my Dr visits myself i took care of the hospital bills myself and i bought everything she needed (with lots of help from my mom). He was there for the delivery & he came
 
Tyra, im a 14 year old girl im very athletic and my stomach is flat but its my legs and butt that I hate! I have a little bit of streth marks on the inside of my thighs is that natural? Or fat? Some girls say its not fat your just thick. I feel fat I don't wear any girly shorts only basketball shorts and pants and come on its summer! I honestly hate being like this I need help with my legs I cry all the time about them! I weigh 118 and my thighs are about 60% of the lbs I need advice to get rid of the flubbery fat!
 
i'm 17, a virgin (by choice, i have morals) i drink a lot, smoke pot often and sometimes smoke cigarettes. addiction runs in my family, so i try to be careful and not take stuff too far. i've never been in a fight, though if someone hit me, i wouldn't be able to walk away. i go to a lot of parties, get really drunk, walk home sometimes or stay where i can, life isn't so bad, it just gets hard sometimes, my family kinda hates me and my brother is the golden boy, even though he smokes more pot and drinks more than i do, and they know it. my parents wont buy me the basic clothes i need, it sucks. i need to get a job just so i can pay for my basics
 
I'll be fourteen in a month but I don't care. Everyone will greet me just to have a free meal. The world will go on with or without me. I'm fat, ugly, and very dominant for a girl. I'm terrible in acting, singing, dancing and any kind of sports. My mom hates me. My classmates hate me. Unlike those wild girls, I don't use drugs, do anything illegal, drink liquor or have sex. I wish I had the courage to do so, maybe then someone will notice me and pity me. Right now I'm just a perfectly average student with an unbearable attitude, ugly face and fat body. They all do these things to get noticed. The extremely fat girls (I saw one in Tyra show who weighed 600 pounds if I had it right) have their fat lovers. The extremely skinny girls have their admirers. The voluptuous girls have the attention they want. I'm completely average and no one cares. In fact, my story is so boring everyone will just skip on my comment. Who cares? I'll die and no one will bat an eyelash.

Wow. I'm 15 and honestly I don't relate to any of these teenage girls. I ont have any problems like them. I'm not rich at all . I'm not spoiled at ALL. I don't believe in peer pressure. I mean watchin your teen shows frustrate me so bad because I can't relate! I'm definitley not a nerdy quite girl either. I'm very loud as a matter of fact and I don't cry over the silly things girls cry in thier "pressured" eenage life. I wanna see somethin different. A strong minded teenage female that shows teenage life is not hard at all really. please i love your show ,but i wanna see the above happen.
