I hate everything right now... I can't think of anything good.. I try to think of good/happy memories but only the sad ones come to mind... after 3-5 secs of happy/good ones
I want my sister boyfriend to move OUT I don't even see WHY my parents said he could move in My sister is bipolar, she was doing good on her meds but idk what happen, anyways she's not taking them, when she took them she dated nice clean cut members now she got a boyfriend who's a non member who smokes, cuss and chew.
My mom wants me to be prefect.. cuz sister and the boyfriend thing. older bro trying to find a job and doesn't want to go on mission and got angry problems. younger bro going to HS this year (not homeschooling) two sisters who don't really get along. the older one 12 does dance and sometimes goes without eating anything so after 3 hours of the class and coming home she's a brat doesn't want to eat anything we have, only chips and junkfood cuz her body is soo hungry.
Sunday school, I'm the person who holds the door open for the people to go out.. I just wanted out, I didn't want to be in that class.. I wanted OUT. I felt like I was going to thought up 2 times today, I had cried/ had watery eyes about 4 times today
I just want to go in the back of the woods in a clearing my little sibs found and just want to stay there, idk how long just want to get away, be away so no one will find me
I don't even really say my prayers anymore... I always said the same things over n over again, I'm not good with prayers, I didn't see anything good coming from it.. or bad so.
I just want everything to be... good.

I know exactly how you feel. Life is miserable for me too right now, for a lot of reasons. I really hate it. Life sucks.
But regardless of that, you need to start praying. Trust me, that's one of the two (maybe three) things that has at some point helped me with anything. I said such a long, earnest prayer last night and for that moment my prayer was answered because I felt peace, and at that peaceful moment Heavenly Father popped a scripture in my head that has everything to do with what I'm going through right now. Psalms 31. You should read it. It's amazing, especially verse 24.
Pray. Read your scriptures. You have to realize that just because everything sucks and you want to sit back and let it fix itself (I want to do that too) that that won't happen. You need to work hard to get the blessings you want/need. Heavenly Father blesses us after we've done all we can do. Think about everything you're doing - is it all you can do? Honestly? I know that I have a lot I need to work on. Just make it a goal everyday to try and receive the blessings from praying earnestly and sincerely, meaning not saying the same things over and over again and expecting results. Praying is like a phone call to an all loving Father. If you say the same things over again... how is that even a conversation? You need to be open to answers as you're praying, and right after. Don't say your prayers and then immediately go on the computer, or listen to rock music or something. Sit there and ponder answers in your heart. That's what I did last night, and it helped me, even if just for that moment. Then as you do that, add scripture study. Then maybe reading the New Era and such, and continue to add to it. You'll see the blessings unfold in your life, but only after you've done all you can do.
I'm sorry you're going through a rough time right now. I know how it is. But you can't give up. You need to work for what you want. An employer wouldn't just hand you a $2,000 paycheck, would he? No, you'd have to work for it. Blessings are kind of the same thing. You work for it and you'll receive an outpouring of blessings. But don't think that it'll come instantly. It hasn't for me and I've been praying and reading scriptures and listening to MoTab and such for the past 2-3 months straight and I'm still struggling, and it's getting worse. But that's because I'm slacking. I need to work on things.
Just keep trying. Things will get better. Even if they get worse beforehand. But even after they get better, things will end up bad again, but that's only because we have trials to prove our faith. If you aren't praying you aren't proving your faith, and that's part of what Heavenly Father needs to see from you right now - that even in these trials, even while you're hating everything about life, you will still lean on and trust in Him.
I hope I may have somewhat helped.

I almost don't want to comment after Jayda's post because that's perfectly said, but I just want to reiterate it. Heavenly Father knows and he has the secrets that can make everything become good like you want. Nobody and nothing else has that kind of knowledge.
Start with picking back up on your prayers. Make them personal, there's no script to a prayer. When I pray I am very specific about what is happening to me personally and to those I'm close to around me. And I think that because I pray and I plead for very specific things I get very specific blessings and I can see those happen all the time.
So be personal in your prayers. Tell everything that you wrote here and other things you may have decided not to post to your Father who knows how to make those situations better. I can tell you that I know without a doubt that He listens but you need to find that out for yourself. And things will change.

Thanks guys.. Jayda you helped a lot... but what is MoTab? annd, my Bishop had my parents in yesterday, talking to them and he told them that people are talking about us *my family* I don't want people talking about us.. the Elders been teaching my sis boyfriend and he tells them a lot of stuff (that we don't really know about) The Elders don't like him around here *in house* all the time.. they said there's 3 young men in that house etc. anyways I think they talked to Bishop about it. We're having car trouble too.... idk when it will be fix.. will cost a lot of money and the Bishop been paying $500 for us in bills n stuff.. *from the fast offerings* I heard a story about a guy on his mission and his patenter was in his room talking, the guy said he sounded like he was talking to a close friend of his... when he went in the room he said the person praying. Anyways I will try to pray again... haven't read striptrues since efy 2009

I'm so glad I helped a lot! MoTab = The Mormon Tabernacle Choir They're fantastic when you're down. Sunshine In My Soul is one of my favorites that they do. I hope that things get better for you! Yes, definitely pray again. Read your scriptures, too. Scriptures have often given me answers to prayers, and when I least expected it. Think about it this way - what if Joseph hadn't been reading the scriptures at the moment he read that verse in James that inspired him to go pray in the Grove? We may very well not have the true Gospel on this earth. The scriptures can do and inspire marvelous things. All you have to do is be open, study, and have faith!

We had the water back for a week now, it's fix, and we got both cars back fixed too, but need money This post made me happy. ^_^ It's true. JT is great at those things. Something I've found amazing is that whenever I come onto these kinds of threads (You know, the ones that basically start with 'I have problems and need help with spiritual guidence or need to talk about it or something' ones?) I see that Hockeydude and Jayda have posted about a day or two before I even see it. Then, between the two of them, they cover almost everything good/helpful that can be said about the topic. And then if they DO happen to miss anything, Jenni, JT, and Equinox come in to pick it up. XD It's absoloutley fantabulous. *sighs thoughtfully* You guys are all like role models to me.

Mein Gott!.
Well, my sister's boyfriend had a trip to the jail today (His out now)
My sister went in town with him today to drop him off at work (At the coffee shop) They got into a car accent, the car is okay.... you can drive it but the front right or left lights are 100% ripped out, need fixing after the car been in the shop for 2-3 days fixing a sound it was making that cost a lot of money which we don't have.
Roger (The boyfriend) he was driving and doesn't even have a driving license, his 21 and never even had a permit. He drove before, when my mom was in the car he didn't liked him driving, says his not that good with it and a bit of a "crazy" driver soo yeah
O and my sister forgot her driving license.. my mom was in a rage about they would take the car (You know, cuz if you don't have a driving license, they take car away) well they didn't took it again, Thank goodness
I listened to my mom saying "darn him anyways" a lot when sister got done telling my mom over the phone with what happened (The call being over with)
I wanted to say the same thing, all this time I didn't wanted him here this will be a fun day, huh?

They say that love is blind, but your sister needs to dump the loser! All he is going to do is bring her down morally and then dump her when he gets bored with her!

0_o What kinda not-so-smart person (I just shivered... insults and me don't get along) drives without a liscence! >_> I understand forgetting your liscence at home or something and you won't be able to get in to see your (Dentist, accountant, doctor, psychologist, etc...) if you take any longer, but what happened there was just irresponsible.
Your family is in my prayers, Michael!
