This is for high school or post high school, actually never mind this is for everybody. Have you ever felt like you're not gonna make it through the year, or in my case to graduation. I have to go to college next year. I don't have a clue where I want to go and I should be applying very soon. I feel like I can't make it to graduation. I just need to get out. I want to just travel around the country just drive, with no destination. I know I can do that this summer, but I don't know what to do now, I still have six or so months until graduation. I just feel like I'm going to crack if things don't change. Any thoughts.
It sounds like you need to get laid and stoned. You're only 17, don't worry so much or you'll end up being a wench when you're old...if you can't deal with it all, how about just running away to the other side of the country?
Aw, honey, school can be Hell. But it most of the time passes. Go have a bath and listen to some music, do something that makes you happy. Feel better.
Well yea I agree with the laid and stoned thing!! But yea I want to runaway to the other side of the country. I really really want to but I don't know how. And you see the thing is I know this feeling isn't gonna go away. It's just always sort of been there.
Shit, I dont know how either, but I'm still doing it in a month or so Hmm...I think you need to run off, find some new friends, and since you dont really want to do anything else, I suggest you start doing mad drugs. Probably not the healthiest thing, but you'll forget about the rest of the world
Be a bum for a year! thats always fun. I went through the exact same thing. then i said fuck it! and stopped thinking about it.
That sounds like fun I mean why not, I know drugs aren't healthy in excess but you're only young once, i don't want to live that long anyway. I just don't really know anyone to get drugs from. Sucks! But I like the bum idea
I'm not really stressing, I know it sounds that way. It's just this overwhelming feeling, that I can't control, This feeling that I gotta get out. No matter what I do it comes back.
Just go where your soul takes ya... well, that really doesnt make sense...but if you want to travel after graduation, then do so. I went to college, dropped out and want to go back again, its okay if you dont know what college you want or what you want to do with your life. Thats the beauty of it all.. sorry, i really dont know where i was going with this....
haha, yeah, it was tough not to but didnt want her to think i was mocking her cause a couple of people assume that..
I second that... I think it's a wise idea to take a year off before you make any decisions. Lots of people do that these days. Honestly, how can someone of age 17 know what they want to do for the rest of your lives? (well not necessarily the rest of your life, but investing several years of stress and committment at university). It seems a bit premature to me, like being thrown into the deep end all of a sudden. In your year off you could get some work experience in a couple of the professions you're interested in and see if you REALLY want to spend years at university for something like that.
So crack baby ive cracked and its not a bad place to be yeah you know thats the thing im in my last year too and ive just stopped worrying about shit actually i stopped worrying about shit long ago but this year has been some pretty big shit ive just stopped thinking about it all i dont know what im gonna do next year but oh well i spent this last summer in london and i realised how much i love travelling and i plan on doing lots i mean here lets look at my situation i dont have a job i don’t have any money i dont have a licence not even a G1~ graduated license bullshit ontario has i dont have great grades maybe 60s 70s doubt its university material i have crazy parents ~ mind you we all do i have not done school work in maybe a month maybe longer or shorter i dunno time i have a tendency to skip my classes ~ skipped this morning actually i went to a little dwindling forest near my school and took pictures aw well the thing is its all a matter of how you take it if you let the stress over come you it will eat you alive listen to some music lite up some incense or a joint just do what ever makes you happy for your happiness is all that matters in my mind youre only successful if youre happy whats the point of having all sorts of material possessions and money if youre not happy ~ unless that makes you happy then go for that our society is fucked up we put an emphasise on 'you have to succeed' how do you succeed you get a good education, you get a good job, you make lots of money, have 2.5 kids, retire to the suburbs to die i do not consider that success i think i have ranted quiet enough my main point though it is hard to tell is just do whatever makes you happy ~peace and love to you all
Thank you, I don't care about money either, I've just never had a chance to do what I want I guess, I don't care about school at all but I have straight A's because if I don't I get killed by my parents, they think I'm a horrible child but I don't do anything wrong. They believe money is the route to happiness, I belive the complete opposite so much that I never want to do anything, just make music, and travel the country, who cares if I have no destination, I guess it's just suffocating some times because I have no way out right now, and if I don't find some way to channel my depression I just get in trouble, ofr being "non-realistic" And that can be depressing, ya know, when you get yelled at for being you, by the people who are supposed to support you the most. Thank you for your help!!! Sorry this was long
