I don't even know if I have PCOS or AN because she won't take me to the doctor! Like some of my friends call me bear, and I know they're joking, but it really hurts! I haven't even really had a boy remotely interested in me! And if I keep looking the way I do a boy prbably never will. It's bad when you have to be friends with yourself.

Sweetie, I'm so sorry you're feeling this way. I've often wondered what it's like for y'all to be a teenager in such a body-conscious time, and I was 14 only 11 years ago!
Don't worry about what the boys think. Most boys your age aren't worth the time right now. They have other things on their minds. And one day you WILL find somebody, someone right for you. For now, try and concentrate on yourself. These years are so important for you to get to know yourself. Forget about the bullsh*t magazine images and what others say. High school will be tough at first, but you'll find new people, new situations and new interests to take your mind away from what the negative people think. Trust me, with a little confidence, you'll have a GREAT time.
