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.

Lick the handle on a payphone, preferably one that is heavily used. You may or may not die.

Re: getting sick
Just ask around at school. There's always somebody who isn't feeling very good. Hang around them as much as possible. Anyone with a runny nose probably has something that you want, and a few tips are:
1) The more sleep you have, the less chance you have of getting sick. So, stay up UBER late.
2) Although being in the cold won't actually make you sick, it does lower your immune system making you more susceptible to disease.
Hope I helped.

Re: getting sick
have a heavy breakfast and swig a pint of rum on the bus towards school, you will become drunk, and eventuly vomit. ergo she cant deny you're"sick" and will be asked to leave. also you get shitfaced. its win/win.

Re: getting sick
Yeah, I wasn't be serious, please don't do that. You'd probably get seriously sick from doing it.

Re: getting sick
I think the OP wanted to get sick just to get out of school a couple of days. If he were to lick a payphone, he'd probably get something that may last a little longer than a couple of days.

Go to a laboratory, ask for some anthrax, or some ebola, and there you go, small pox would work too

Re: getting sick
am i really surprised of how many people on this thread actually give advices on how to get sick. Its sad to see how teenagers would rather get sick/get a disease than go to school. Just look at what the school system has done to us !!! Its really sad...

Exactly.
But seriously,are there some good/easy ways to get a high temperature or anything?
I'd really do anything to stay out of school,even for just couple of days.
