Worst Year?

[Megson]

My worst year in school BY FAR was seventh grade.

First off, my family had moved towards the end of 6th grade to a new school district. I wasn't really adjusting well to the whole thing. My grades suffered and I left 6th grade with my first F ever, and two Ds. In 7th grade, my grades still weren't looking so hot.

I had very few friends. I didn't fit in. I felt so alone.

I was taking medicine for my ADD, which ruined my appetite every day. Sadly, I used this to my advantage and kinda developed and eating disorder. I wanted to lose weight so badly, because I wanted to fit in at this new place. I almost never ate. I think on most days, all I ate was a very meager dinner. That went on for a year and a half.

Also, 7th grade was the first year I cut. I can't even remember if there was an exact reason or if it was just my breaking point. I was always unhappy, no one understood me, and there was so much going on in my life. Cutting seemed to help out, somehow...

There's probably a lot more I could add, but some of it is too personal or just something I can't think of off the top of my head. But I'm in tenth grade now, and I've gotten over my ED, I've stopped cutting, and I quit taking my ADD medication. There's still a few issues in my life right now, but I'm a lot happier now than I was back then, that's for sure!!

Anyone want to share your stories? What has been or is your worst grade level/year ever?

Year 9 (8th/9th grade - I was 14) was probably the worst year. It was the start of my bullying, the start off my self harming and mental issues. The year I lost some very close people to me. Since then I guess theres been problems on and off, which haven't been easy to get over. Some of those issues still affect me today.

6th grade (but soon to change to 9th) I was new and picked on and only 12

[Jess]

none of my years were bad...but I guess 6th grade wasn't the best. I had just moved

[Aubrie]

probably 8th-9th

A lot of bad things happened those years that I'd rather not post about just yet ha.

For me it was 6th - 8th grade.
I remember when sixth grade finally rolled around. I remember riding the bus to school with all my friends on the first day of being in middle school. Joking around saying "we have achieved greatness!" (in retrospect, I think NOW I've officially achieved greatness because I'm a Senior :P) Anyways, the first month of middle school was pretty legit. I adjusted to the whole "different teachers, passing time between classes etc.. pretty fast.
But then we moved. One month into the school year and we moved. I was upset because this meant: New school, new people, new house, and most importantly I was going back to freakin' grade school! (the new school didn't have middle school until 7th grade) I was uprooted from everything and everyone I ever knew.
People in my new school were so stuck up and conceited. You know how most of the time kids will go up and socialize with a new kid? Yeah they never did that to me.. Eating lunch at a table by myself that first day was a kick to my self-esteem. It was rough. In my old school, I was pretty popular. And here, I was nothing.
Well from here on (until 9th grade) you can pretty much guess what happened next. I was a complete social outcast. Very few friends, I dressed in mostly black, hardly ever spoke; which actually gave me a little speech impediment that to this day I still slightly have. I was a very ragged looking kid, not too many people liked me, even teachers.
I didn't cut or do any suicidal activities, but I did start smoking, and to this day I still do. That was a very dark moment in my life that I'm glad is over. I finally snapped out of it during my fFreshman year. Then I moved again before Sophomore year. I'm still not popular or anything here (and I honestly don't have any desire to be) But I dress like a prep (I've been told :P) And I have a small group of friends. Funny thing about this school is that I can talk to pretty much anyone! Whether they'd be jocks, preps, outcasts, skaters, gamers, and whatnot. But I'm not popular. But eh, I'm happy with it :D
Sorry for my life story haha

9th grade definatly. I was 12 almost 13 and was youngest in my school. It f-ing sucked. Got thrown into a trash can while my 'friends' just walked by once and another time a girl I liked said I was to tall and odd and needed mental help.
In sophmore year I got more popular and now I'm a senior and its pretty damn good finally, got a great boyfriend and I think this year's gonna blow.

[screamtobeheard]

In all honesty, I'm going to assume it was either 6th, 7th, or 8th grade, as I've completely blocked out those memories, and I normally only block out bad memories. I don't remember middle school at all. I'm not even kidding.

But as far as I can remember, sophomore year (10th grade) was my worst. I hated all my classes and nearly everyone in my school (not that I like them now). My sports were stressful and unpleasant. I was bullied. I was depressed. I cut myself. I started starving myself. Yeah, that's definitely the worst year in my memory.

[christcenteredlife]

this is my senior year and it's tough. i'm having a hard time making many choices they are asking us to because i 14 and not at the point i can make them. plus, the younger class men have started teasing me and i've had to ask the bigger guys to back me.

[Modus Operandi]

9th grade fucking sucked. Got into a relationship with someone I later (after she broke up with me for no reason) learned was a massive bitch. Hated everyone. Everyone hated me. Shitty times, man.

Though 10th grade was a lot better after I learned to take shit a bit less seriously.

7th grade by far

I was always an A student UNTIL seventh, and that's when I started getting C's, D's and F's.

I had a teacher who really shouldn't have been a teacher. She lost our firkin tests, so we got NO credit whats so ever for something I studied for!

My prinicple was a pompous ass, who thought highly of herself.

I let my grades slip

I had a friend who always started drama. She constantly put me down, and told lies about me behind my back. This 'friend' would make me feel guilty to do something, and if things didn't go her way she'd get mad. If I hung out with my best friend without her, she got mad. If I or anybody else didn't do what she wanted, she'd accuse us of being mean. She use to make comments about my weight, like 'Woah there, you just shook the bench' amd then she'd laugh. Some of the days, i refused to eat my lunch or anything at all. I hate her so much now.

Some of my 'friends' would send me home crying, because they'd put me down and make fun of me. They'd also make fun of my weight too (My doctor says I'm fine in terms of weight apparently...but because of them, I would always see myself as a balloon when I looked in the mirror) the only friend (my best friend) I could trust was always picked on by them too.

I started cutting (I stopped after 7th)

Arguments with my family

I'm in 8th grade now, and I've shed everything from 7th. The school, the friends (well, except for one. But, when she's by herself she's nice) my grades are good so far too, and I'm happy.

That's a difficult question actually. I want to say year 10. Apart from the shit that had happened to me at the time (that was the year I was raped, still cutting for two years, had been slipping into anorexia, and was doing drugs) I was just so stressed and on-edge. I'd do anything to get out of school. I faked a migraine one day, actually forced myself to vomit so I could go home. I did that type of stuff all the time. Then I was actually taken out of school some days for mental breakdowns, one of them which had an effect that made me crack: the mental breakdown made me miss a vital musical rehearsal and I was kicked from the production. I was so out of it after that, because acting is one of my coping mechanisms. I'm really happy when I'm doing that. And I closed the year with a visit to the hospital.

Year ten, (14/15) I had been bullied for a year before that. But this year got worse and worse I often found myself alone or seriously depressed. I cut myself off from the world and I honestly hated every second of school.

[Magenta]

Almost all of them. I was bullied so much that I never had a year of peace. Ninth grade was good until I started getting really depressed and moved, etc. Something always ended up happening that would put a damper on the entire year. Tenth was a nightmare for sure.

[ShadowGirl]

8th grade for sure. My best friend had just moved away so I spent the majority of the year by myself. I was the lame kid who sat alone at lunch. Plus, we moved up to the junior high so I had to deal with switching classes all the time.

[anonymous53]

9th Grade was by far the worst. It was my breaking point. The epitome of the bullying which ended up in me attempting to commit suicide.

All of them before it sucked as well.
