I'm so scared to start high school !

Question

Im starting highschool in September and I have one big fear. For some reason unknown to me, Im under the impression I'm going to make no friends! This makes no sense since I have tons of friends and made tons in school of both genders. Anyone know why I feel this way? Is it just becuase Im scared of starting high school ?

If you're a social person, I'm pretty sure you'll have friends. Don't worry! I think it's just the idea that you're going to a new school with some new people. The only way you're not going to have friends is if you become anti-social and cruel to people. Since you said that you have tons of friends already, I seriously think you have NOTHING to worry about. Just think of it as another year of school with just a new environment.

Answer 6

i would not say that you "scared" just nervous...but there is NO way that you will make NO friends...within that school there is gonna be at LEAST 30 people just like you in some sort of way. So you ARE going to make friends, just make sure you pick your friends wisely. The ones that may seem like they are my not be AT ALL, so make sure u spend enough time to really get 2 kno this person b4 u develop a real friendship...

Answer 7

I know how you feel.  I graduated high school about three years ago and I still remember feeling afraid that my friends would not be around.  There are probably a lot of people that are afraid and don't know what to expect as well.  Just be yourself.  You will have many opportunities to reach out to different people.  Try to join extra curricular activities.  Be genuine.  I was really quiet and withdrawn in high school, but I still made some friends.  I am sure you will be fine.
