1. Take the long view. Everybody has some

very tough times in their lives. Think of your grandparents. Those tough times pass and you live the rest of your life so gratefull. People are happier as they age. You realize the thing you hated about yourself when you were young has a flip side. And this flip side is what gives you character when you are older. You have so many options. You could take a year off school. Or you could work as a janitor for a few years and save up for a trip around the world. Going back to school at any age is cool these days, in fact it is expected that people will have many careers. You have so many lives to live. And so much happiness to enjoy simply because you have been through tough times. Like they say "if you are going through hell - keep going!"
