Today at school, people were teasing me about being emo. And I knew that I looked like one a lot. I had the haircut, the clothes, and a cut on my wrist. They said that my hair looked weird and then it somehow got into a conversation of them calling me emo and teasing me. I didn't take any action, I just sat there, without saying anything. Eventually they stopped and I went back to doing my work. On the inside I wanted to yell at them: "You have no idea how much it hurts when your depressed and have to fricking put on a corny smile everyday for the rest of your life when on the inside it hurts!!!!!!" And they will always have no idea. They will never understand the life you have to live when you have depression and are suicidal.

I hope tomorrow is a better day for you hun.

Sometimes people can be so insensitive without realising. But you're right, unless you've experienced depression & suicidal thoughts it's incredibly hard to understand.

So sorry about that xXWhyXx.

I'm sorry your hurting so much. I wish I could make the pain go away. Hopefully tomorrow will be better for you. It took a lot for you to not yell back and get in a battle with them. That shows how mature you are. And it show how immature they are!

That's an amazing display of self-control! You didn't feed the trolls, and they left, probably hoping to find a more compliant victim.

I'm so sorry you had to endure that. Scratch the "had" - you shouldn't have to endure such treatment.

I'm sorry too!! I honestly like the emo look. It's nice really..emos have a nice cooridinated way of dressing. Much better than many people I see with long shirts, pants without a belt (and bad looking boxers might I add LOL ), and the like.

And don't worry about the hair. You want it like that, you keep it like that.

Please ignore those people. They don't get it and they are wasting their time hurting the feelings of one who does not deserve it (you!). Shame on them.

Lol, personal story. My friend thought I looked emo one day, black jacket, hood over my head, etc. Ugh, it stuck on, he called me emo all the time. But I didn't care. I just laughed and took it as a joke. I digress lol.

I agree w/ rohag though! Good for you for having self-control! It's understandable that you are angry at them (and who wouldn't be!), but you did a good thing, and I am happy for you!
And yes, blowing up on them has reverse psychology. You seem like more of a victim. It's annoying...it just shows the immaturity of people. :|

Take care xxwhyxx, and keep on posting!!!!!!!!
Have a good day tomorrow!!

I hated highschool.. never fit in, was always an outcast teased made fun of..

But those loosers who teased me back then look back at highschool as the best time of their lives, how sad, to live for so many years and from the time they were 18 it was all down hill from there.

I look back at highschool as a painful experience that I didn't want to endure but I had to.. and my life sense then has had many ups and downs, but I still have opertunity to improve the best of my life is still out there, I don't have to spend my life living in the past like they do...

One day at a time, if you can get through this your life will still be a struggle, but it won't be over.. for so many of the jerks who walk the halls with you that is it for them.. once they get out of highschool they will spend the rest of their life reliving the past beause that is all they have all they will ever have..

Better to be able to move past a painful part of in your life, than to be trapped forever in a lie..
