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.

Eh, from Canada?

Hello, it is about 10pm as I wright this, believe it or not it took my about ten or so minutes of hovering over the 'new topic' button before I mustered up the courage to create this, same with the sign up. I get nervous really easily and have conflicting personalities. Anyway, My name is Sam, but please call me either Sam or any variation of my user-name. I go to a small country school, literally, it has TWO HALLWAYS, that's it. Where everyone knows everyone, I guess you could say I live in a sort of hillbilly kind of place.

I really like to write and use it to get out my emotions, stories, dreams, diary entries, bad fan-fiction, anything really, and even though people say I'm good, I doubt myself.

Anyway (I say that a lot, don't I?) I have farm animals to take care of.

Thank you in advance. And hopefully I'll see you on the forums,

Sam

To make it simple... every-one on this forum is insane. Well, you don't have to be insane, but it helps.

Thought that was True Anarchist? Anyway, welcome. I advise you to take all the sanity that's been dumped at the doorstep and keep it. You'll need it to survive here.

And I've decided to call you Moriko.

STALKER!!! Anyhow, yes, I do buy my milk in bags, usually, I don't see how that's relevant though.

P.S. Which red shirt? :<_<:

And whenever people make the simplest spelling mistakes that have pretty much no effect on your ability to read.
