<p>I know I'm not the only one who's had a breakdown.
I lead a stressful life already, so when my World Religions teacher told me (top of my class!) to redo the graphic organizer outline i spent hours doing for a Second time (i went to him 3 days before it was due and he told me to write bigger, which i did) because it was unacceptable since the edges got torn, and then proceeded to lecture the class about how if you were told your paper was unacceptable you are a disrespectful slacker, I had a breakdown. because not only did i have to redo those 2 chapters' worth, i'd already done the next assignment ahead and it seemed like i'd have to redo that chapter too. add that to the stress of a super-stresser, and i was late to drama because the teacher was trying to calm me down. sheesh./and i've only been in school for 7 days... oh boy</p>
<p>Not looking for sympathy here, just giving a place to vent for anyone else who can't take it when it all becomes too much.</p>
<p>some girl in my school was having a panic attack because her ex was spreading rumors about her . & the ambulance had to come & she went to the hospital</p>
<p>but i know how you feel.. i've never actually cried in class b/c of a teacher & stress but ive came reallly close. sometimes when youre having a bad day & its like one of those days like "if anyone says another thing to me im going to freak out" it was like that & i was holding back my tears. The only time i cried is when i broke up with my bf of 11 months.</p>
<p>I think I've cried in class but I can't really remember. It wasn't full blown crying, but I have definitely cried in front of teachers in their offices or something. Just not in front of the class.</p>
<p>alright, this is how past valedictorians commit suicide in college. You need to man up or something very wrong will happen in the future. I know you put all that effort into it and everything, but maybe if you're a little more flexible and don't concentrate so much effort on a single thing..... I know I sound kinda dumb but yeah, school is stressful enough, you need to be the one giving stress at home, not the one stressing out over everything</p>
<p>Life is not fair. You are going to have teachers and bosses for the rest of your liife that are going to make you do stupid things. Get used to it.<br>
Being top of your class is no big deal. 10 years from now it won't matter one bit, so chill out and relax a little. Don't stress over trying to get perfect grades.. they don't matter in the real world, just how smart you work.</p>
<p>a girl in my school started to cry like hell when she found out that she got an F on her French test. The teachers response was unexpected but I liked it..she told her to pipe down (in a nicer way) and told her that crying won't get her anywhere. She tried to calm her down like 15 minutes later..I kind of felt sorry for her.</p>
<p>I've cried in school. It got me out of a 50 minute block of math. It was pretty random and hormonal - I had one of those "What the hell am I working so hard for here" moments. </p>
<p>Numbers and letters are never going to define who I am. If I can't finish an assignment, it's a reflection of personality and choice (I prioritize sleep and sanity over busy work), not because I'm an irresponsible, horrible failure. </p>
<p>I personally think your teacher's expectations are ridiculous. When you're doing this kind of work, are you really learning?</p>
<p>I was on the verge, like a few tears in 7th grade. My math teacher was strict as anything and she literally never checked anyones homework but mine. And she checked mine for every single problem. One time i didn't feel like doing the work so i copied the answers out of the back of the book and she started screaming at me about how lazy that was and i will never amount to anything..and i stoped paying attention after the first minute..but you get the point.</p>
<p>I haven't cried in school since elementary school (I threw tantrums like no other). I have had moments when I wanted to cry, and tears were pretty close to falling, but I managed to regain my composure just in time.</p>
<p>I cried once when I kind of took too many headache pills, had PMS, had a "friend" backstab me, and had the one guy I was depending on at the time not show up all in the same day.</p>
<p>I never cried in high school, but in middle school I had a few tears after watching some super sad movie in english. I never cried but I couldnt really help it and it wasnt a "full blown cry" it was a passive tear that ran down my face.</p>
<p>There was another time in elementary school when I cried, but it was my last day in 5th grade, and most of the class (or at least the girls, anyway) were crying.</p>
<p>I didn't cry in class. I held it until i got out of the classroom, and then just blew up. I cried for the longest time, and kinda loud. It was really embarassing and i hate remembering it. It was awkward aroung the people who were with me at the time for a few days after. My cry is really ugly, I have these sort of air hiccups, and I had red poofy eyes for two periods after.</p>
