Should i go back to school?

[misakideath]

I'm not good at English so if there is something wrong i will be sorry.
One year ago i dropt out of school,and now i'm back.But my depression haven't been cured,i'm always late for school.Just several hours ago my teacher called me and rebuked me.He said i should get out of his class.
I know i'm a bad student,i'm always late and my scores are low ,maybe i should go dead.But my family want me continue studying in school.
I really don't know what should i do,maybe i should suicide?

Listen, if your in a country that gives you the availability to get a GED, maybe you should take a break from school and go back in at a later date. You probably need to take a break from school if its causing you stress. Hope I could help.

I'm sorry,it is my first time to use this website and i mistake "report" to "reply",really sorry for this.
The country that i live in doesn't have GED,in fact i did not know what's GED before.(Can i say the name of the country that i live in?)

If you can't get a GED I would suggest dropping out. If its putting so much stress on you that you want to hurt yourself. Its not worth doing.

My family told me that the only way that i can get a job is studying in a university.If i drop out of school,can i get a job?If my depression will haven't been cured,can i hold on a job?I can't see any hope in my life,maybe the only way is suicide.

I don't want to give you a wrong advice, because you know the real details of the situation and how you really feel about school, but considering what you wrote I'm with our forum members that said maybe you should take a break if it causes you so much stress.
I feel like school is a burden for you right now and you're only going because you want to please your parents.
If it makes you unhappy take a break.

 

[Lance Stone]

It depends. You don't necessarily need to go to college to get a job. But depends like I said where you live and what factors into that.

Thank you,but i have rested for one year and i get nothing,my family said if i don't want to go to school i must go to work for myself.

Thank you,i live in China and the jobs are not easy to get.Because people that have university diploma are too many,and company usually don't use people like me(if i don't get a university diploma).If i go to the factory,the salary is pretty low,about2500￥(387$)a month. I don't know if i can hold on.

Do you know anyone your age who could advise you? As an American who is completely unfamiliar with China's university system and job market, I don't feel like I can offer good advice.

Over here, I would advise you to take more time off because it's much better to have a W (for withdrawal/drop out) on your record rather than failing grades.

Who is paying for your schooling? How dangerous are the factory jobs you said you can get?

Are you a school student or are you in further/higher education (college, university, etc)? I realise Americans use 'school' to cover all of these but I'm just wondering where you are.

If you're a high school student, you should try to graduate at least. But if you're in college or university, maybe it just isn't for you. Just because you're intelligent doesn't mean you're a good fit for academia. You should try to find what makes YOU happy because ultimately it's your life and you know yourself best.

Thank you for your reply,i don't know if the job in factory is dangrous or not,but my family have talked to me about my study.
They said it is better for me to cintinue studying in school.I was persuaded by them.
I will continue my study tomorow,and i will apologize to my teacher.

I'm a high school student,my family persuaded me and i will continue my study tomorrow.
Thank you for your reply.

You're very young to be considering suicide, though definitely not alone.

The 'good' news is that you have your life ahead of you and have no complications (kids, debt, bad marriage, etc). That said, you clearly have some issues to work on and it sounds as if your parents aren't very accommodating of those. I understand that at 18, that feels overwhelming because family and school can be your entire world if you have no good friends or passions.

It sounds as though most of your depression is situational and can be changed. You just need something to get you through this rough period.

Well buddy, I'm the same. People simply don't understand how much people off unprivileged countries depend on english. I'm a slavic, but 95% of what I read or write is english. It is the difference between living a miserable life at home, which a westerner can't imagine, or starting a whole different life somewhere US/UK/Canada/Australia/Ireland.

The gap is sometimes really big, but also really small. I consider low-paying jobs of course, can't have it better, I know. Education, connections etc only come with money. But I'd gladly be a cleaner in a Pittsburgh strip club, than just a piece of meat here, agonising.

I have no better advice than, either go head-on fully confident you will succeed, so to not let financial worries bother you, or wait until you have enough money. I know it may take years and why not a decade to do

I used to think about things like why i was not born in countries like Switzerland,but i have to accept the fact,although it's not good information for me.
