i have maybe one friend and she doesnt treat me the best
and
my counsler thought it would be better for me cause ive been hurting myself


basically idk what to do now i mean im crying right now as im typing this cause of how i feel and i feel as if its my biggest mistake ever
 
You can still get a job without going to High School. You can always do classes via books from a learning resource centre and get the necessary credits. All hope is not lost. I feel for you, man. Don't beat yourself up. If I may...

wow that didnt help any that kinda just made it worse cause um dont they all die eventually
 
RE: dropped outta high school now i feel like crud

Urm first of all, why did you drop out? Why was you crying. If you want help then you have to tell us the full story.

Anyway, you might aswell be homeschooled if you don't want to go Highschool. I don't know the US education system. But there must be something that is very important to colleges. So without that Im afraid your life wont have many choices :/. So yh, get the qualifactions at home if you cant socialise with others.

Feel for you man. You should never get bullied, stick up for yourself :D

I can't believe a counselor would advise you to just quit school like that. The problem seems to be in your old school, so any sane counselor should have at least considered advising you to move to another school...

I'd definitely try to pick up where you left off, possible at another school. Yes, there's work without a decent education, but if you're not the most social person, it's probably not going to be fun, the pay won't be nice, and you'll probably end up having a lot of regret...

If school really isn't an option, as Forum Shark suggested, try to get an education one way or another, if you don't even have a high school diploma, you're probably going to have quite a bit of problems in life.

You wouldn't even have been allowed to quit at your age where I live ._.

High school isn't an absolute requirement for a successful life. I will admit that things will probably be more difficult for you as a result of dropping out, but we are all capable of shaping our lives to our liking, so never accept defeat- especially in such an early stage of your life. There are many ways to make something of yourself, be it learning in your spare time, or starting off in a mediocre job and climbing your way to the top of the corporate ladder. There's always an option.

So what should you do right now? I imagine that now you have dropped out of high school, you have quite a lot of time on your hands. It is very important to keep yourself occupied, because too much free time will often make a person depressed. Finding a job is the ideal solution, because that will earn you some money (which really is an excellent morale booster), give you responsibilities (great for confidence, you'll see), and you'll end up making some new friends in the process. It doesn't really need to be a decent job, just something to keep you busy. If you feel like taking another stab at education, then maybe try a new high school if you can? It's all up to you.

My girlfriend's step brother is a high school drop out, he ended up getting his GED, then went to school for some computer thing. Like a couple month course, now like 20+ years later (he's in his 30's), he's making 6 digits a year. Everyone says you need to get your high school diploma, but what they don't tell you is a GED is just as good. Plenty of people are fine when they drop out, all you hear about are the lazy people with no initiative really.
 
RE: dropped outta high school now i feel like crud

Ive also been really depressed like i cant stop cry or cutting myself
 
RE: dropped outta high school now i feel like crud

You should try online highschool
you do not have to see anyone.
 
RE: dropped outta high school now i feel like crud

Well that is a thing you may have to discuss with your family. Nothing is that bad that harming yourself is the solution. All it does is cause pain, make life awkward and shows you have given in. Always fight. There is always a way out. You just got to make the right choices
 
Ok, first, please use interpunction for god's sake o_O'

Well, I still don't get the whole story. Why have you been miserable? And why do you cry at lunch? What's that worse that it makes you getting dropped out of high school every time? What's the real reason of it, since I don't see a reason of advising someone to quit school because he's miserable.

Home-schooling/self educating is an alternative option left for you. At least if you're able to get yourself doing that (I've a high chance of having ADD (not tested yet), but for me something like that would be impossible).

Anyway, I hope you can give us the reasons of your behavior. Since this was all I could do, hope you'll be fine soon.
 
RE: dropped outta high school now i feel like crud

Ok, I'm like, way younger than you and my ideas are probably dumb because I'm just an immature 12 year old, but whatever, I'll try.
First of all, STOP FREAKIN' CUTTING YOURSELF! It won't make you feel any better. Aren't you like... a Weavile? strong-willed and confident? That's what it says in your sig. Second, a bit off topic but lots of people hate school as much as it seems you hate it(like me), so you're not alone.

If you think you need to get smarter and more educated and all that stuff that public school claims they teach you (they usually don't), then either take online classes, or homeschool. Homeschooling is like... whoever created it is a genius. You don't have to wake up at 7:00AM and drive or get driven to a school you dread. You can sleep in till 9:00 or so, then do 1 on 1 (sometimes more) classes with... whoever as a teacher. You get way more work done in way less time, generally get better lunches, and a bunch of other stuff that is way easier. It sometimes can be expensive, but it's usually worth it.

So yeah, there's a bit out of an immature 12 year olds mind. Good luck!
 
RE: dropped outta high school now i feel like crud

If you feel bad about quiting school, you can always enroll in another school. If this doesn't work out, I'd reccomend getting a small job, and saving your money. Most small community colleges offer high school courses. You also (in some cases) are in a more mature environment when in college. Make sure to be open with your parents, as they can help in tough situations. If you ever want to talk about anything, feep free to PM me!
 
Let me take a stab at this....

It seems like you are depressed and lack social skills. That parallels me a lot. First off, stop cutting yourself. It gets you nowhere.

Secondly, what are your problems with a lack of making friends in school? Do you feel anxious when talking to people? Don't know what to say? Feel inferior?

How is your home life?

I used to have a lot of those problems, minus the cutting. I am more depressed and lonely now, but I have more motivation and a little more self confidence. I also do very well in social situations. It is a really difficult slump to get over. As for my age, I'm 18.

You need to give us some more information besides "I dropped out, have one friend, and cut myself". You're coming here for advice, we need moar info. ;)
 
okay let me tell you a story

i had a friend who just moved here and he ahted school becuase people where so mean and he went to homeschool.

i know you feel depressed but listen man i have been made fun of so much for loving pokemon my whole life but i say is "i love pokemon deal with it" don't give any person your power once they see your hurt they will keep on comin. i know you dropped out of school but first do what you can to get back in. your personal life should never prevent you from being succesful it might be hard now but man you can do it. you can do it. you can do it. i beleive in you now show the world who you truly are:).
 
RE: dropped outta high school now i feel like crud

Ok im depressed
alone
feel inferior
Im made fun of
i hate my life
and
at home i stay in my room in the dark the obly light in there i use is the light from my iphone
 
RE: dropped outta high school now i feel like crud

Don't feel depressed. Yes, it was an error for you to drop out of school, but it isn't the end of the world. You still have time to fix your errors, join another school, and make some new friends. I'm made fun of at school. I don't have a lot of friends. I often do feel alone. But just not doing anything doesn't help at all.

Talk to your parents about this. What do they think is best for you?

My point is, just because you made a mistake doesn't mean it's all over. You can still fix those mistakes ;)
