The story

Teenagehood is a crock of shit. All those teen shows and movies fucking lied!! (TW mentions of depression)

I have about a year until I graduate and I’m lowkey getting impatient. I can’t wait to move to University and close this miserable chapter of my life.

I mean yeah there were lots of fun things, but the bad things were just SO BAD that I can’t ignore them at all.

Like don’t get me started on my mental health, the moment I turned 13 that shit deteriorated like crazy!! Like I love my parents but they’re one of the main reasons I’m so depressed like they’ve done so many things that genuinely make me wanna kms!! I actually had a real fear when I was 14 that I wouldn’t make it past 16 cause I might lose my mind and end it!

I also can’t wait to leave this school. Everyone here is so fucking fake like ugh, and the only two people who I felt even remotely comfortable with being myself left the school (one of them left the fucking continent)!

Everyone else is so fake, I can’t believe there was a time where I genuinely saw them as friends, like thank goodness I opened my eyes and stopped brainwashing myself! Gurl, they barely, if ever, talk to you, and they DEFINITELY say shit behind your back like “look at the gay depressed emo girl with anger issues, she probably cuts herself” (I don’t but if scars didn’t exist I would in a heartbeat).

And let me not start on dating! Those teen romance stories are fake as fuck!! Good thing I didn’t try to date any of these fuckass boys! They’re so fucking insensitive and misogynistic! The only time some of those fuckers show any interest in me is when they wanna sexualise my body! Go eat shit!!

Soon I’m gonna graduate and leave this place, and I’m gonna block every whackass motherfucker from this school man I’m done!!

I guess if anyone wants to share their version of teenage hood or if they somewhat relate to my experience go ahead.

Honestly, teenagehood is just a preview of life’s bigger shitshow. Adults have their own struggles and dramas; you might want to temper those expectations about university. Sure, that transition can offer freedom but it doesn't guarantee a utopia full of perfect people or solutions to current woes 😉 Besides, every phase brings its own set of headaches—might want to brace yourself for what lies ahead.

Oh, I'm aware. Of course I know university is usually harder to navigate than high school, but I was focusing more on the social aspect. It would be nice to start afresh and meet new people in a new environment.

And yes, navigating relationships as an adult is also very complicated, I'm also very aware of that. I just think uni. would be a great opportunity to surround myself with new people and get another chance to make meaningful relationships, like starting a new chapter in life.

indeed, uni is a great opportunity to meet new people and start afresh: you can be a completely new person, you might even discover people you never even imagined being friends with! :)
