I really need something uplifting.... I have various things that are upsetting me today that are very personal I need ideas/ support. Not doing well right now.....The main point is I'm considering suicide because of my instructor who made a big deal about my failure in their course.

It hurts to fail but it's different when your teacher makes fun of you and encourages awful behavior to your peers. And then they start to mock you.

I need something uplifting....anything.

I want to die it's so not worth this type of pain I should've done it long ago when my dad abused me. I'm not worth anything and I never was. Goodbye.

I'm so sorry you have to go through this. Teachers are supposed to be positively encouraging, and yet this teacher sounds like the worst. Don't let this teacher drive you to a dark place. Please don't harm yourself, cyndazzle1967 is right, it's not the answer. If you need someone to talk/vent to, please message me. I hope you're ok.

.Suicide has been called "a permanent solution to a temporary problem". Even if you can't change your situation you can change your outlook on the situation. Please talk to a trusted friend, family member or mental health care professional. Also don't leave out the power of prayer: "Throw all your anxiety on God, because he cares for you" 1 Peter 5:7

My heart hurts just reading your post! I'm so sorry you experienced mocking from your instructor and peers! We all fail at things and it's ok to fail. We learn from our failures. However, we also need support and love to help us through our failures. Obviously, that did not happen. Your instructor and peers mocking you, says much more about their character then it does yours! No one should treat another person that way as none of us are perfect! You have value. Your life is valuable! You have a purpose on this Earth, even if it's hard to see at times! You are loved. I don't know you and I don't know your story, but I do care about you! Don't find your value in what other people say or think about you. I know it's easy to want to believe the lies that people say, but they are simply not true!
Thank you for coming here for support and sharing your circumstances. That was very brave. If you want to share more, I am here to listen! It also might help to talk to a professional or counselor about how you are feeling. If you are interested I can give you a phone number to call for free counseling. I know they would love to talk to you and help you. Please let me know if you are interested.
I don't know your spiritual beliefs, but I will be praying for you!

I am sorry that you had to experience being treated like this by your instructor and for the abuse by your father. No one is perfect and we all fail at something sometime in our life. Your instructor had no right to mock you and make fun of you in front of your peers and then the peers doing the same thing. You are an important valuable person who deserves to live a happy life. Please don't do anything to harm yourself. Talk to a counselor or therapist to help you through this, I am here if you want to talk.
