Re: thinking of remembering of child sexua| abuse

I dont believe you need a hotline. I believe you need to talk to your parents or a school counselor. Many young people think something is wrong with them and start searching for self diagnosis.

But in my opinion, what you are going through is 100% natural! Puberty can cause a lot of strange and new feelings and emotions. You need to realize that you are not alone, you are not the only one. Feelings and actions dont fix themselves though, so if you feel you have lost confidance and you dont like that about yourself, change it. Get involved with sports, theater, martial arts...something to give yourself a sense of belonging and productiveness. Only you have the power to improve yourself.

I dont think it is "weed" as another member posted. You may do it, but I dont think it explains everything you have posted. I personally feel you are younger than you say you are. And there is nothing wrong with that, but it does mean that you are neck deep in raging hormones that can cause an abundance of very strong emotions.

So please, talk to a relative you trust (perhaps a "cool" uncle or aunt) or consider speaking to a teacher you trust. No matter what, pick a trusted adult and talk with them. All of us have been through the early pre-teen and teenage years. Its not fun, but it does get better. Tweet
