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.

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.

Re: A picture everyone here will find familiar

so true .
my school is really old about 150 somethin years and we have 2 stairs from each side of the building (they are quite small) but the problem is only the teachers are allowed to use the 1st stairs and the whole school has to go up the other stairs. so every day we walk up and down through this crowd of slow people . at least im a senior and the smaller kids let me trough Cool

Re: A picture everyone here will find familiar

I was pretty good at getting through. Just kind of run through, saying excuse me over and over. People move out of your way. Sometimes there's a group standing really tight together, and you just have to stick your hand between two of them and squeeze through. A rare person will shout after you that you are rude, but fuck those idiots for not realizing that they are clogging the hall.

A fun game: Run the circle of the school (if your school's halls are like that) all the way back to your starting point without getting touched by a single person, and make it back in time for class. I only managed to do it twice.

Re: A picture everyone here will find familiar

I was good at manuevering the crowded halls back in high school. As long as there was some space I could slip through, it was easy pickings. Even the slow bastards had nothing on me. Also, I never used a locker, so fuck if the last situation ever applied to me.

Gahh it's the exact same shit here. I basically evade people going side to side when going up stairs... It's even worse during lunch, and a lot of people love to block stairs to chatter.

Stairs... Fucking stairs at schools. The only time they're safe is immediately when class is over, or during class. Beyond that, they're untraversable hellholes, aren't they?

I fell on the stairs once, but there were so many people on them that I had a nice cushion and didn't get hurt at all!

My locker was always right outside of my first and second classes. :troll:

But yeah, the other two I can relate to.

No, my hands were like up in the air, and then the people I fell on pushed me back up onto my feet.

Re: A picture everyone here will find familiar

You think your school's bad? Yeah, well my school is actually a Elementary School that was turned into a High School because my city is too poor/cheap to build a new one. So you can tell how small the Hallways are and how insanely difficult it is to navigate the school.

ALSO, My school's 3rd Floor is SEPARATED. One side of the 3rd floor on the left half of the school. And the other Half on the right side of the school.

Example: So when I have to go to Earth Science class (which is on the right side of the 3rd floor) from my Spanish class (which is on the left side of the 3rd floor) I have to go all the down to the FIRST FLOOR, walk all the way to the other-side of the hall, then go all the way back up the flights of steps to the other 3rd floor. All while trying to get through all the assholes in the Hallway.....

We lug them around in a backpack or bag or something similar. Some girls I see only carry a bag big enough to carry their makeup, but of course, they're not there to do any work, they're there to socialise and be generally rude and obnoxious.

lol @ women . at least u people dont have to go to an all girl or an all boy school. in ireland nearly all schools are like that and they're old too . but girls at my school still end up comparing who looks better ( even though we all wear uniforms)
