Do I need to stop complaining?
I complain all the time. My mom says I'm being negative and it's stressing her out. It also stresses my father out. I know how annoying I'm being, but I just feel like all the weight of the world (or at least the USA) falls upon me. Such as the gay marriage debate. Luckily, it's legal in Maine, but not in all of the states. I feel like I can't die happy unless all of the states have it legal. I feel like everyone should be equal and it's up to me to make sure of that. I don't know who to talk to - it stresses my parents out, my sister just agrees with everything I say (or she tells me to shut up), I get too riled up and disrespectful on Qfeast, and no one reads my diary. I want to make my voice heard. If anyone is willing to debate (and isn't extra sensitive), please tell me, because I want someone to yell at XD
Just kidding, I won't yell at you. I would just debate and try to be respectful. If I am ever disrespectful, please let me know. Say, "That was kind of offensive/mean." or something, please. Whenever I get angry, I start letting loose all of my bullets and I can't see who I'm hitting until I'm calm again, and then I'm like, "Whoa, did I really say that?" So if you are really sensitive or cry at the drop of a hat, I suggest you don't debate with me. :)

"I complain all the time."
Don't.
"I know how annoying I'm being, but I just feel like all the weight of the world (or at least the USA) falls upon me."
... I'm sorry, but that's really arrogant...
I like a good debate too, but something to have in mind is that in every debate, you might be the one wrong, or that there is no wrong or right. You also have to know that sometimes, people will have their own standards and opinions, and you shouldn't impose on them. Debating isn't See More▼ about showing the other person that what you think is right is right and that they're wrong. It's about getting to learn different perspectives people might have in their lives, precious knowledge.

I have depression, Sharon. Sorry for being "arrogant."
Oh. Then, feel lucky you're not surrounded by the depressed. All my family talks about is death these days... Good for you!

I know your name isn't Sharon.
And no, "nearly everyone else" does NOT have depression. In fact, less than 6.9% of the U.S. population is diagnosed with depression.
Also, I can't help it that I have depression & feel like a lot of weight falls on my shoulders.

And there it is. Another subject to debate about. "What is a debate?"
Or several others: "What are perspectives?" "What are opinions?" "Is there a right or wrong way to think?" "How can we avoid imposing our thoughts on another?"
