I agree. I'm a regular 11th grade student and even though I can't choose what I learn in school really, and even though I am also afraid to go to school bc it involves human interaction, it also helps me deal with my depression, which always gets worse when I'm in holydays. Don't know what this is, but sometimes I have this that I think depression has drained all energy and vigor out of me, and then I have to learn for a difficult test coming up, or have to choke myself to stay concentrated in class and the fact that I am forced to concentrate on the present and real life problems (even if they're as banal as a test) makes my mood enhance and keeps me from falling into total despair. It's not always like that but I think the benefits outweigh the disadvantages.
