     Do you ever feel like your growing up way to quickly?

In my case I do, all the time. I'm Thirteen and I have the height and body of a women. As of this people do not look at me as a Thirteen-year old but instead as a teen or adult.

They treat me as if I am one, so when I do something that would be perceived as normal for my age it comes off rather weird. People point things out like, when I play outside, play with toys, or don't dress a certain way. I feel forced to act way older than I am.

When I go to family reunions I rather hang out with my younger cousins then my older ones. I find what they do way more interesting then talking about what they talk about.

I feel as if I was forced to live to be older. When I was around the age of 9-10 I was watching my younger siblings constantly and still sometimes do today. I was forced to live in this horrid body.

And not to mention I was exposed to Internet at a young age. Meaning I've experienced some "things" that will be spoken in a different chapter.

I don't think I meet standards for anyone, I see myself as a burden to anyone.

When I speak to my mother about my feelings about this topic, she doesn't seem interested in helping me or getting me help. I spoke to her today about it and she told me "you have fun" or "all teenagers go through this" if they do I hope they have Perfessional help.

Why should I have to deal with this? I understand my mom doesn't want to believe anything is wrong with me, but when it comes to her feelings I understand and completely try to help her.

It's as if her feelings only matter?

I wouldn't know because...I do not know what goes on in her head.

But I wish I did because I'm trying the best I can to reach out to her.

Has everyone ever heard the famous words that comes from parents "whenever I try to reach out you ignore me." Because I feel as if that's backwards.


Rember, this is a safe place for others to relate to me and others. For other's to express feelings without being judged by others. If you want to vent you can vent in the comments. I hope everyone feels better soon.<3
