I feel like I’m wasting my teenage years/life

I’m 13 years and feel like I’m wasting all my teen years. This summer break lately my days have been filled with just watching tv, and scrolling my phone most of the time. I watched many of those “6 hard truths” videos and they have made me more worried and depressed about my life then anything, I tried to change my schedule around by getting up and making breakfast before anything and doing a little journaling. But I still feel like I should be doing things that are more productive. The saying “How you spend your days is how your gonna spend your life” (I’m not sure if that’s how that goes) has made me very anxious and worry so much that sometimes I can’t sleep. I really need some ways to change my life around, plead any help would be appreciated! And I will answer any questions that come about.

How do I look more like a girl?

For context, yes I am a biological female. I have been mistaken for a boy all throughout my life, I have been kicked out of restrooms and frequently called “He”. People think I’m trans and I’m not I just look like a copy paste of my dad. Please help, I have been feeling really down about it lately.

I have to choose to live my mom or my dad, what do I do?

Hello Reddit, recently my father got a job down in Texas and is also moving there. We originally lived it Canada and my moms not moving any closer to him because there separated. I really have no idea what to do, I wanna stay in Canada because it’s all I have ever known, but also my mom and I don’t really do anything. Don’t get me wrong I really love my mom but I have bigger aspirations then sitting on the couch everyday watching tv and occasionally going out to eat and what not. The only sports I can do at her house are schools sports and even then she never comes to any of my games. All my extra circulars have been supported by my dad and I do A-LOT. My mom also wants me to stay becasue I have a support system or something and also because I’ll loose my relationship with jehovah, and that my dad will keep me from her. Now that’s the short explanation for my mom.

Now my dad on the other hand, is kinda unpredictable? Like one day I’ll have to be stepping on eggshells and some days were havi a good ol time. And if I do one little thing the whole day is ruined and his mood changes. Over the last few years I have been like an emotional regulator for my dad? Like after telling him repeatedly that (long story short) I don’t like him acting like that, he has turned it down a bit. He says he isn’t trying to pressure me to come with him but he does share why he wants me too, because it would be a new start and I’d be able to play more sports and have more opportunities, and the most important part that he likes to repeat. I would be able to see my mom a lot more with him then I would be able to see him with my mom if that makes sense. My mom sees my dad as a narcissist I haven’t really looked into it so I don’t know.

Now what I think? I think I wanna live with my dad for the opportunities but also my mom so that she ain’t sad and I don’t have to worry about her. She says I’ll forget about jehovah and so as keep saying I won’t but she says I will. All her friends keep saying that it’s mt choice and I’ll suffer the consequences. And I’ll have to say who I wanna live with as goes the court order.
I really appreciate ANY advice THANK YOU for reading this whole thing if you did. And I Willa sneer any questions you have.

Summary: My moms house is kinda boring and unfulfilling in my creative desires and also she’s a jehovah witness and doesn’t want me to forget about god

My dads temperament is a seesaw but if I move with him there will be more space for me to grow

I think this situation is stupid but so feel pressured from both sides and don’t know what I wanna do

And my mom thinks my dad is a narcissist.

Is 8.05 good for somebody new to shot put?

Hello! I am very new to shot-put only starting about a week ago. In my school when you reach intermediate grades (7, 8) you get to do shot put (Im in seventh grade). We practiced with softballs and a shot put for about three days before the event. Our school coach taught the glide technique with a spin at the end, I won first place with a 6 metre throw and then a 7 meters throw and I had never touched a shot-put ever in my life other then this year. I just came back from regionals where I won again with a 7’37, 7’87, 8’05. I was beyond surprised. On my last throw I did a spin naturally because of my momentum. But anyway is this good or am I just using my raw power? I am 5’8 and 155 pounds. Also I leave a lot of space in my glide and I don’t know how to stop that without doing a big hop. Any response is appreciated and I will edit this post need to! Thank you and have a good day.

I hate the drop feeling. Gonna ride steel vengeance

Hello! Im getting the Chance to go to cedar point this weekend for the first time eve. Im really excited but extremely scared. I originally planned on just sitting down and watching my dad get on them while admiring the rollercoasters, but I have decided to get on just on, being steel vengeanc. To me it dose not look to bad, and fairly mild. I have been on behemoth which Is 230 feet. But even so I still think Steve’s drop will be extremely intense. I fine with the rest of the ride but the drop is what deters me from every rollercoaster (Which is why im never getting on TT2 unless it’s really that good.) so if there’s any tips on how to combat the feeling, or what rows to sit in to make the feeling like non-existent that would be very good. Thank you and have a wonderful day! ( Btw I have been on alpinefury and velocicoaster if that helps)

Edit:I don’t know why I said the drop looked mild, I meant it didn’t look as high or extreme as the other rollercoaster in the park like TT2 THATS all!

(13F) So, my dad told me that this year I’ll be able to play hockey. I have been asking for years now, and my dad has finally saved enough to get me into it! My only goal is to have lots of fun, and get good. I have family friends that played minor league as well, they went absolutely nuts when they found out I was gonna play. But anyway now for my question, what should I be focusing on? I’ll probably ask to be out in some sort of hockey summer camp, but for what? Skating, checking, moving the puck. Any other tips would as well be very helpful. Im 5’8 155lbs. Thank you and I hope you have the best day ever!!!!!!!

So, I love behemoth it’s one of my favourite rollercoasters ever. But before it took me forever to get over the stomach dropping feeling, and find a way to handle it. Now I still feel it, and I kinda enjoy it, but when au sit in the back it’s still a lot for me. Now onto leviathan, I have always wanted to try it, it would be my first giga, and it looks incredibly fun and fast, especially when I look at it at night, it looks unreal. But I feel like the stomach ripping feeling would be too much for me, I used to feel like ao would die on behemoth. Is leviathan really any different? should I just suck it up and get I line? Thank you for any comments, and have a wonderful day!
