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.

-SoulRiser

The forums are mostly read-only and are in a maintenance/testing phase, before being permanently archived. Please use this time to get the contact details of people you'd like to keep in touch with. My contact details are here.

Please do not make a mirror copy of the forums in their current state - things will still change, and some people have requested to be able to edit or delete some of their personal info.

COMMUNISM is when you have two cows, the governement takes both and gives you the milk
SOCIALISM is when you have two cows and give one to your neighbour.
NEW DEALISM (is when things go wrong) is when you have two cows, the government takes both, shoots one and milks the other but then throws the milk away.
CAPITALISM is when you have two cows and then sell one to buy a bull.
FACISM is when you have two cows, the government takes both and sells you the milk.
NAZISM is when you have two cows, the government takes both and shoots you.

Re: Why was your day awful?

I had really weird dreams last night and I woke up crying and gasping for breathe, I woke Mark up and told him how bad I felt but he didn't help much, lazy bastard wont even get out of bed to make sure I'm OK. I cut myself while I washed the dishes so I got some blood in the sink. I'm still really mad at Mark for looking a pron, I don't please him enough, I'm going to try and stop eating or something, there must be something I'm doing wrong if I don't sexually please him...

Maybe you're not doing anything wrong. Maybe he has some kind of addiction problem, or maybe he's just being insensitive to your feelings. :(

PP, guys are horny as fuck. They can't be satisfied just through sex... they need their 'alone time' as well. It ain't your fault.

I highly suggest Mobb Deep's albums The Infamous and Hell on Earth, if you have not listened to it yet.

Him looking at porn doesn't mean you don't please him enough or something. Maybe he just likes porn. I mean... who doesn't like porn? (guys I mean) Uhoh

Well, it was the other dude's choice to shoot up the house, so I'd put most of the blame on him...

Re: Why was your day awful?

I realized that the human race is doomed to constant war, deception, and inequality yesterday. I then subsequently realized there is very little I can do about it. Maybe they'll nuke each other so much we're sent back into a neolithic state, that would at least alleviate population growth.

No matter what anybody's told you, there is no Underground; only a hidden forum for SoulRiser to curse us while she acts nice everywhere else.

Re: Why was your day awful?

I woke up earliest of everyone in the house, so boredom from the start.
I got left home alone cause I had to go to work.
I only worked for AN HOUR because my friend Will decided to switch me with someone else so he could hang out with me.
He picked me up from work and picked up a few friends.
I was dropped off at home alone again cause there was no room in the car.
Then they don't even get me from the house.
they where ouside for an hour before I even noticed and by that time they all had to go.

So I did nothing all F*@ing day.
Biggrin

:-P
That is all.

I feel like I won't be able to function in society, at least not happily, and will end up falling on my face.

I'm in the same exact situation here. Graduating early but afraid to live on my own and unsure of the future. Well, I hope all goes well for ya.

Re: Why was your day awful?

Quote:I don't find myself interested in any subject that I can make a living out of, I feel doomed to live a mediocre life working in an industry that I can barely tolerate.

I felt that way until like... last year, or something. Look at it this way... any job you get is just a temporary way to make some $$ while you find out what you really want to do. There are bazillions of "subjects" out there that most people don't even know about.

Quote:I also kept thinking about how odd my personality is today, and feel like if I lose my current relationship (which might happen due to driving him away with my oddities), that there won't be anyone else willing to deal with me.

Sadhug
What you need is someone who likes you because of your oddities... not despite them.
