This is mmy 2nd year in Marching band. I am in a different section and I know everybody in it. Most of my friends are in it and I loved it last year. But this year, I sort of feel like I don't fit in anymore or just going to band practice does not seem that great anymore. I just don't feel right being there anymore but a part of me wants to continue. What should I do??

i still wanted to continue, because playing was really fun! but it had just gotten old since i started, so i just quit. also, i was the only trumpet and everyone depended on me. and i dont do well under pressure.
why dont you try to focus on the music for a while more. wait it out a few weeks. and if you still feel this way, just ask your conductor if you can take a few days to yourself. make up an excuse like you're getting a cold. and if you STILL feel like this, then just quit. theres no reason you should still be in it if your not enjoying it like you used to.
