This doesn't sound true.... Maybe a nice fantasy. Teachers allowed this? doubt it. Not to mention.... You're blaming someone else for not being able to handle your own emotion, and then telling other people to dump their feelings on you, you, who is struggling with an eating disorder and cutting yourself. Nice fantasy. Not a good message.
if it's not true, then it doesn't matter. how is it not a good message? you're basically people who are going through this stuff. sorry, but I don't think u should even bother to comment.
