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.

In other news, Mr McKenzie will regret saying that students with mp3 players and IPods are anti social and prefer to be distracted from having civilized conversations.

As soon as I finish school I'm gonna rip his brain out through his nose

Vent:
And now I've been informed that, although it's my body and I have the right to decorate it the way I choose, I have to wear some ugly fucking dress to my sisters 18th. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

I have no problem with dresses (I'm not one of those pansy girls though, I think we've established that). They're fine. Skirts are okay too. I'm not a slut so don't even suggest that.

But this dress is..... Yuck . I'm not sure what they fuck they're on but they austomatically assumed I wanted to wear a long, black dress that looks like it's alive. Seriously, it has loose threads all over it (they're supposed to be there).

They're saying "Oh Edie, you look so beautiful, balh balh blah." SHUT THE FUCK UP, I DON'T NEED TO BE TOLD WHAT TO WEAR!!

And my friends have obviously gotten to me, because the whole time I've been thinking (sorry people) "cleavage, WHERE THE FUCK ART THOU!?!"

AAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH​HHHHHH!!

Another reason i hate school is because of some of the people. These 3 fagots wont stop talking about me, why the fuck its it so fucking important to them. Dont they have lives? Those motherfuckers say my grandmother does black magic. WTF!? I may not like my grandma but they have no fucking right to say shit like that. Those fucking snakes, in front of me they act like there my best friends, I hate them and they know i hate them, They hate me and I know. But on the surface they hid their ugly face and try to fool me. I wanna start a Kuwait chainsaw massacre!!!!!!!!!

It's going to be a pretty long play.

Let's see. (This is for my shrink)
Positive #1: Brook hates me, meaning I don't have to be nice anymore

Positive #2: My iPod hasn't been taken off me yet.

Positive #3: I don't have any homework.

Heh, Brook hates me because I'm not allowed to be friends withj anyone else but her and my current group. This is a very good thing, because as soon as she finds out I know she hates me, I won't have to be nice anymore.
And I don't give a shit how many connections she's got, because this is an issue between me and her and if anyone else attempts to get involved I'll kick their anorexic asses straight to Hell. Smile

good idea.........a goat named fuck, that shall be the title. The plot will devolope around a goat who seems to give people epiphanies whenever somone makes eye contact with it, and it will just be a bunch of peoples stories added together and then somehow intertwines in a clever way....DAMNIT, THAT SOUNDS LIKE BABEL.

Dickwad popular guys. They piss me off so fucking much... I wasn't in the mood to make a new topic and decided that it wasn't worth it. They're extreme asswholes to girls, yet they still seem to like the guys. How the fuck does this happen, it's like they aren't human. One died his hair bleach blond and shaved a lightning bolt, the bears logo, and his name into his hair. WhyTF would anybody want to do that? Wtf Anyways. IDK, I'm just sick of those asswholes who are well, assholes, yet still are loved by people.


Okay, not saying I want to be like them, but they're just annoying as shit.


Sorry for swears and stuff if anybody actually cares.

Noo well i was in class the other day and i overheard two of my 'friends' talking. i made out a few words but enough to get the picture. we are supposed to go out to lunch tommorow and the words i hear were "fine someone else will go with us," and "But i dont like him." So Im sort of hopping that they wernt talking about me. Noo

Whilst some work diligently there are those who ask why. I am one of them
