RIP School Survival Forums
August 2001 - June 2017
The School Survival Forums are permanently retired. If you need help with quitting school, unsupportive parents or anything else, there is a list of resources on the Help Page.
If you want to write about your experiences in school, you can write on our blog.
To everyone who joined these forums at some point, and got discouraged by the negativity and left after a while (or even got literally scared off): I'm sorry.
I wasn't good enough at encouraging people to be kinder, and removing people who refuse to be kind. Encouraging people is hard, and removing people creates conflict, and I hate conflict... so that's why I wasn't better at it.
I was a very, very sensitive teen. The atmosphere of this forum as it is now, if it had existed in 1996, would probably have upset me far more than it would have helped.
I can handle quite a lot of negativity and even abuse now, but that isn't the point. I want to help people. I want to help the people who need it the most, and I want to help people like the 1996 version of me.
I'm still figuring out the best way to do that, but as it is now, these forums are doing more harm than good, and I can't keep running them.
Thank you to the few people who have tried to understand my point of view so far. I really, really appreciate you guys. You are beautiful people.
Everyone else: If after everything I've said so far, you still don't understand my motivations, I think it's unlikely that you will. We're just too different. Maybe someday in the future it might make sense, but until then, there's no point in arguing about it. I don't have the time or the energy for arguing anymore. I will focus my time and energy on people who support me, and those who need help.

Re: Poem
This thread is exquisite ass juice.
Let go of all desire for the common good, and the good becomes common as grass.
~~
Good fortune follows upon disaster;
Disaster lurks within good fortune;
Who can say how things will end?
Perhaps there is no end.

It was pretty good, but everyone decided to go Bobmanperson on the OP, so he/she removed it.
I'm so sick of all these people but I'm scared to be alone...

What does that mean?
Freedom is never given; it is always taken. So for the fact that you're not a slave, don't thank those in authority. Thank someone with a "bad attitude."

Re: Poem
ill post it again for you guys who care thanks.
This life is not for me
As i decipher feelings and thoughts from the people i see
As i move toward this prison where i am kept
I imagine my soul a demon that wept
I look up at skies so gloomy to me
I ask for an answer , but no answer i see
My life is a riddle of paper and ink
This life is wrong , i am on the brink
My fate is a luxury chosen for me
And i will never receive the one i seek.
Put me in a room full of people, how the fuck can I be lonely ?

Nahh its just with school and that there is really not much opportunity to be creative , so i do on the internet , i posted it on here to see if any of you guys liked it and to try and get an audience.
plus i think you get about 0.01 cents from every 6 views so thats waste of time,ima keep posting on there so people see my work but no other reason.
