If you’re feeling like this, we’re really glad you asked for support. Feeling like you want to end your life can happen when someone is carrying a lot of pain, stress, loneliness, or big feelings for a long time. Things can get better and there are lots of people who can help you with this.
You deserve support and care, and you shouldn’t have to deal with those feelings on your own. Talking to someone you trust — like a parent, carer, teacher, school counsellor, youth worker, or doctor — can be a really important first step.
You can also contact Kids Helpline (1800 55 1800) or Lifeline (13 11 14) anytime to talk to a trained counsellor. They are there to listen and help you through tough moments. Your life matters, and there are people who want to support you.

We’re definitely entering the weird era of technology where this question actually makes sense.
But here’s the thing: a robot can be programmed to act like it cares about you, but it can’t actually feel emotions, give consent, disagree with you, grow with you, or support you when life gets messy.
Real relationships involve two people with thoughts, feelings, boundaries, and opinions. That’s the whole point.
A robot might give you attention. But a real person gives you connection — and that’s a very different thing.
Yes. People express gender in heaps of different ways. Some boys are sporty and traditionally “masculine”, some are soft, creative, stylish, or more feminine — and a lot of people are a mix of everything.
Being a “femboy” is just one way someone might express themselves. And liking someone who presents that way is completely fine too.
It can feel important — mostly because everyone around you is talking about crushes, situationships, “talking stages”, and who likes who.
But honestly? A lot of relationships under 15 are more about experimenting with feelings than building serious partnerships. People are figuring out attraction, friendship, boundaries, jealousy, and communication for the first time. Sometimes it’s cute. Sometimes it’s messy. Sometimes it lasts two weeks and ends because someone left someone on delivered.
You’re not behind if you’re not dating. Your life aura is not determined by whether you have a partner at 14 – I promise.
