Highschool advice?
I know I sound fucking stupid and there are millions of websites on which I can look up advice, but I feel super comfortable in this community. I recently started high school and Im worried and uncertain about a lot of things. I want to know if high school is as horrible as people say it is. I'm just finding myself obsessing over everything, how I look, how my grades are, how people see me. I feel like it's not very healthy and all. I am genuinely curious about how much my grades really matter and how important is my image. I also want to know about everyone's experience.
I'm sorry my english his not so goog but I wanted to respond. I'm Canadian and I graduate in 1995! I think that you will be influenced by the country where you're studing and of course, youre personal history. I have good grades in primary and wanted to do the same in highshcool. The first year was tough to adaptated... I think that in primary and ...... reply

I was constantly moving so I never got to maintain steady friends. In some of my schools I was popular, others I tried being smart (but always cheated off of someone wtf), and others I just went unnoticed. I can honestly say that while grades are SO important, take time to make friends. There will always be bullies where ever yo...... 2 reply
Just know that at the end of the day when yall graduate - everyone - I MEAN EVERYONE is IRRELEVANT! Youll move on with your life and live your life while they live theirs, so just know that who cares what other people thing about you, thats how i spent my last year and its true. even going into post secondary if i see one person from my hs in my co...... 1 reply
TBH, I'm not the best person for giving advice on this topic.
I was an outcast of all the outcast. Very literally, and very seriously.
I was too shy to join any groups, doesn't have great conversational skills, my interests were so out of the 'normal' that I wasn't interested in any of the activities, and I was too afraid to make friends. Ther...... reply
Just be yourself and don't overthink, you'll regret that in the long run. High school will be the best and worst years of your life. Just be you and enjoy as much as possible. Be kind and love always! :) reply
I am in my second year in university, so I finished highschool relatively recently. Generally, I would say don't follow the highschool doesn't matter bla bla stuff, because it is still part of your life and you will make many important decisions and make friends for life. I went to highschool with some people from my primary school (we go to primar...... reply
I’m months from graduation so I’m pretty close in your age, and it may depend on where u attend hs, but these four years are yours and what u make of them. there’s important things like please, please don’t get lazy and stay on top of your grades. we live in a grade driven society, so they will be the most important even when u feel like a ...... 1 reply
I haven’t been in high school for about 4 years, and I know this will be a little short (ooops jk), but one thing that always helped me in high school was to keep a positive view point. I know it can be really hard with all of the stresses of looking good, getting good grades, and having good friends. It has always helped me throughout high schoo...... reply
Till high school i didn't have a lot of friends at school and i remember being very nervous because i thought i would be jugded a lot harsher i guess and be even more lonely when i start high school. My older cousins would talk about how they were hanging out with like 9 people and i thought that was very out of my comfort zone and i 100% wouldn't ...... 1 reply
Graduated high school a few years ago here. I was never popular, never trendy, and for the first two years, I felt completely alone. And now, in the real world, I can say that NONE of it matters now. Your image in high school means jack shit in the real world. No one cares if you were the star quarterback or head cheerleader; what matters is the sk...... reply
