I go to a good full-time ballet school but feel like I'm not good enough. I'm flexible and have a good jump, beats and adage.not so good at pirouettes, usually a triple with a hop. My teacher hates me and I don't know why, I know not to take criticism and corrections to heart but she says I'm stupid and lazy and I don't think I am. She doesn't cast me in performances and then will tell me I'm too fat in front of all my classmates. She's stopped me from doing partnering because she says I'm too heavy for the boys to lift. I weigh 55kg, she didn't believe me when I told her that I'm trying to eat well, an achievement for me as I've had bulimia. there are heavier girls in my class but she doesnt seem to care about them being lifted. My classmates all agree that she's really hard on me and it's unfair. I don't know what to do. I'm thinking of just giving up, she makes everyday misery. I can't talk to any other teachers, they'll tell her. I'm scared I'm wasting my life. What should I do?
