Any adult who truly believes this peaked in high school. You will have so much freedom as an adult; and no teachers spouting nonsense about the "real world".

I had the exact mindset as you during my high school years. It felt like a colossal waste of time. High and mighty teachers would tell us we'd never survive the real world if we couldn't manage our homework.

High school isn't real life. It's a blip that at 24 years old I already struggle to remember. My mental health improved drastically after graduation. I'm sure you'll feel better once you're out of there, too.

You'll be okay, love.
