I just skipped class because I can’t stand school anymore.
I don’t skip to go do drugs or anything, I just go home. I feel like crying all the time when I’m there and I was on the verge of tears at school, and I don’t know why. I don’t know what to do. Should I call my mom and tell her what happened or should I go back to school? I don’t know if I can.

Where were you?

You need to figure out what is bothering you so much, fix it, and get back to your life before you f**k it up.
you being bullied?
No, I’m not being bullied. I don’t really have friends though, and that’s partly why I’m upset all the time.
are you doing well in all of your classes?
Yeah. I’m a pretty much straight A student.
are you shy?
I’m quite shy. Hobbies? Yeah, but they’re all things you do by yourself. Drawing, playing guitar, writing, etc.
do you have any siblings?
life is about success my friend, if you’re successful in something then you’ll meet and make many friends along the way. School is important in your life right now and that’s all you should be concerned with. Don’t neglect school because one element is missing. It will integrate in due time.
I have an older sister who’s 21.
I know school is important. I do fine with all the work and stuff, it’s the socializing that I have trouble with.
I had the feeling before. I remember when I was in 8th grade. I had like a few months there where I was just not feeling like I wanted to be around people. People were just too harsh. It made me upset. I just wanted to withdraw and stay home. Play games, something on my own. It took a while to pass, but the best thing was talking to my friends. It made it a bit easier. Also, if your mom cares about you, talk to her. Yes, school is important, but if your that upset, being at school isn’t going to do any good. You have to take care of your mental well being first. After that, everything else will fall in line. Don’t be discouraged, be proud of who you are. You are unique and worthy alot of good things!
to be quite honest, i don’t have many friends neither. Not because i’m a horrible or bitter person but because i’m also a little shy. I tend to keep to myself and discover personal enlightenment through solitude. I enjoy reading a wide variety of stories and I am unable to adhere to comprehend anything i read unless i am in a quite atmosphere. So yes, you’re not the only person in that boat.
Keep attending school and achieving good grades because that will all reflect on your reputation later through life. Don’t make the habit of leaving school early because it will sink you indefinitely. Take control of your life and realize your dream. Then dedicate yourself to making that dream a reality.
You described exactly how I feel. I rather be by myself most of the time than with people. I would talk to my friends, but the problem is that I don’t really have any close relationships with people. I have a few people I talk to at school during class, but that’s about it. I will probably talk to my mom, but she’ll take me to the doctor and he’ll probably say I have depression and give me anti-depressants. Which is fine, I guess, but I don’t like the idea of taking medication to feel happy.
I’m going to call my mom and tell her what happened, and then go back after lunch.
honesty is a very admirable trait and it can cure the worst of scenarios. good luck with school.
Thanks for the advice. :)
I know how you feel, its like sometimes it doesn’t seem like school(boring) is where you want to be. I know iv felt this way and gone home soo many days. I think its alright though, ya kno, we all sometimes just need our space. If your getting good grades, then why not take off a day or two. Maybe relax a bit at home and take a new outlook on school :)
get involved in extra-curriclar actiities to meet new friends, then you will also have something to look forward to at the end of the day :) i have the exact same problem as u :P
