First of all, I am very sorry to hear that you have been going through a really tough time whilst in school. Please know that things do get better!

Your life is extremely valuable, and it’s important that you keep on expressing yourself, be it online, to a person that you trust, or by seeking out support for yourself, to help get through the difficulties that you are facing.

Who you identify as should be respected, upheld and celebrated for you being true to yourself, which is an admirable quality. School can feel really awful when things are so tough, personally or mentally, so it is crucial that you take time out to find the right support to get you through these tough times.

Please know that your life is extremely important, and that there are people out here who care. I care about you, hence why I am commenting on your post. Your life is priceless, just like your self-worth, so please take care of yourself. School is not the be all, and end all in life, there are many great things to look forward to after you finish school.

Reach out to someone, and get yourself some support to help you along the way.

Thank you, Marz. I’m sorry if I was overdramatic, but I really have felt like there was no point in living before – not that I feel like that at the moment. Again, thank you for everything.
