Dear Queenie,
I’m in high school and I know this should be a happy time for me but I get upset over little things and this makes it hard for me to get along with other people and keeps me from feeling really good about myself.
I know you will tell me to see a professional counsellor like you always tell people, but when I tried to tell my parents about it they refused to even discuss it.
Queenie, how can I get some help?—Unhappy teenager
Dear Teenager,
Talk to a school counsellor about this, or tell your family physician about it the next time you go for a check-up. I hope one of them can persuade your parents to let you get the help you need.
