I've been really sad lately. No one really understands me, like my mom always gets so mad at me for the smallest things and I feel like I can never talk to her about anything because she doesn't understand. And at school, I literally only have one friend. While the rest of the people who go to my school have fun I stay at home because no one ever talks to me/invites me to anything and I just feel like no one cares about me.
This is unfortunately that way the world rolls.
I am now 20 and had a horrible time at school.
I would have a bad day at school which now I see would make me super sensitive when I went home, and it would be like the world was against me!
What I learnt, and what I would love to teach anyone else with the same problem, would be take everything on the chin.
If people don't make the effort with you at school, it is honestly not the end of the world. When you leave school you will more than likely do so much better than all the people that stood around gossiping and making people lives awful!
Honestly, not being popular is probably one of the best things that ever happened to me!!!
I now have an amazing job, amazing friends and a great social life.
The more you dont let both you the more you will learn.
People are horrible, horrible people at times.
Just carry on being yourself and everything will be fine.
I know I don't know you, but you mum will understand, everyone has been in a situation like this at some point in their life, INCLUDING YOUR MUM! If they havent been on the receiving end of it, they have witnessed it. So she will understand, you are just feeling super sensitive , which I don't blame you for!
School is about 5% of your life, so 5% with horrible people, for 95% of your life doing what you want, when you want, with who you want.
It cant all be pink and fluffy :(
Just keep smiling, appreciate the friends you do have, and forget everyone else! You're better than them! :)
