Do you think my life will pick up?

The only advice I can give you is to keep your head up. No matter what stage of life you're in, problems will always surround you. It's how you choose to let it affect you and how you handle it that matters. Just be there for your family, do what you can to help out. But, at the same time, remember that you only get to be a kid once, so live it up and have fun the best you can. Hang in there baby, life's a bumpy road but its all worth it. Be careful and take care of yourself.
