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.

Fix the aspect ratio and filter out the deaths if you want to make it shorter.

Im using camtasia and quickly figured out how to edit out the deaths
The first video was just something from a stream and i was too lazy to edit it
I have no idea how to fix the aspect ratio but its not too bad
EDIT: Figured out the aspect ratio thing

Been a while huh?
Alright well I guess I should mention some things.
- Overall, life has gotten a lot better since I last posted here, struggles with the family have rised a bit physically mostly. (im fine dw)
- I've been a lot more social since I entered high school last year (freshman year) which has made my school experiences a ton better. The social experiences have also lead me to actually care how I look and be more aware of how I look to other people, which has also caused a fuckton of stress.
- I have come out as gay after about 2 1/2 years of confusion about my sexuality which have lead me to mostly befriend the queers of my school.
- I don't care about politics unless it directly effects me now which has lead me to really stop caring about stuff like this forum.
- I gave up on watching stuff like MLP or Anime and tv in general and mostly spend my time playing video games and sleeping.
- Any sort of gender confusion I once had is completely gone and I feel retarded for ever thinking of a subject so complicated so simply even at age 12, the only thing from when I was 12 that still remains is that i'm a little fucking bitch.
- Any anger issues I once had are gone due to basic maturity.
- Any and all dumb things I did as a child I regret immensely.
- No sort of depression has happened yet due to me under-estimating every problem I have emotionally and generally just being able to stop caring about it.
- I couldn't care less about school and shit because I see no reason to.
- This isn't a return, just a update.

tl;dr i'm gay, i'm not as autistic anymore,i don't care about anything, and this isn't a return.
