Low Self Esteem?
Low self-esteem is associated with many mental health problems. They can feed off each other in a vicious circle; the more depressed or anxious you become the lower your opinion of yourself and your abilities, the more you avoid activities that could help to build-up esteem and address depression or anxiety. Even if you don’t have a mental health diagnosis, you will recognise the impact that your view of yourself has on your mood and nerves.

To have a negative or bad opinion of yourself isnt going to help with your self esteem, and i cant be one to judge i use to dislike my face during my teens as i had a bad spate of acne but everyday i managed to find something to take my mind away from it. i tried creams and a number of different ointments but never really got very far.
Well when I 1st wanted the operation was because I hated my foot, I was so ashamed of it. I avoided wearing anykind of shoe that would expose it. I hated if I was at someone else’s not wearing shoes because you could clearly see it, eventually I did overcome it but I still always had it covered when wearing shoes. I just thought people would call me a freak for having a bunion since I was about 5 so I was bit scared of what people would think but past year it was hurting and they gave me the operation and one more week and maybe I won’t be scared to wear sandals and flip-flops again

Well before my dad died I was a lovely just right weight girl but after he died I turned to food and comfort ate and ate. I use to think I was such a pretty girl and wasn’t shy one bit! But I put weight on and I was ashamed of myself, but never stopped being depressed so I carried on eating and eventually I was a bloody hippo in my likings! The more I looked in the mirror the more I ate because of the depression eventually my mum realised I was getting fat and stopped all junk food and made me walk our dog every day! I lost a bit but not enough. But now I’m at my average weight but I still hate my body. Getting pregnant made it worse and I hate it trying to get the motive to lose weight again but I don’t yea came out shell of not being shy but my muffin tops I hate, I can’t ever hide them no matter what I wear tried losing them but so hard I just think I’ll always be ashamed of my body no matter what any future partners will say, I’ve started wearing tops for sex and in the dark

Where do Teenagers sit in Society
Whether you are in Europe, US, Russia or anywhere in the world. Teens being on the streets are a world wide problem, But why? We need to provide places for teens to go, a place to sleep, somewhere to get something to eat, or someone they can go and talk to and a place for them to just chill-out with each other. You may walk past a teenager in the street with some kind of prejudice but really you don’t know the half of it… maybe that person was kicked out, abused, ran-away from home or just couldnt cope in his home environment… You never know, but why should we stand by and let this go on? its not their fault maybe they have been miss-lead or brought up in the wrong environment, The youth of today will be like us in the future, We may need to give them some positive guidance but with the right help and a push in the right direction anyone and i mean ANYONE can and WILL achieve anything if they put there heart and mind to it.

How Has The Internet Degraded Language Skills?
Over the past 15-20 Years the English Cultural Language has been degraded, Due to the development of instant messaging programs has resulted in the use of a new ‘spin-off English’ and has quickly become the de facto means by which many young people communicate. The most common spinoff would have to be using short forms and it is common to see entire phrases abbreviated. This new language is often referred to as “Internet slang”. Examples include:
” lol = laugh out loud
” ur = you are, your, or you’re
” h2gtw – have to go to the washroom
” cmitm – call me in the morning
” btw = by the way
” b4n = bye for now
” l8er = see you later
The use of Internet slang has undeniably affected grammar, punctuation and spelling. Grammar is the foundation of the English language. Punctuation sets the tone and the overall meaning of a sentence – without tone, meaning can be easily misconstrued. There are often many mixed-messages in chatroom slang and e-mails! So what can be done to keep slang out of formal writing such as research papers and homework? Upon finding slang in homework and test, are deducting are more pints than they would for the usual grammar mistake. This makes the student more mindful of what they are writing and for whom. What do you think about the language of today’s generation?
