I cannot handle the idea of going back to school...


Question Posted Tuesday January 20 2009, 6:43 pm

I have had severe depression. Over Christmas break my mom transferred me to online school, which is a disaster. My computer isn't high tech enough and we don't have money to spare. So now I either have to find another solution or face school again. I hate school. So much that I started faking sick... a lot. I don't get along with people my age and the school environment fries my nerves. It's so depressing and humiliating that I'll have to go back after thinking I'd escaped or found a solution.
P.S. I don't think school is the cause of my depression but it definitely helps contribute to wearing me down.

i'm so sorry, i've been in the same boat before.

it's a lot harder to get out if you don't have the money :(

you can check to see if there is what's called an "alternative school" in your area, just google "alternative school+your school district".

find out, it's a school that has shorter hours and stuff...

or check yourself into a partial day-treatment program for depression. you may actually get some help there. they will be able to give you the next steps you need to take to overcome this. If you have insurance this should be free!

best of luck and god bless, hope things get better for you.
