Thank you for the compliment. Now I shall attempt to answer your question. Honestly I still am in love with your wonderland avatar.

Does anyone feel like their self esteem was lowered by expectations of classmates or others in school?
I have definitely felt a detriment to my self esteem. People have called me by many names for various reasons over the years. Middle school was probably the worst time, not just for me. I had friends with issues who had more friends with issues. It was only until we got older that we realized we weren't dumb and society had just handed us bad cards. Now I try to live my life the way I want to and to those who try and lower myself esteem, I just try and raise theirs in return. Now I have a question to follow this:
Is it better to end a poisonous friendship or to make amends with the person and tell them why they are poisonous? (In theoretical terms, poisonous meaning bad for you)
