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.

What do you do when you are sick?
So today, I got a REALLY bad stomachache (I also diarrhea )
Because of this my mom was nice enough to let me stay home
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...
I'm a girl ffffeck

"I've been making a list of the things they don't teach you at school. They don't teach you how to love somebody. They don't teach you how to be famous. They don't teach you how to be rich or how to be poor. They don't teach you how to walk away from someone you don't love any longer. They don't teach you how to know what's going on in someone else's mind. They don't teach you what to say to someone who's dying. They don't teach you anything worth knowing."-Neil Gaimen

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.
