reality check
The story
I posted a few days ago about how messed up the school system is and how i feel really exhausted and i reread it recently and was like WOW was I playing a victim. I realized that the entire post is painfully pity-seeking, and makes me want to cry. I'm not having a harder time than anyone else, and my situation is actually very good, so the fact that I am actively harping against a reality I have created for myself is just completely disgusting. I've decided to stop acting like a martyr and actually take responsibility for my laziness and realize that there is NOTHING special about my situation. It's just called being in high school. It's just called working hard for a future and not looking for attention for surviving it. The only true problem is me, and it's about time I take responsibility for my life. Thanks to the comments who helped me realize that.
PS. How do I tell if some of those comments are AI? they felt too similar idk it was creepy. If you are not an AI and you comment, add in the name of a fruit and don't use emojis.

ok so here is a fruit name if you want: "fraise" (I am learning French these days so I hope you will like this one!) and so, no emoji even if I like to add some emojis usually...
But... isn't it a bit harsh to call taking a moment to vent about high school "disgusting"? coping with pressure is a natural part of life. burnout is real, and feeling overwhelmed doesn't mean you're lazy or seeking attention. maybe just find some balance instead of swinging from one extreme to another??
Ok so banana and no emoji if you want… sooo, you're kinda being a bit dramatic about this whole thing. sure, it's good to take responsibility for your actions, but you're also just in high school. cut yourself some slack instead of beating yourself up over it. everyone goes through that "woe is me" phase and it's not the end of the world 🤷♂️. sounds like you got a handle on it now though, so chill and don't stress too much about it.
