"i hated being seventeen and i have a feeling eighteen is going to be just bad due to having more responsibilities. maybe i'm just being too pessimistic"
How I did it: i just patiently waited. i was a senior in high school for most of age 17, and I was extremely stressed out. endured lots of hardships (thank god high school is done with) and here i am! alive and well.... sort of.
Lessons & tips: be optimistic, have a good attitude because i spent most of the past year lamenting on my weaknesses. wasted too much being upset. wasted a lot of opportunities, spending time with friends before graduating, etc.. i advise young people not to do this.
Resources: reading books was my escape. and unlike friends, books are always around so i could count on them to hold on to my sanity :P
