reader, anonymous, writes (18 July 2009): Cigarettes or alcohol or any other mind-altering substance is not good for you and neither will they make you feel any better in the long run. You'll get hooked and won't be able to function with their 'help', so do yourself a big favour and stop stealing and smoking. There will come a time when you'll start stealing to pay for them because you'll be addicted, unable to face the first ten minutes of every day, and every half-hour thereafter until you go to sleep, without a cigarette.
Let your mother know how you feel instead of putting on a false happy face when you're in front of her. Your mother should have your best interests at heart and hopefully reassure you that things aren't as bad as they seem and get you feeling better about life in general. Mothers are there for that sort of thing you know!

Hi there
You are so young and fragile and having people walk out on you is clearly affecting you badly. Who are these people?
Smoking is not the answer though. It is bad for your health as I'm sure you are aware. You need to address specifcally the things troubling you and then talk to someone. Are you able to discuss your problems with your mother? If she is not aware if your struggles she is unable to help you. If you don't feel comfortable talking to family or friends perhaps your GP could help.
As you have been vague with your issues it is difficult for me to give any indepth advice. However if you feel able to open up a little more, I'd be happy to comment further.
Kindest regards
Kym x
