Ok soooo todayyyy was not a good day. At school, during block 3+4, our teacher introduced a game for the class. It's called "Talking Points" on jackbox. This game would be fun, but my class is not that good of a class. So you would be in groups of 3-4 and head in front of the class to present a speech by looking at 3 pictures, and you had to create a story with it. Then, during your speech people could either click the like button or dislike button. But the things was, clicking on either button will give the presenters more points, and my class didn't want the presenters to get good points bc they wanted them to feel bad about getting lower points, so no one clicked on anything. And people just got low points every time. My group was chosen last, and there's 2 people in my group who are more shy I guess, but they only said like 1 sentence, then we had to wait 40 seconds for the slide to end, cuz we weren't allowed to skip. It was so awkward and no one was clicking the thumbs up or thumbs down arrow at the end we go a pretty low score... and when the trophies were handed out, someone created a "bad" award and gave it to my group? That was honestly really mean and ik bad isn't really an offensive word but it really just ruined my day since I'm more of a sensitive person. 🙁

Along with that, we started drama, where you had to go upstage and perform skits and things. I have huge stage fright, and last time I had to perform a skit, it was really awkward. We have drama every Wednesdays so I have it tomorrow, but I REALLY don't want to do it 🙁 Plus the drama class I'm in has random people, and all my friends are in different classes, only 1 friend is with me. Every time we do perform skits there must be 3-4 people and it feels really embarrassing having to find groups and ask people since that's never really been a problem for me 😐

And lastly, there's this guy in my class. He is honestly one of the rudest people I've ever seen. He insults people and once even hacked in to my classmates school account as started texting on it. Sometimes he just says really rude things to everyone and when it's towards me I just find that really offensive.

Ok tysm if you read everything and I hope you're doing well either at school or not 🙂 I'm happy to hear any recommendations from others 🙂

I'm so sorry to hear about this!! If it makes you feel better, you're not the only one having a rough day. My two best friends are kind of feuding over prom and I'm stuck in the middle. I also have a panic disorder, so my brain is trying to tell me I'm not going to be ok because of my friends fighting and that's exhausting to deal with. I do have a few tips though that have worked for me.

1. This is going to sound cheesy, but when I have a rough day (or a few in a row) I like to just focus on little things that go right. Maybe someone said "hi" to you today, or you ate something really good! It could also be something like "I made it through the day today!" (sometimes that's what I have to tell myself). Sometimes when I focus on those little things it makes me feel a little better

2. Unwind. Do something for YOU for 15 min, whether it be doodling, listening to music, or whatever makes you happy!! This definitely makes me feel busy, but being in two sports at once makes it hard for me personally to do. Hopefully you can!!

3. This one is a little weird (and maybe a bit dramatic haha), but it's something my therapist taught me. Take a sheet of paper and just write EVERYTHING that is making you feel upset or angry or causing you to panic. Don't hold back because no one is ever going to read it. Once you are done, destroy the paper somehow (flush it, shred it or burn it up). Personally, I think setting it on fire feels the best and once it's out of sight, you usually feel better (my family has a firepit outside and I do it there).

Hope this helps. Here's to better days for the both of us 🙂 🙂
P.S. That guy in you class absolutely sucks!! I hate those kind of people and have some choice words regarding them 😉
