Hi my name is pippa and i am trying to make some new friends that understand what being a young carer is all about. I go to a school in [town name removed by YCNet team] were i am the only young carer there! Sometimes i feel like no one understands me because i tend to have lots of mood swings and can change from being really happy to really angery and some times suicidal. Thats  were i get my nickname from "emogal94" i get that because i was born in the year of 1994 and that i am an emo cross tomboy and every girl at my school is really girly and i hate girly girls there is nothing worse than being around the so called eniemy!I am really nice though don't let my nickname scare you! I care for my mum and sisters because my mum has a back problem and one of my sisters has mental heath problems and the other has deppression but they don't live at home but still need alot of support! I would like some support cos i just moved to this new school and there is no one that i trust enough to talk to cos at my old school i trusted someone with a seacret and the next day it was spreed round the school and it was not a plesent thing to happen, so ever since then ihave never trusted anyone in the school circle in fear of what might happen. I have also been through alot of bulling and sometimes i find my self out side the deputy heads office in trouble cos pf something i have said or done, i am on my last warning before i have to leave! I have not made any friends here cos they think i will get them in troble  if they do, sometimes i feel i don't have a soul in the world to turn to so i find myself in the chapel, computer room, music room, art room or outside on the benches by myself. I am always saying how thing could not get any worse when all of a sudden i find myself in trouble at home as well as at school and sometimes i feel my only escape is this web address cos i feel i can trust everyone in this group cos they all understand how i must be feeling! I also understand how other people feel when they are newcomers to the group because i was one once and i know how they must feel not knowing anyone.

hoping to become anyones mate

love from

pippa
