I'm getting so fvcking worried about my future that I can't find any enjoyment in anything. I have no idea where I want to go to college, I'm behind in school right now, trying to get this screenplay finished, my drawings skills better and maintain my sanity and will to live. This sucks so much dick that I'm getting so damned stressed out from such a stupid fvcking thing as school. I personally don't think school is my thing but as soon as I say that this forum labels me a piece of sh!t who deserves to dig holes the rest of his life because he doesn't enjoy sitting in a classroom all day. I don't hate knowledge and learning, I just hate school. (Sigh) I'm so fvcking stressed I don't know what to do.

dude, the exact same thing is happening to me. your not alone, my HS senior year is sucking big time
 

You're still in high school. Take a deep breath, try to relax, and realize that no one likes school when they've been doing the same thing for 11 years. Go on a trip, visit some colleges, and if you decide that it's for you, then apply. If you don't, then you'll probably end up cleaning floors or making sandwiches for the rest of your life, or until you go to college.

Sorry; that's the way life is. If you go to college, you'll most likely get a well-paying intellectually-based job. If you never do anything after high school, the best you can do is a low-skill, low-pay job. But if that's your thing, go for it!

Woooah, slow down there. First off, High School isn't that big of a deal. Just do your work, relax and do your best. Second off, don't be in a big rush to go to College, you'll end up resenting it and wasting your money. You're young, young and have you're whole life ahead of you. Take some time. Have fun. Work. Party. Whatever. Don't stress about it.

I'm going back to University after taking 5 years off. I couldn't be happier. I'll finish and start my career. I'm not worried at all.

I went through the same thing in college, just keep your head up, and try going to school with a new attitude, this makes the difference, take small things in class and figure out, in depth, y this certain thing happened, make your self do that and you will then find what you really want to do

To get back on track, you'll have to work your a$$ off but if you want to survive the rest of the year, fix it now, wether it requires switching to an easier version of the course, like from honors to regular classes. Otherwise, work hard everyday and there is a weekend coming up, work your a$$ off in that too. Talk with some of your teachers in private and tell them you want to get an A, and you're behind right now asking for advice what to do.

After you try the stuff the other people have told you you could go get some new clothes. I'm not saying that you need em badly or anything, how would I know, but get some stuff that makes you feel good. You'd be surprised how different the school day is when you're confident. Even a little thing such as how you think you look can make a big difference. Just a suggestion. =)

Sounds like you need some ass. It helps with stress. Takes your mind off things for awhile.

I second that, don't let yourself start smoking or becoming violent. How often do you get outside? many times this stress results from not enough physical exercise and being inside all day.

I really thought about the military but I think that'd just make me more miserable. I really like the idea of military but I don't think I'd be able to do it.

If you don't think you'll be able to do it, they will make you think you are able to do it.

Bro, school ain't sh!t compared to the real word. Try being responsible for the actions of 11 people, managing a sales department that sells over 60 mil a year, plus fabrication and design, plus being the regional manager for the entire northeast, plus the normal everyday stuff you do. If anything goes wrong, it is your fault if it is or not.

I'd cut off my left nut with a spatula, pickle it in vinegar and eat it for a chance to be back in high school again.

Why not? I mean c'mon, you're really limiting yourself here! What is something that you ACTUALLY like doing? You can't just sit on your ass all day after high school. You need to either go to college where you'll experience more academia, go to the military, where you'll be doing hard labor all day every day, but you'll have a guaranteed job forever, or you can flip burgers and get $6.75/hr. for it.

Take your pick. Sorry...we can't all just play computer games all day.

What kind of chance? 50%?

I know the real world must be insanely tough and that's why I'm panicking so much.

I'm on the verge of a breakdown and I don't see my psychologist for another week or two.
