I can't lie, I did a lot of really, really stupid things, and it was because it was my way of crying for help.

There's always going to be someone prettier, smarter, funnier, better than you - something - but you're you. And no one can take that away from you. Every single person in this world is unique and special and worth something. You can become anything you want to. We just live in a society where they love to kick people when they're down, and they love to put a label on everything.

It's really hard seeing somebody you love be in pain and be ill and there's nothing you can do. What's interesting is people act in so many different ways. You know, some people run away, some people get angry, some people fall apart. It's like everybody has a different way of dealing with stuff like that.

I hate the word gothic but I would like to try doing something like that. A gothic sound, not rock, but gothic. There's a difference.

I go on the Internet and look at old pictures of myself, because it is the best reminder of how far I have come and where I do not want to be.

I still find it tough to be around girls because I always say the wrong thing. If a friend asks me if I look fat in something, I'll be honest and say 'Yeah' when she does.

I guess I have friends around me but when you're paying them can they ever really be true friends?
