Technically its an alternative high school so the people attending are 18 and older. I decided I wanted to finish high school because I value my education. It's the night before school and I have weird emotions and thoughts running through my head. I thought about the commitment I made and I thought about how much I'm gonna miss doing whatever I want to do and not having to stick to any schedule. I thought about saying "**** it" and not go at all. I'm gonna really miss my freedom.......but then again, it would be freedom to do mostly nothing. I have been diagnosed with major depression and agoraphobia and I spent many of my teenage years as a recluse, away from people, and now I'm gonna be surrounded by them. I'm gonna have to communicate and work with them and thinking about that puts me on edge. It's weird, I used to think that I miss having friends but when I think about going back to school I can't picture myself wanting to make friends. I'm so used to being a loner, it's comfortable to me. At times I ran away from my problems, ( like dropping out of high school, leaving a different "alternative" school, and leaving a treatment center I entered early) and I must break this habit. I need to prove to myself that I am smarter and stronger than I was as a recluse.

I wish you luck with your endeavors....I know dealing with agoraphobia can be challenging...but getting your diploma will really mean something to you. take care.

It's been almost a week since I started school and I'm doing fine. I like my teachers and the staff at the school. I like the students. Now I just have to keep up the good work and keep my sanity. lol

I started going back to an adult ed high school when I was 20. I found that adult school was so much better than regular high school in every way. Wish you all the best so punk rock! Glad things are going well for you so far
