My Highschool had 7 fights in the spam of one week, it was so bad that they had to start charging people for the amount of fights that happened.

Hi, guys! Thought some of you might find this interesting.

I was born with spina bifida (t11 myelomeningocele), as well as hydrocephalus and a Chiari II malformation. My SB is quite severe - I was born well over a decade after prenatal closure was first pioneered, and a little after it became the standard of care - however, as I’m a twin, it was never available to me.

As a result of my disability, I can’t move or feel any part of my legs, as well as my lower core muscles.

Feel free to ask me anything!

With school starting very soon, I feel really nostalgic. Despite the fact that I didn’t have the best high school experience, it just feels like… (idk how to describe it). Anyway good luck fellow seniors.

So tomorrow is orientation where all the freshman come to school like it's a normal day and I'm so scared right now. The thing is some of the kids I haven't seen since fourth grade are going to be there and I was a little of a troublemaker at my school and got suspended twice, and after I left that school, some kids have thought that I got kicked out even though I didn't. I've changed now, but I'm worried that everyone is going to start spreading rumors about me and making fun of me and stuff like that. I'm already an insecure kid and I have been cyberbullied online during homeschooling for 4 years, and I can't deal with that level of stress. I told my mom that I want ro socialize with other people or atleast make one decent friend, and my mom keeps telling me that I shouldn't want to socialize with anyone because I can't trust anyone, but she's also the same one who told me to compliment other kids next to my locker and make a good friend (wtf?). I'm not on the same level as everyone else and I haven't been able to do anything these past couple of years because learning for me is hard, and I'm skinny, so these other kids are probably going to be much more advanced and stronger than me. I've honestly thought of homeschooling again but that would be even more hard. I'm just looking for some advice for tomorrow. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

EDIT: I'm really scared right now. I probably won't even make a decent friend in high school

hey I’m a goner I’m starting high school tomorrow and I need something to cheer me up before I go to prison for the next 160 days any advice Reddit?

So this is my school districts second year of letting kids bring their own computers to school, and id say about half of the kids bring their own computer and dont use the school Chromebooks. I'm going to be a freshman this year and I want to bring my macbook as i really dont want to use the school Chromebook (for several reasons I'll get to in a minute) for context my laptop is the base model macbook pro. As for the reasons why I dont want to use a school Chromebook, I'm going to be in a video class, and if I bring my macbook i can use my preferred software and work on projects at home, also organization with my personal and school accounts, as well as a few more reasons. I have like a protective sleeve that I keep the computer in but im still unsure of whether or not I should bring it to school. I'm not concerned about dropping it or anything, but im worried that kids will be kids and something bad could happen. Since im gonna be a freshman I'm not sure how things are around people's stuff in highschool, in middle school it definitely wasnt the best, so im wondering if highschool is safer in that regard. Thanks!

(btw when I wrote this it was almost 2 in the morning so sorry if its not written well)

When I was 12, I was sitting with my friends beneath a large concrete block, and the girls in skirts were climbing on the bannisters. I randomly looked up, and a girl was stretching across to the other side and I accidentally saw up her skirt and saw her white, frilly knickers. I was so embarrassed and felt guilty.

• 2–3 regular pads — probably the most useful thing to carry at first. You can choose thin=/regular pads rather than anything super absorbent.
• An extra pair of underwear — put it in a small ziplock or reusable waterproof bag.
• Unscented wipes or tissues — useful for cleaning up.
• A small opaque/disposable bag — for wrapping a used pad or storing underwear until you can get home.
• Optional: a spare pair of shorts/leggings — especially if you're going to school or somewhere you can't easily get home.
• Optional: pantyliners — useful for discharge, but they're not necessary for an actual period.
• Pain relief — you don't need to carry medication unless your parent/guardian says it's okay ad you know how you're supposed to take it. If you eventually get cramps, an adult can help you choose an appropriate option.

My leg pain and cramps got worse after I got to high school. Sometimes the pain is so bad but my school doesn't allow sick leave for period pain and it hurts my attendance rate so I just have to bear with it and power through it, I cant even learn anything because I cant focus. Luckily my homeroom teacher is understanding and she lets me go home sometimes. My friend recommended me birth control pills to reduce the pain, I've never been on one and im worried about the side effects. How do you manage on your bad period days?
