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.

Stare at walls, that's what they all do in boarding schools.

Hi RB
welcome.
i am trying to help make this site a little bir more of a caring communty, where we all care about each other and support each other emotionally. and not judge each other but try to undersand each other. iit already is that in a lot of ways but i am a writer and i write about how to do this stuff in a bit more precise way.
one thing in particular i am concerned with is teen depression and self harm. it seems a lot of people who come here either get depressed or angry or both and i think a fair few self harm or have done.
so anyhow ,if u want, u can pm me with any info along those lines. or post it here if ur ok with that.
also, i am working on an idea for a survey to show how uncaring schools are. i invite u to have a loook at this link and send in ur feedback about ur school
http://eqi.org/p1/caring/
later we want to do something like rate schools acccording to how free they are, including things like censoring the internet, as urs does. so if u want to help with that project, let me know.
thanks and again, welcome
