School makes me feel like giving up

It sounds over the top, but it really does. I’m in my last year, but I just can’t handle it. I feel like im losing my best friends, its SOOO strict, the teachers make you feel like shXt, theyre pressuring everyone to get good exam results, they scrutinize you about your uniform if its not perfect, and its just so stressful.

I keep thinking about getting drunk or doing drugs just to blot it all out, because I don’t feel I can cope at all. Not even for the 9 months I have left. I don’t know what to do.

I can’t tell the school, because they never believe anything the students say. I’m honestly not over-exaggerating, but they really do make the whole student body completely stressed. I don’t know what to do.

Answer #1

well all schools are the same your going to have stress every where and talk to your friends about it, but I have gotten into drinking and smoking before, and well that makes you loose your reall friends, then the only friends you gain are the ones who care more about the drugs and crap then you.

Answer #2

Drinking and smoking want help blot things out it’s only a temporary solution.And not even temporary it’s just not and option.You were smart enough to make it to the twelfth grade keep on being smart and stay in school.And go to college.As far as the teacher being strict there are rules everywhere you go.When you go to work a lot of jobs have dress codes. With the teachers yeah,some teachers are really mean but,that doesn’t mean you should give up.Just look forward to the day you graduate.Believe me one day you will look back and say “I wanted to do what because of nine more months of school”

Answer #3

You make it sound like you and the student body never do anything wrong so the teachers keep a close watch, just to be mean…nice story, but I’m not buying - let’s see: they try to help you get an education, be motivated to have a good future - and you: think I’ll do drugs and get drunk to forget it all…LIFE is Stressful - you only have a few months, act like their plan is better…it is.

Answer #4

Ok I felt the same way for a bit but never ever do drugs or get drunk! They don’t actually help you just think it does. Just make sure your friends help you through everything and time will fly by.
