Okay, Jeff, I see you're going through a thing. I know about things better than most people cause I've been through lots of things, and I have some wisdom to share with you. Please just listen to this, it will most definitely help you go through whatever it is you're going through.
Okay, so, back in the day (about a zillion years ago) middle school was tough. I had a lot of friends, but then the 'awkward stage' hit and my entire life was bombarded with craziness that made no sense and really just sucked. Basically, you're going through that same kind of phase in life -not trying to be Mr. Psychologist- and you'll eventually get through it. Everyone goes through this; some people just get it tougher than others (I was one of those people), and it's only because you're going through a stage of maturing and so is everyone else in your school, and with all of the hormones and conflicting emotions and whatnot... it gets pretty hectic. Anyways, I got through this stage after a while, and by the end of middle school everyone mellowed out and the world was back to normal. Now, you must remember that getting through this part of your life will be difficult in some places, but it can be easily accomplished by simply staying in your place, listening to the right things and people, and not letting anybody make you angry or possess you emotionally. Anger is the absolute worst thing you can ever have in your life because it only leads to mental destruction. You become angry, and your choices are poorly made because your negative emotions destroy your sense of reason and rationality. When you make poor choices, your life and the relationships with people around you (and yourself) suffer, and that's when things get bad. I know a guy who was always angry, and right now he's just a guy who rages over Call of Duty occasionally and makes terrible decisions.
That said (and I'm sorry if it's a lot to take in), you will be fine and you just have to remember that Minecraft is a game. Minerealm is a very good community *shoutout to my mons*, but it`s not what you should be focussing on in life. If your playing here is distracting you or preventing you from repairing your life, then you should think a bit about how important playing on here really is. Telling everyone you ever met on a Minecraft server about how much you miss the `good times`, and about how your life is in a wreck... and about how you take down kids seven feet tall... and about how you can`t hold up being a player... and about how people drew first blood... and -know what, you get the idea. Basically, all the things you are saying on here are pretty meaningless. It`s Minecraft. It`s a game. Today I guy told me about how his son got hung. Yeah, some people`s lives are really messed up, and this is Minecraft. Games are only good when they are still games... not when they take over your life.
Anyhow, I`ve rambled on long enough. Please remember Jeff, that I`m not harassing you or criticising you, I`m trying to help you out a bit (sorry for making you read that huge wall of text, btw). So, good luck in life. You`ll be fine. Best of luck bud :)
*edit* Also, stay away from people who bother you. Never use all caps. And wear grey. Lots of grey.
