Im 16 and im a freshmen. I got held back in 1st and 6th grade. But my parents dont count 1st grade. They always tell ppl im supposed to be a sophomore.

Well, ive had problems since middle school with bullying and having like social anxiety from bullying. My grades are all F's, and have been like that since 6th grade. I always stayed home because of this anxiety. And this year ive missed about 20+ days already. When im in class, I dont know if its because im lazy or anxious, or just thinking if someoens staring at me or what. They passed me through middle school because of my age. Even when I failed. I dont know what it is. I dont want to drop out!, Ive already failed this semester from having so many absences. And it ends in January. How can I not F**K up my life?

Have you talked to a counselor. Maybe you should. See if the counselor can have your teachers seat you in the back of the room so that you won't feel as if everyone is watching you. Report any bullying.

You need to take control of your life and not let others control you. Meet with your teachers individually and ask for help. Sounds like your parents are enabling your behavior if they let you stay home half of the quarter.

Join an after school activity. Try to make at least one friend.

Try night school if you're able to make up credits.

Good luck

Your grammar seems pretty good.except for that last sentence,and thats a good thing because it means the reason you're getting F's is because of your anxiety of being in class and not because you're stupid.
You need to remember that everyone gets bullied and these bullies dont just exist in schools.When you graduate or drop-out(whatever your choice),there's going to be bullies in the workforce and you need to learn how to deal with them in a civilized manner.Remember the real reson for school, you're not there to meet people or impress others by what you wear, you're there too learn, and prepare yourself for college.
Just stop worrying of what people think and try to work on your self-esteem, it's very important.Bullies usually pick on people that lack confidence.Just remeber droping-out isn't the easy way out like everyone says,if you drop out you're gonna have to work so hard for such little money, you most likely wont be happy.It's easier to work with your brain instead of busting your back.

First of all in all seriousness GET COUNSELING for your anxiety and maybe a prescription for it if you qualify. If your parents wont go for it then seek the help of your school counselor. Next evaluate yourself. Do you want to do better? Really? If so then get the work done. You will feel so much better once you do it. Also, try to find a friend. Start with one and build on it. You will be surprised at the results. Hope I've helped. Good luck!

whilst i became in college and that i've got been given grades like those, i found out i became focusing completely too lots on reading and not having adequate exciting. except you're attempting to get right into a precise college or artwork at some very elite organisation like Proctor & Gamble once you're a school student or get right into a precise med college, none of it extremely is actual going to remember once you get out of faculty. if it extremely is the case, all you're able to do is actual study no longer basic and get tutoring. comprehend that stepping right into a precise college or an elite occupation or attempting to artwork for a huge organisation that for the period of common terms takes the terrific of the terrific that that comes on the fee of exceptionally lots sacrificing each little thing else so which you additionally could make ideal grades. it is the alternative you will desire to make contained in the top.

It's good that you are concerned about your grades, and that's ridicilous that they passed you even if you failed. That's totally unfair to you, because even if you are too old, you still need to understand the material to be able to comprehend the next year's classes. I am so sorry that that happened to you.
Talk to your counselor if you're not too embaressed, and as lame as it might sound, you should maybe try special ed. it's not bad, and it's not because you are mentally retarted, it's just because you are so far behind in your schooling. you might not understand material since you were in 6th grade, and you need special attention for that, which the special ed. program will give to you. you just need to work hard and you can eventually, deffinitely by next year be back on track :-)

please, please, please don't drop out! our society doesn't need smart people like you to drop out because they gave up.
I can guarantee you that once you show some concern for your grades, things will pick up. don't thinkabout it everyday, all the time once you start doing your work and going to school. don't worry about it for a few months until your good grades can even out with your bad grades (like until you have a C because you started working hard)
for the social problems, maybe you should switch schools?? like a new, fresh start!

The first thing that you can do is to stop feeling sorry for yourself, and making excuses. You should not have been passed and shoved along. It did you no good. You are on a disaster course.

Start studying , get professional psychological help and see what rt YOU can do before you completely ruin your future.

You are the victim of a terrible school system. Where were your teachers in all this bullying? Hiding under their desks probably. And then there are male teachers who really get off (and I mean GET OFF) on seeing smaller boys bullied by bigger ones. Don't expect any help from your principal, he or she is clutching retirement in one hand and covering his/her butt with the other. Get your parents involved. Your problem has nothing to do with your ability, it is a failure of each and every one of your teachers and administrators.

Try a alternative school. Most cities have these for students who have problems emotionally. That effects the classroom. See if you can be tested it might be a learning disability. If its anxiety that is considered a emotional disability you are a minor someone has to help you.

Try a charter school, I don't know where you live, but charter schools usually have a smaller population. With a better teacher to student ratio.
