/dep/ - Depression

I want to improve my life and start my studies, but my classmates show me no respect. I try to avoid violence so that I can finish the course, and when the instructor shows me no respect, I try to stay quiet for the same reason. He tried to take advantage of me regarding an item I had for sale; when I refused, he forced me to do masonry work and told me to "keep my head down." The instructor spends all his time drinking coffee, playing on his computer, or watching pornography.

Although he eventually had to pay for the wall that was broken—and I later humiliated him in front of the other students—it seems he will now face consequences because I reported him for watching pornography in class. I also managed to recover the cost of the course by taking back several expensive materials. Still, the whole situation feels unfair; I only wanted to learn—I never missed a class, I was always on time, and I was genuinely committed to my education.
