I got cut

Third year of playing high school in soccer and I got cut. I know why too. My body was definitely not ready and I didn't play well. I have very serious insomnia that just completely drains me week after week, and I've developed a pretty bad back that hurts to just to walk or run which also definitely played a part on me not making it. I know I'm better than at least 5 kids that made the team, but I just didn't play well. So, yeah, I'm pretty depressed about not making it since I don't play any other sport. I know once I get into college it won't be that big of a deal, but right now it really sucks.

My only plan right now is to lift regularly and get a running parachute to try and get faster too.

Anyone else ever felt like this?

My advice? Give up. You already failed once, and in all likely hood, you will again.

Yes because there is no such thing as learning from mistakes or getting better, right?

If only he knew this earlier...

That I refuse to do.

I know I'm better than I played and I want to get bigger, faster, and stronger. I'm small for my age and I've been relying on just natural talent for too long. I need to beef up and work hard.

you must have played very badly then....as a third year you should have been a shoo-in basically since you have already proven yourself twice. thats how it is nearly everywhere.longhorn7

I admit I did play really bad. I've got excuses, but when it comes down to it I just didn't play well or make enough effort. Our school is very competitive though. We're state contenders for soccer, football, swimming and basketball every year.

High School Soccer is a waste in my eyes. Trust me I have played all four years of my High School career for a very competitive, good quality school. Jv for one year Varsity the other three. If you have no aspirations to go to college and play then it really is no big deal. Right now I am playing competitive and I find it so much more fun and challenging. Especially with State Cup and all that.

I know for sure I won't play in college. One, I'm not good enough. And two, I honestly wouldn't want to.

Something bad has always happened with every sport. Freshmen year I got shin splints doing cross country so I quit. I wasn't really that into it anyway so it didn't seem like a big deal. I had planned trying out for the basketball team but I broke my arm playing indoor soccer. I really had to work hard to be good at basketball so I ended up losing a lot of my game so I didn't try out the following year. Now I get to add this along with my chronic insomnia and aching back.

I thought this was going to be a thread about how you almost killed yourself by cutting your wrists.
