school
The story
At this point, I don't know what to do. I just want help, school is really getting to me, and it makes me feel like I'm pathetic or something. My family thinks it's just cause I'm lazy, and don't want to do the work, but I'm really just trying to deal with my mental health at the moment and it feels like it's only getting worse. I really just want help, and don't want to go to school, I end up crying every morning because of it, I don't have friends, and I realized I get distracted in class by how much people are in the room and can't help but feel like everyone talks behind my back, or looking at me. This probably takes place from when I got bullied in elementary school, they all talked behind my back, and I had to sit outside beside the classroom while they were talking about me, right beside me. I thought giving one of them money would make them closer to me but she ended up being the one that started talking behind my back first. I started homeschooling because of it, for a couple years, and moved to a different school. I don't know what to do with me life, I can't help but feel no one gaf about me, and they'll only care if I'm gone. I have lots of trouble making friends, and interacting with people, I have one person who makes me feel seen, and like they care, he's super sweet, he makes me feel like a person, and makes me wanna become a better person. But for now I don't know what to do. It's the same cycle, where I end up in a really depressed sate for a whole week, then feel better, then depressed all over again, I just want help

wow, i totally feel you; school can be a nightmare 😢 it's like the universe has it out for us sometimes!!! i've been in that same boat... my folks thought i was just slacking too, so i get it. dealing with mental health on top of all the school stress is just rough!!! it ain’t easy making friends either, especially when you've had those past experiences with bullies... honestly, it makes sense you feel this way, plenty of people do but stay strong. i had a time when i didn't wanna get outta bed for school, completely lost; but it got better, like a cycle, though it sucks when it dips again... fingers crossed it gets easier for you too ✌️
absolutely concur with your assessment; school often functions as an oppressive environment, exacerbating mental health issues. recognizing the binary nature of stress, both academic and psychological, aligns with the current discourse. the cyclical nature of emotional turmoil is indisputable, yet resolution remains elusive. contrary to optimistic postulations, systemic factors frequently perpetuate such distress. hoping for improvement without addressing foundational issues is naive.
hey, i get school ain't easy but feeling pathetic because of it? :)
that's a bit much; maybe you're overthinking it 🤔 i mean, everyone feels the heat sometimes but blaming it all on mental health sounds like an excuse - i've been there, thinking everyone's talking about me, but guess what? they probably aren't!!! my parents also thought i was lazy, but once i pushed through, it got better eventually; sure, it takes work but hiding from it won't help 🤷 it's harsh but life's like that, buddy, gotta face it head-on... and the friend thing? you make pals when you don't expect it, just chill a bit and let things happen!!!
Man, I get that school's rough, but seriously, feeling like that every day seems a bit much. Sometimes you just gotta push through.
I had a phase where I thought everyone was against me too, but turns out most people are just busy with their own stuff; it's not always about you. 🤷♂️ Yeah, it sucks, and it's hard, but you can't just let it get you down like that.
When I was struggling, I figured out that focusing on myself was the key. Had to put in the effort even when it felt pointless, and you know what? It actually helped. So maybe give it a shot instead of assuming the worst. You might be surprised at how resilient you can actually be. 😐
I haven't really been bullied much . But I've hadeople talk behind my back and my home situation wasn't too good either , so there were times I quite literally dot diseases due to it. I was always expected to get the best results and study the most , I know how the pressure feels. And trust me , you're strong enough to go through it. Just do hat makes you happy and you'll be back to yourself.its normal to be stressed about this stuff. And you can live through it and I believe in you
look, i get that school can be overwhelming, but focusing solely on the negative aspects might be a disservice. i remember reading somewhere that "our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall." sure, academic stress and stuff like neurodiversity challenges can amplify your struggles, but sometimes you're just in your own head too much 😒 have you tried channeling that energy into something productive, like cognitive-behavioral strategies or mindfulness techniques? you're not the only one who's been through it; resilience might not be easy, but it's definitely doable if you give it a shot.
totally get where you're coming from, school can legit be a nightmare 😞 it's like everyone's always saying "high school is the best time of your life," but sometimes it feels like a prison sentence. been there, felt worthless too when grades started dropping and no one seemed to care. also had the deal with people talking behind my back, like get a life, right? i think it’s crucial to prioritize your mental health even if others don't get it. you gotta do what's best for you. life's too short to be miserable and stuck in the same cycle.
sounds rough, i totally get it. dealing with school pressure and mental health stuff at the same time is brutal 😔 it's like they're expecting us to be robots that can handle endless stress without cracking. been there, and honestly, sometimes it feels like nobody really cares until you completely lose it. those bullies from the past just add fuel to the fire, and it sucks having no friends to back you up. feels like an endless loop where nothing changes, right? just wish there was an easy fix for all this mess. keep hanging in there, though; you're definitely not alone in feeling this way 🙏
so, school’s really getting to you, huh? i totally get the mental health thing, but isn’t thinking everyone's talking behind your back kinda extreme? 🤔 not everyone in the class is out to get you. sure, bullies suck, but projecting that onto everyone might hold you back. when you mentioned you get distracted by the people in the room, have you tried focusing on your work instead? honestly, sometimes you just gotta block out the noise and keep your head down. doesn't mean you're lazy or anything, just gotta redirect your thoughts a bit. how’s that one friend you mentioned—does he know how low you're feeling? maybe he could help you see things from a different angle.
Hey, I totally feel you—it sucks when school and mental health collide like that. 😞 But maybe you're being a bit hard on yourself, thinking no one cares. I used to think everyone was out to get me too, but honestly, most people are just wrapped up in their own worlds. It's wild how much past bullying sticks with you... I had some pretty bad experiences in middle school, and it took me forever to shake off that feeling of being an outsider. 🙄
But hey, you've got that one friend who makes you feel seen—that's huge! Maybe try opening up more to him; sometimes just talking can take a load off your shoulders. Have you considered finding a hobby or something outside of school where you might meet more people? It could be a good way to break the "same cycle" you're stuck in and give you something else to focus on besides the stress of school. Just remember, it's not about being perfect; it's about taking small steps forward whenever you can. 😊 It’s tough now, but hang tight—you'll find your way through this mess eventually.
I understand feeling overwhelmed, but have you considered seeking professional guidance?
Man, it sounds like you’re really caught in a tough spot; everyone’s been there at some point, feeling overwhelmed and thinking nobody cares. I can relate to feeling isolated during school, like no one got what I was dealing with behind the scenes. But maybe you're looking too much at the negative aspects of things? It might help to shift focus even just a little bit on something that motivates you or brings joy, besides school stress?! Finding more moments with your friend who makes you feel seen could be beneficial. You never know, those small interactions might slowly start changing the narrative you've been living; give it a shot!
You talk about feeling like your family thinks you're lazy, but isn't it possible they're just unaware of how tough things really are for you; Not everyone gets the nuances of mental health struggles and school stress, so maybe try having an honest conversation with them to see if they'll understand better?
honestly, do you think maybe you're giving too much power to the past and letting it control your present with all these worries?
