thank you all <| sep |> You ' re just suffering from depersonalization . It should go away soon , just keep living your life as your normally would and don ' t think about it . Also , lay off drugs for a while . <| sep |> South Asian here . American high school systemculture . The whole public school versus private school thing . Why is senior prom so important ? And why is it portrayed in extremes by the popular culture ? It ' s either too good to be true or some lives are ruined . And are Americans so superficial that glasses and braces together are a nightmare for school kids ? Whoever said that ' s ' ugly '? From what I see in TV shows and movies , it seems to be difficult thing to look beyond labels there . It might be that it ' s an exaggeration . Correct me if I am wrong .
