Struggling

Deleted User

Hi I hope everyone had a good Christmas and New year Slight smile

I'm struggling at the moment

School has started again and I'm really struggling with it

The lessons are really hard and everyone's horrible to me because of the autism they call me a retard and laugh at me because I'm ugly.

I have school again tomorrow, which sucks but I guess I've got to go.

Does anyone here have any coping strategies which will help me deal with the bullies and hard lessons? If you do that would be great Slight smile

  • I'd say this is the first step to fixing the problem though, is understanding this and why.

    Example: I knew a guy who we all thought was the most annoying human on the planet because he would argue everything. Sometimes he would argue just to argue seemingly. "I like peanut butter-jelly sandwiches" he would respond about how they are not as healthy as X sandwich or that it had inefficient calories or something stupid. Nobody wanted to talk to him.

    Eventually when we got to college he realized this and stopped. I haven't seen him in a while due to COVID but he's a really smart guy and would be happy to catch up with him.

    This isn't to say to change your entire personality. But some things (like my friend's argumentativeness) are things you can work on that can fix a lot of these sort of social problems, IMO.

    Don't lose hope!
