I hope Uni will be a fresh start with new people who are more mature/nicer.I am giving up, to the point where I dont want to do school work anymore either because I am too down.I feel like a complete social failure and want to hide.Going to school sucks so much energy from me, acting like I have the sensativity of a rock even tho Im crumbling :( I dont have any close friends who understand me.also my ex is going out with his ex again. I feel like the world is against me but feel bad for even being this upset cuz i know the world has bigger problems n i dont want to sound trivial.Please helpp me see some light tho :(

While I am at a completly different place in my life, I have struggled with some of the same feelings and do understand at least part of how you are feeling. Like anon said we all feel like that at some time, and it feels like life will always be like this. But it WON'T! Try reaching out to someone at school, maybe there is someone else that feels the same way that you do. If you need to talk feel free to PM me. :-) Good Luck!

I felt the same way that you did. It's nothing to worry about. You're at probably the most important moment in your life so i'd advise you to study hard and get into a good university. This is your chance for a fresh new start so dont fret too much about having no friends, they'll be tons of people when you get to Uni. If you feel too down, then go into town and buy yourself something nice. Good Luck :)

First of all your problems are not trivial. But they are common, take solace in that maybe. This is an extremely difficult time in many people's lives. It makes it harder too when you see other people around you completely oblivious to what you're going through, and you ask yourself why are they so different to you? Why do you feel this way and they don't?I didn't have many friends in school and I lost nearly all of them when I left. It wasn't for lack of trying either, they just all seemed to turn their backs on me. I don't know why, I just don't seem able to hold on to frineds. And although people seem to like me I don't seem to be able to make new ones. I have one good friend who I've known since school and that's it. We're not all that close and I don't see him often. And I've often wondered what's wrong with me. And why making friends and socialising seems so easy to other peopleHopefully, things will be different for you when you move on to uni. You'll meet a wider range and variety of people and hopefully find somewhere to fit in. My advice to you would be to focus on your school work. Make that a priority now and look forward to going to uni. Don't give a damn about anything else. And why should you give a shit what your ex is doing or who he's seeing? You've moved on.School is not your entire life. The world will open up to you when you leave. It's all up to you. You may never have the social life that you want, but that doesn't mean you can't have a full and rewarding life (I'm just realising that now at my age). But I know it's not easy. It may never be easy but it will seem less hopeless the older you get.Don't give up.I sincerely wish you all the best.

I don't remember many things. I had conflicts , I cried and cried... But also laughed, and had some really cool moments.. I haven' t made real friends, know most of the people at school, but you I never told secrets and girly things to anyone..I have spent hours crying.You are not a failure, I am sure you are not.. Study hard this year , pass to the university and study sth that you love. You are gonna be free and make a new start. Have faith, concentrate and wait.! Have a possitive attidute and everything will change for your good..And I suggest you look around the schoolyard.. How many girls are real friends with their friends?Most are acting, you are real and aim for the real things!
