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.

Actually it can be pretty fun as long as you aren't too sick. You are grossly generalizing it.

You seem more mild, but maybe that's just because sarcasm is awesome.

Wolfeh Wrote:It got worse.

So I had that nasty cough for a while, and the meds were making it get better, but I still had the pain in my side. Today, I was at Subway, when I was ordering my bullshit, I turned to the side and coughed a bit. When I coughed, I heard a decently loud internal pop, and an excruciating pain took me over.

I couldn't stand up straight, I couldn't breathe without it hurting terribly, and I could hardly speak because the pain was so bad. I tried bearing through it for the rest of the school day, but it was so hard. It still hurts extremely bad, and I can't drive with my left hand, or even use my left hand to roll up the window.

This fucking sucks. :<

I think you probably have Pleurisy as a side effect of the Bronchitis or one of the drugs, that would explain the pain on your side and the cheat pain when beating. If it's Pleurisy the pain on your side will last longer then the other problems from the Bronchitis, you might notice it on your right side a little bit too, but the two are independent of each other.

Try taking hot baths... heat should help a little bit.
