how can I change for the new school year?
I have no problem with school but there are some problems. My mom trys to have me dress like her. My mom makes me buy tshirts and gym shorts or plain jeans. I wish she would let me dress the way I want to dress. Its not like I am going to wear skimpy outfits. I love layers but I only have 2 shirts that I can layer. My mom keeps telling me I have school clothing and I don't need anymore but they are all stained, ripped, or to small. The good clothing I do have are the free ones that the i get from my sports. My family has a little bit of money so I don't understand why I can get 2-3 pairs of jeans and a couple nice shirts. I am allowed to wear makeup but i don't very often because I breakout. How can I convince my mom that I should be able to get some nice shirts. My mom and sister get to go out and get there nails done when I am left at home. My nails are ok but it would be nice to have nice nails. My parents treat me like a tomboy and I am not. I like pink and dressing up from time to time. My peers think I am retarded because I am in special education because I have adhd. The teachers give me the special treatment by giving me notes in class and wordbanks everyonce in a while. Its noticable when they do it and I think my classmates know. I have been called reatarded and handicapped way to many times and it needs to stop! I am very shy and I dont like talking to people and when I do its akward so that probably contributes to people thinking I am retarded. I am very unpopualr and I onl y have 4 friends who go to my school. Sometimes I embarrass myself because I day dream in school and my teachers will say something and the class laughs. I don't need to be in resource room if my parents would let me take adderal but they don't want me drugged up. I am sick and tired of being the unfashionable ugley, retard at school and I want it to stop. Do you have any other ideas how i can change? Any good ways to get rid of acne because nothing works for me. Whats in style this year. I am a 16 year old with native american, german, and french blood. I am tan and I have brown eyes, dull hair, and a really ugley pointed nose. Thanks
my hair is a light dull brown and its thing and by the end of the day it looks like I didnt brush it.

You need to show this question to your mom. I feel so bad for you. You are being so hard on yourself. Talk to your mom and show her some pictures in magazines or catalogues that have the kind of clothes you want. Find out if there are and chores you can do to help pay for the clothes. You are not retarded. You have adhd and that is not your fault. It would be best if your parents could get you the medication you need. It would help with your concentration. Acne is a problem most teens have to deal with. Keep your face clean, and if over-the-counter medications don’t help, the doctor can prescribe something that will help. A little oil-free concealer will help hide the acne. You can get hair gloss to help make your hair shiny. Be sure to keep it clean. Finally, try to be nice to everyone, and if people tease you, don’t let them know it bothers you. I have a friend in special ed, and if people call him retarded he always laughs and says "I’m not retarded, I’m special". Try it, it works.
