can you give me some tips? I don’t want lessons

Hey. I want to do Music as a GCSE, and I shall hopefully be taking guitar lessons.. But I think I will have to sing, and people say I have a good voice- I CANT sing high or low, im in the middle. Any good songs that I could try out for practice?

lately i’ve been feeling loads of different things. weakness, tiredness, laziness, emptiness, sadness and just generally depressed. i started the third year of high school 3 weeks ago(year 9, don’t know what they call it in america :l ) and i hate everything about it. i hate my teachers, the people in my classes, etc. even though i’m good at basically everything (i am expected to get a*’s in my science GCSE’s, i’m in the top ICT class and second top maths class, and i’m gifted and talented in english which is my best subject.) i feel as though i am not achieving anything and i am nearly falling asleep in lessons because i get no sleep.
i can’t seem to get to sleep easily, i have to lie in bed for ages, tossing and turning, throwing my cover off me then pulling it back on, thinking about everything it just can’t make me sleep.
my parents split up earlier this year and i still haven’t got over it. my dads got a flat ages away, and when i went there once i fell asleep in the car. then when we parked up at his i woke up but kept my eyes closed. my dad got out of the car thinking i was still asleep and started talking to his neighbor when i found out he has a girlfriend. my mum knew this but only told me after this had happened. i haven’t met her and i don’t want to, my dad also got angry at my brother and hit him, so now my brother is completely ignoring him which doesn’t help anything. generally crap like that happens everyday at home.

also, my friends are really starting to bug me loads. i started listening to different music because the music that’s popular nowadays is really annoying and edited. i listen to bands like panic at the disco, fall out boy, paramore, hey monday. the cab, the maine, enter shikari, passion pit, all time low etc. they keep taking the piss saying that i’m going “all emo” because they think its the type of music that screams down your ears and stuff. i also start buying kerrang magazine, and i had it in my school bag and when i opened my bag one day, one of them went ooh can i read your magazine, and then they were laughing at it because they had never heard of the bands and they were questioning why on earth i had bought it. i blankly told them because i wanted to, but they can’t stop taking the mick. in the car on the way to school my friend was changing the radio over and “rock fm” came on and they both started laughing.

one of my friends (lets call her A) is generally a bitch sometimes and the other one (lets call her B) just follows her, whatever she does.
for example i made cakes today in cooking and i put lots of cinnamon in it because i like cinnamon, and i gave A a piece and she started making throwing up noises.
B then decided to have some in the next lesson and copied A completely, pretending to throw up and saying that it was horrible. this really pissed me off and they always do it.
A has been doing dancing all her life. B decides to start dancing lessons with A to “lose weight” i’m not stupid.
and their faces when i announced i was getting bass guitar lessons was FXCKING PISSING ME OFF. sorry. and i’ve been friends with them for 10 years and i can’t just dump them. our mums are really good friends and stuff like that. but urgh.

i turned 14 last week and it all just feels crap. i feel ill, i have stomach aches and headaches, i’m getting loads of spots, i get paranoid about everything too. whenever i see ambulances or police cars or fire engines i panic. i haven’t been doing homework, i’ve been refusing p.e lessons, being close to tears in nearly every lesson.
my self esteem is dropping rapidly, and i’m pretending this isn’t happening so nobody asks me whats up. i have never been one to let my emotions out a lot but i have never felt this bad and i am just bottling it all up and don’t know what to do.

sorry if this all sounds messed up i’m just so upset and angry with myself. thanks.

I was thinking on getting some guitar lessons but then i though teaching myself would make me a better player overall. Are there any good sites to help you learn how to play guitar that are FREE??? IM talking about GOOD sites that have a step by step starting from just the VERY basics… THANKS! PLEASE ONLY SERIOUS ANSWERS!
