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.

What do you do when you are sick?

So today, I got a REALLY bad stomachache (I also diarrhea Biggrin)
Because of this my mom was nice enough to let me stay home Biggrin Biggrin Biggrin

So what do you do when you are sick, and not at school?

I play video games, draw manga, go on an app hunt on my Nexus 7, eat a lot of food, and listen to music.

Sometimes I'll read a book or play a video game, but usually I just sleep all day.

RE: What do you do when you are sick?

Sleep, watch youtubes and netflixes, tell my mom to get orange juice because she always does when I'm sick and I just love orange juice.
Spray nasal decongesting sprays in my nose until my sinuses burn when I breath, cuddle with a box of tissues.

I don't really get the stomach bug, I only get colds...

Sleep, rest with dog, eat, watch TV, don't shower, don't get dressed, don't brush teeth, don't take medication, do stuff on computer, pee, poop, sometimes play with dog if I have the energy, sometimes do homework.

What do you do when you are sick?

If It's bad enough(or my parents are at home), I'll probably be stuck in bed(except for food and bathroom). Then, I'll probably be sitting up in bed reading a book or using my phone to surf the web when they aren't looking.

If it's nothing serious and my parents leave for work, I'll most likely be using my laptop, watching TV, and just relaxing.
