I currently have a 72% attendance rate. I know some teachers think I’m skipping classes for fun, but I’ve actually been in the hospital after a suicide attempt. Unfortunately, I’m being targeted and teased at school. On Monday, I attended for the first time in two weeks and, after the test, I quickly gathered my things and tried to leave because the other students were being really cruel and seemed to know about what happened. They started following me, so I just ran out. I have to go back tomorrow, and I’m feeling really anxious about it.
I’m really sorry to hear that you’re going through such a tough time. It’s incredibly brave of you to share what you’re experiencing. You deserve support and understanding, not judgment and bullying. If you feel comfortable, consider talking to a trusted teacher or counselor about what’s happening. They might be able to help address the bullying and provide you with the support you need. Remember, you’re not alone, and there are people who care and want to help you. Please take care of yourself and prioritize your well-being.
