Move schools. Make new friends.
Independent schooling. You meet with a teacher once a week for an hour. Do work at home. You can stay at home without all the bullshit
Hey, I know how you feel cause I went thru some of the same stuff when I was in high school. To be honest, high school is just shitty. But if you finish it and get your diploma, so many options will be available for you in the future. I struggled with depression and suicidal thoughts in high school. But soon after I got my diploma, I started going to college to get my degree. I am now a junior at my university and I have so many options for my life. I'm not much older than you; I graduated high school in 2014, and I going to graduate in 2018 with my bachelors degree. So I just really want to say, please don't give up. Please.
Don't jeopardize your life like that. You're responsible for your own happiness.
I heard it takes 28 days to break a habit. So you know all those school work that's piled up after you neglect them? Well forget them. Whatever half ass shit you left, either finish them or discontinue them. If you're not gonna continue, it's basically done right? Do this for 28 days, don't make it a waste of my time writing this for you.
Always, always, always finish your shit there and then. You finished dinner? Wash your plates the next moment. You spilled your drink? Wipe it off right now. You suddenly remembered that assignment? Stop what you're doing and do it now. Little by little, there's an end. That way you won't stress out about it later.
You ain't gonna get far if you give in all the time and curl up in your room while you watch helplessly as your life crumble before your eyes. That's self destruction right there. There IS a solution, you're just too lazy. You find countless excuses, blaming it all on depression and your lack of will to live. Go take a fucking walk, see the trees, the sun, the mountains and appreciate how you're here right now, and how you can experience this. You're basically dead already if you don't expand your mind and experience new things. You don't have to be a successful surgeon or a fucking engineer because what's the point if you ain't happy?
You also can't always expect someone to give you motivation every time you feel like you wanna die. You have to go look for that purpose yourself. It's your own fucking life. Don't be such a spoiled brat.
You know why you have friends like that? It's cuz you're like this. Nothing's gonna change if you don't BE the change.
Look it's easy reading all these shit behind a computer screen, giving you comfort as if you're more capable than what you are now. But it's only false hope if you don't actually do it.
You're overthinking and you should change your perspective. High school is not something to feel pressured about. You don't have to finish your homework perfectly, just get it done, hand it in as long as you can understand, nobody gives a shit about the presentation. Let the teachers suffer while reading them, it's their job. All these won't matter in a few years.
You can save this and print it out or however method you wish so you won't forget it so easily. 28 days. Good luck.

No. Honestly, for each person depression is different. This is how I had viewed my friend with depression and let me tell you, this is definitely not how it works. They are not "too lazy" or "making excuses." I recommend you look more into what depression actually is before trying to give advice about it. To original poster, you can make it through, I believe in you. I have had friends go through depression and trust me, it takes time but most of the time everything will work out. If you feel what woof said is what you need to get back on your feet, great. My advice is similar, but please note, none of it is your fault, or just an "excuse." Yes, of course, doing things right then and there is the easiest way to relieve the stress you feel. However, it's obviously not that easy. I would start by talking to your teacher. Let her know about your depression. Ask if you can stay in her classroom for about 30 minutes every day after school has ended (most teachers wait a bit before going home because they still have some work to do) and just work on your homework in the classroom. Your teacher will be convienantly nearby, and also this shows that you truly are dedicated and trying hard to overcome your depression. Most teachers will be super supportive, you just have to let them know what you're going through. Forget about the fact that you're behind. Honestly, the most important thing is talking with your teacher. They will sit with you for hours if that's what you need to catch up. Teachers are truly there for you if you let them know you need them. Good luck :) let me know how it goes.
I think we all agree that whatever happens, make sure to finish schooling. It'll be harder for you in the future if you don't have a high school diploma. If I were you, I would try to take a step back and distance myself from these "friends". I often enjoyed hanging out in the library reading everything there. Also, it's sometimes just better getting everything out. Talk with your parents. Sadly, they're not mind readers! If that's too hard, I recommend talking with a school counselor.
You should definitely talk to your parents, your doctor or a school councillor. Prolonged depression is not something where you can just pull yourself up by your bootstraps. If this has been going on for more than a few weeks or especially months there will be actual changes in your brain chemistry. The sooner you treat your depression the quicker and more likely you will be to recover from it. I was untreated for years from a young age and it has taken me a long time to get where I am. Especially be kind to your self. Self criticism will only make you feel worse. But most importantly, that help! :)
i know this isn't the right place to say this but i don't know where i can tell someone about this. I'm 18 years old, lately i've been so lazy to go to school, so i did, for couple days a week, whenever i come to school, my classmate will ask "why you are absent"? "you know the teacher is mad because you are absent' this make it harder for me to go school, when i was at home, i cried a lot, and had a depression although my family never knew cause i just cooped up in my room for days. i also have no true friend, i just have fake friend that talk shit behind me, jeez this is hard for me, i always think that should i quit school? what should i do with my life , anyways if you are reading this, thank you...
