I recently moved to a non-Muslim country, and I thought it wouldn't be so bad because we used to go to Jummah and go to a Dars every Sunday too. But I joined school today, and it's going horribly. I have no friends, and I don't even know anyone, and I can't go around the school without getting lost. My physics class is ONLY guys. Everyone is so loud and annoying and so disrespectful to teachers, and they're completely chill with it? I've never experienced anything like this. I've lived in Saudia my whole life, and just moving away and leaving everything behind was so hard. There are no Muslims in my class, and I feel so weird being the only hijabi. And then they're showing movies about pregnant trans men and whatnot in one of my classes. I don't know; I just feel horrible. I don't even have time to pray Dhuhr because of the timings. I don't think I can do this. And on top of that, I joined in the middle of the school year, so I have to work really hard. And I don't really want to tell my parents either because they worked so hard to get here. I just feel very overwhelmed with this big change and don't know what to do.
