It's no secret that being a teenager is difficult. For seven years, far too many of us continually worry about our appearance, what other people think of us, and how we wish we could live the life of someone else. Meanwhile, it seems like the world around us is suddenly changing at high speeds, from our bodies, to our friends, to our relationships with our parents.
