Reply from Ropati, Age 15 - 12/12/10 - IP#: 216.67.62.xxx Hey you, don't think that way. Yeah it's tough being overweight but that's not worth your life. Whenever you think about killing yourself again, think about the people that you're leaving behind. That always works for me. Yes, I have also thought of killing my self as well, and thinking about my loved ones always stops me from doing so. If you can't talk to your parents then talk to a close friend about your rpoblems, or use the online chat on this website. About the people that tease at school they're stupid, dumb, and don't have anything else better to do then to make fun of somebody that they know won't fight back. I remember my fifth grade year, when a group of boys were teasing me about the way i looked. Then my gym teacher came out and heared everything they said, and you know what he said? he said, "Don't you fellas have anything else better to do?" "You know, if i were you, i wouldn't be making fun of this kid" Then on of the boys said, "Why?" in response he said, "Because if you get in a fight with somebody twice you size, wouldn't you want a person like him on your side?" All in all, don't take yourself for granted. As long as we're on the subject, why did you drop out of school because of your weight? I'm sorry but that's the most dumbest excuse that I've ever heared. The only reason people drop out of school is if they're pregnant, or got somebody pregnant. Other than that, you have no real excuse to have dropped out. I live in Anchorage, Alaska and my current weight is 400 pounds. I'm in the nineth grade and lovin it. I have wonderful friends that i know will never do anything to hurt me. If you have those kind of friends, go n hang out with them. Do something or go somewhere to get your mind off things. If you have an outdoor porch, go out on it at night n just look up at the stars and wonder.
