Dear Jellybean,
I am 16 and it’s my Junior year in High school. My school is pretty small, and I have a few friends there, but they don’t quite understand what I am feeling right now; I guess what I am feeling is: Depression. The only thing the keeps me going currently is drawing to my heart’s desire. I forgot to mention that I am the Artist of the school. Ever since I changed periods into my Art class, many individuals have been giving me a hard time just because I have a talent for drawing. They would make fun of me how I never learned to smile, and when I look their way, they see it as a glare; I suppose I can unintentionally glare at people. I’ve tried many a time to ignore them all, but to no avail. I could say that I care a little of what they think, but only because they are interrupting my favorite class of the day. Help if you can, thanks for listening.
