I have cried often before and i thought that i may be suffering from depression or that i was bipolar, but when i told my mum she just brushed it off and said it was my hormones. Its my final year of school and i have been really stressed about exams and assesments. To top that off, many of my 'friends' have been horrible and causing drama that i dont need in my life. When im alone and i think about all of it i get so angry that i throw things around, i scratch walls and i pull out my hair. The last time i did that i think about ten hairs came out with it. My aunt and my parents have just mentioned to me that my hair looks very thin, as i used to have thick brown hair. im really worried that its because of my hair pulling that im losing my hairs. i dont know what to do or how to stop it and control my anger. please help.

 Hello dear friend,
I have also 16 year old girl just the same like you. maybe she's more worst. She even fighting back at me which makes me sometimes get crazy too. But im trying to understand her, yes your mom is right" its part of your hormones. remember you are 16, and you are in the stage of puvirty. the situation that your being child and getting teenage is tearing apart. some part in your head wanna get crazy like a rebel. yes its part of your puvirty. your doing just fine and its normal. better kill your pillow hit it pull your anger let your emotion go or go outside take a walk, a little run, excersise a bit, make your self tired, play music, dance move your body that would help you a lot i promise. all of us came on that stage, not only you. most of the time all girls do.. goodluck...

 Hi, yes you sound as if you need a friend, someone to talk to , you sound like you have a lot of frustations about life going on and don't know which way to turn. You could go see a doctor to make sure there's nothing going on that you arent aware of, emotionally, mentally or physically. Then maybe you could try doing something positive to release the energy outbursts you are having. Swimming, running, dancing. I don't think you are on your own with these feelings, a lot of girls your age will be going through something like this especially around menstration time, our hormones really can play havoc with us. Your doctor may be able to help there. But don't continue as you are or you will self destruct. The first thing you have done is identified that something isn't right and thats good. So now go and find some help. Good Luck! hope this helps

 Ok it sounds to me like you have either depression or possibly an anxiety disorder and you need to see a doctor. Regardless of what your parents think, you need to get some help with this. Your showing signs of depression so the earlier you get help with this the faster you will get better.
I was in a similar position to you when I was 15, I was self-harming and thought I needed help. My mum told me I was just going through a "phase" and it would go away. It never did and I continued to self harm until I was 21, until I realised I needed to do something about it. I went alone to see a therapist and a year later I am much better, and I havent self harmed in over 6 months. I wish that when I was younger I went to the doctors instead of listening to my mum, she was completely wrong.
You are the only person who knows how you feel on the inside and if you think you might be depressed then see your doctor ASAP. Dont wait any longer, you shouldnt have to suffer from something that can be cured. The problem with parents is they dont like to admit that their child has a problem, and they also come from a generation that still did not believe in mental illnesses and getting help for a mental illness was still frowned upon. Whereas today we live in a different world where it is ok to have a mental illness and there are a number of ways that they can be cured. Dont suffer in silence, get some help with or without your parents.
I hope you will go and see your doctor as soon as possible, you need to get some help before things get worse.
I hope this helps and good luck!
