It always is a little awkward going into high school and as a freshmen. Everyone loves to pick on the freshman because they're new in the high school. The people in your classes that seem "cool" are probably also trying to fit in. That's what happens in high school, everyone tries to fit in and be cool like everyone else so they blend in. I'm a junior now, being a freshman was the worse but as you go through the years, it'll get easier. Just remember that there are other people that are also struggling with these problems and they'll understand. Maybe switch to other classes that you feel more comfortable in? I took that route. Also, yes. The word "fag" will be used plenty of times! They're teenage boys also trying to fit in, so what other way would they possibly try to fit in? They name call and pick on people to give themselves satisfaction or confidence. I made myself sick plenty of times to send myself home, in the long run you will regret it. I was in high school to do my work, get it done, and get good grades. Once you're out of high school you have that options to never see these people again, so don't get too caught up in them.Anyway, things will get better and level out. It's a new start and it's always bumpy at first. If you would like to talk about it more, feel free to message me whenever. I'll be happy to listen. :)
