Annie Fox for Teens... Hey, Terra!

Hi there… How’s it going? Probably not all that great or you wouldn’t be here looking for help. No worries. Teens have been emailing me since 1997 because I give good advice. If you’ve got a problem with friends, so-called friends, a bf/gf, a parent, or anything else… email me. I can help you sort out your feelings. No matter what’s going on, you always have choices. And choices matter because sometimes the stuff we do to “fix” a problem only makes things worse. You don’t want to go there. Instead, let me help you figure out your next best move

In friendship,
Terra (aka Annie Fox)

“None of my friends are supportive and I'm depressed.”

Hey Terra,

Love has become an enemy of mine. I fell in love with a boy senior year of high school. We got along and it seemed like everything was ok but throughout high school I would find out about girls here and there that he "hung" out with and some that he even kissed and hooked up with. Never from his mouth did I hear these things but I continued to forgive and date him because I loved him.

We dated for the rest of high school and our first year of college. We attended different colleges miles apart and our relationship was rocky. I never knew what he was doing miles apart or who he was with, it...

 

Hey Terra,

I have been depressed for a total of 6 weeks now. My sister says horrible things that hurt me like: "You're going on to middle school and still sleep in my room, oh my god, I wish you would go to hell, I hate you. You're hopeless because you can't even open a gym locker." Those things hurt and they're true. I've also been depressed because I have no friends that would come to my house. I don't do the things I love. and lay around the house a lot. None of my parents, friends, sisters are supportive. Please help me!!!!!!!!!!

Depressed
