Hey

[seabutterfly 117]

Hey, I found this site a while ago and just recently had the courage to sign up. I'm 16, and a recently confirmed Catholic (under the name Dymphna).

A few months ago I was diagnosed with depression and anxiety, and one of the things that kept coming up in my thoughts was that I was waiting til till marriage, and felt alone. Finding the forums helped me out of a lot of these toxic thoughts. I had this fear that everyone who was waiting would be boring. But these forums made me realize that that's stupid, there's so many diverse and complex people here. So thanks, and I'm excited to talk!

Hi seabutterfly.  Welcome to the forum!

I'm relieved there are still teenagers such as yourself committed to waiting.

Hi Seabutterfly, you are on a right track, and congs for taking this brave decision to wait given the forces and loud otherwise voices in your generation.

God is faithful and has already put out His righteous right hand which is also victorious to pick you up from any pitfall.

It's very easy to feel alone when mass media promotes the idea that religion and the accompanying morals are outdated. That's their intent. I'm sure most, including myself, have felt that way at some point in time. There's an incredible pressure to conform to beliefs and ideals that are entirely based on the whims of the consumer culture and it's pretty scary.

Anyway, welcome to the forum!
