My story

"Sarah why did you get a bad grade on this assignment! Your such
a failure! Get ready to show Mom and Dad these bad grades!
Stupid! Retard!" I remembered these thoughts swirling through my
head each day as my anxiety would take over my mind.
I was sixteen years old when things started to take a turn for
the wost. I started high school and people were really mean and
cruel. I was ignored and nobody wanted to be my friend because I
was different. I was known for being emotional and slightly
weird. I was in this academy that had taken in the most
academically best and gifted students. I was accepted in the
ninth grade, but I wish that I could tear up my application. It
was not worth it.
I was bullied all of high school from tenth to eleventh grade.
The guys in the academy would comment that I was an idiot,
retarded, stupid, and these things that would berate me. I never
was happy in high school. It was a pretty bad school that had
multiple fights and had even experience the worse of situations
(a school shooting.) Each day, I would spend at least three
hours doing homework after school. Even when I was doing school
work I only did it in the closet. My anxiety was always had an
all-time high. All my other schoolmates were able to laugh and
enjoy life. I was alone and never had true happiness. I would
only get two hours of sleep and I would feel physically and
mentally awful. I would also start to do bad stuff like drink
alcohol and smoke to feel a slight bit of relief. I was truly in
the darkest place.
My parents had got me help through talk therapy but I was never
happy. I would cry pretty much each day (it would be once in a
blue moon I would smile). It wasn't until I was put on
medication that things sort of changed (I'm not saying that it
works for everyone). I was more calmed and I still attended
therapy. I reached out to people that I could trust and I met my
best friend (who we shared similar situations) She got me into
athletics and look forward to the future. There was something
after high school and in life.
Right now, I enrolled in university. I am a nursing major and
want people to know there is strength in the worse times. I left
my hometown and I feel that it was for the best. It is healthier
that I had started somewhere new. I met so many new friends. I
had felt stronger on my own

'm so sorry you had such a bad time in high school. When people
bully others and are cruel and hurtful, they usually don't like
themselves very much. Unfortunately, they often put their misery
onto us. Anyone would be "emotional" under those conditions.
(I'm glad you left your hometown, too.)
I hope you're able to get the proper rest you need, now
💤 (even though I'm sure it's difficult at times, being a
nursing major).
Thank you for letting us see that there is a "light at the end
of the tunnel" and that things can get better.

Wow, I'm really glad things got better for you. Your story is so
inspiring, I'm gonna keep this in mind whenever I have a really
crappy day. :D
