Hey @angriest_star I'm sorry to hear about what happened at school today 😔 it sounds like your friendships really changed over the holidays, and even if you expected it that doesn't make it any less difficult to process. The fact that your friends ignored your presence is incredibly hurtful and I can imagine how disheartening it would have been to try to be part of the group when they were acting like that. I remember in your post from earlier that you weren't sure why they stopped talking to you. Now that you are all in the same space, is there any way that you could ask someone about what has gone wrong? Even if you can't repair the friendship, it could help to get some closure and know what to do next.
I also noticed that you said that you felt okay about it during school and then when you got home you felt so sad. It can take time to process things like this and understand exactly what to do for yourself and the situation. I'm glad you're feeling calmer now and was curious to know what helped? Did it help talking to your mum about everything?
You mentioned that you don't know how to make new friends- I wanted to say that I'm really glad you connected on the forums so we could support you ❤️ Sometimes it can help to just look around at the people that are already near us, whether that be people who we play sport with or a classmate in a class you always see. Is there anyone you know, even if you only talk occasionally to them, that you could strike up a conversation about something with? Maybe you could talk about the holidays? We have a small piece here on making friends which could help too.
Feel free to come and talk to us anytime about what's going on 🙂
