Hi Alsizo and welcome to our caring forum community;
You haven't mentioned your parents in your intro. It'd be wise to seek their counsel on this subject because adults have a far better idea of what your options are and how best to support you. Though I don't know them or if they're supportive. I hope so...
It's commendable that you've been doing this on your own; it must've taken courage to play things out this way. So congratulations for being a survivor.
I'm so sorry you've been bullied. It's a destructive pattern for some young people to turn on each other, but there's help out there if you're willing to speak up.
My suggestion would be to request a meeting with the principle of your old school to disclose everything that happened to you and discuss options. Take your parents with you if possible.
If going back there is too scary, then he/she will have a far better chance at relocating you ok. Their words hold power in the education sector and might get you into another school.
Tafe's very different and doesn't have the same comradery, atmosphere or programs that schools do, so I'm not surprised you didn't gel with going there.
I hope my suggestions are helpful and provide some reassurance that there's still ways to get thru it. And don't forget to swallow your pride and seek advice from your GP who can organise a psychologist or counsellor. Otherwise a school counsellor would be great too.
Take care and please, post back and let me know your thoughts and how it goes.
Kind regards;
Sez
