    I dropped out but I do not regret it or I'm not ashamed. School made me MISERABLE. I dropped out because I was bullied A LOT. IDK Y THO CAUSE LOOKING BACK ON IT I KINDA WAS CUTE. I some how always became the target for some one to laugh . I guess u can say I had a lot of haters. I hated school and I couldn't understand the work because I was afraid to ask questions cuz ppl in my school would laugh at me for not understanding stuff that they understood. My algebra teacher hated me and I could tell. So I never wanted to bother her for anything. I struggled in algebra class. She really just let me sit there with my book closed. She never tried to talk to me or reach out to me about whether or not I understand the work or not. It was like if I didn't bother her or talk to her then she wouldn't talk to me or acknowledge me. She always just let me sit there with my head down. She definitely wasnt warm. I never understood anything about anything. I was being bullied so bad that the work became irrelevant. I was so caught up in "I'm not cool" and I was deeply depressed.....I was not happy . Nobody liked me cause I was a shy quiet kid. School was the most terrifying place for me. I tried to kill myself almost everyday after school. My mom caught me once trying to swallow a whole bottle of pills. I wanted to be dead...I felt worthless after everyone at school talked bad about me daily. I was bullied from kindergarten to high school. One girl pretended she was my friend. Until one day a boy told me she spit in my drink behind my back & I drank that whole soda too. That really hurt me so bad, man. I feel depressed just thinking about it right now. I wanted to beat her ass and I still regret that I didn't to this day. I couldn't figure out why everyone hated me. One time I was pooping in school in the bathroom. Four girls came into the bathroom and they were like ewww that bitch stank. So they knew it was me because they saw my shoes that they were making fun of earlier that day. All four of them stood at the top of the stall and looked in at me pooping on the toilet. They were surrounding me laughing at me while on the toilet with my pants down. They told all the boys in school and when I came out the bathroom , there was a group of boys in the hall laughing and calling me a ugly nasty bitch. I ran as fast as I could to the next floor. I remember one day a group of guys just sat across the class talking and laughing about me the whole time while the teacher was talking. The teacher did not even care enough to stop them. All six of them were throwing stuff at me and saying mean jokes. They called me an ugly bitch and said I looked like a man . I remember just sitting there staring down at the floor with tears just rolling down my cheeks. I tried to kill myself that day. One day the whole class started talking about me all cause one guy started. They humiliated me in front of 30 kids. They were throwing soda at me. I tried defending myself but I stuttered and messed up everything I tried to say and they laughed at me even more. I was mentally broken. I felt like nothing. I was so sure I was gonna kill myself after that day when I got home. I especially hated school after that... so one day I decided if It's making me so miserable, y go ???? Y go around ppl that hate me ? Y be around a bunch of negativity? FUCK them. FUCK everybody at school. FUCK the teachers and FUCK the work too. I don't understand that school work anyway . FUCK it and I stayed in bed that morning. I slept the whole day and didn't come out of my room for weeks. At least I was never tortured & humiliated in front of hundreds of school kids ever again.

I'm praying for you. And my God is there for you and if you have the time and are too tired for the more traditional options, watch an Elevation Church video to ease you of anxiety or something related to your problems.

If you have a passion, start doing it whilst you’re still in school, once you know you’re making enough to financially support yourself, then you can think about leaving school

    I'm 14 and ready to drop I don't even know why I'm even in high school I'm not on grade level I have problems understanding the work even if is simple. I can't even write correctly my punctuation is dumb and I'm tired . If I can't drop out at the age 14 I'll find a way to get kicked out because I can't be school for another year if I do my mental health is going to get worst, and I'm trying to prevent myself from doing anything dumb.

      honestly dont take education for granted - Yes I dropped out but I still gained a lot looking back from being in a social school environment. a lot of kids dont even get the chance - so always try your hardest, try your best, be kind to others and be kind to yourself and the right thing will always work out for the best.

    Question, can a 14 year old drop out of school in the UK? Because school gives me fears, I'm bullied and I can't even spend time with my family because it makes me exhausted, I have a really bad phobia of even doing school, I used try and beg my mum to stay off of days because I was scared if failure, bullys, now I'm doing online school, and I don't even go to the lessons, and I'd kinda prefer to drop out and work on something better in life.
    Any advice?

      Hey!
      Before I say anything else, it’s great your asking for advice. Feel free to comment back.
      So it’s really important that you understand that I made a mistake dropping out.
      It was a necessity and a culmination of a lot of different things happening in my life but I wouldn’t recommend it.
      You’re 14, and dropping out isn’t a possibility nor should it be on your radar.
      I’d you’re being bullied my heart goes out to you, that’s awful.
      I would recommend a few things:
      - confide in a teacher who you are close to how you feel. If you’ve got a pastoral head, even better.
      - have a conversation with your parents and be honest
      - don’t be hard on yourself
      - get as much help as you can
      Always here for support if you need it 🙏
