How to Face Society When You're a 

Girl in a Difficult Situation




 

To be honest, I'm not sure that I am the right person to ask this question, but I'll do my best to answer it the best way I can. The first thing you have to remember is that your situation isn't the only difficult situation facing other girls in society; everyone has their own problems and challenges that they are dealing with on a daily basis. 

It's easy to focus on your own challenges because you're going through them and it's hard to see outside of what you're going through, but in reality, everyone else has challenges of their own.

  • Talk to your parents or guardians

I'm still not sure what I should do. I need advice. I havebeen thinking about this for days and I can't seem to make up my mind. What should I do? Is there something you want to talk about? It will be okay, we'll find a way together. I just wish I knew what the right thing is to do or how people will react if they find out about this.


  • Talk to a trusted adult

 

It's important to talk to someone you trust about your difficult situation. It will help you feel less alone and can help you figure out the best way forward. A trusted adult could be a teacher, coach, parent, counselor or relative. They want to hear what happened and how it made you feel and what you need from them. Make sure they know how much their support means for you!


  • Join a support group

Joining a support group is an excellent way to start the healing process and regain confidence. In this setting, you will be around people who have been through something similar and are more than happy to share their experiences with you. 

Talking about your situation with these people will help you feel that you are not alone and that others have been through what you are going through now. Not only will this give you comfort, but it will also help guide your decisions as they may have experienced things that work or don't work for them.

 The idea of joining a group can seem scary at first because it takes courage to talk about something so personal, but know that most people in the group want nothing more than for other women to heal from their traumatic experience.


  • Seek professional help

Seeking professional help can be scary, but it's an important step that will empower you to face society when you need it most. If you are struggling with anxiety, depression or other mental health issues, see your doctor. If this is the result of an abusive relationship or domestic violence, find the resources available for support. If you have been sexually assaulted and are looking for resources or support please contact RAINN (Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network) at 1-800-656-HOPE (4673).


  •  Take care of yourself

It's important to take care of yourself when you are dealing with difficult times. That means you need to make sure that your physical, mental, and emotional needs are met. Here are some ways you can do this:

-get plenty of sleep so that you can be rested for the day ahead -take time for yourself -spend time with friends who make you feel good -eat healthy foods and stay hydrated -exercise, even if it's just walking around the block

You should also consider seeking professional help if things get really tough. For example, there might be a therapist or other mental health professional in your area who specializes in helping people deal with trauma or depression.
