    Talk to your mom or a teacher about it and they will find someone for you to vent to.

    Talk to a school counselor.

    This isn't anything to be ashamed of and you won't be able to handle this situation alone and the advice here will not be enough.

    School counselors are trained for these types of situations, you will not find judgement, you will find assistance.

    You have to choose to talk to someone.

    You have to figure out who in your life you trust the most.

    If it's not the number I gave you - you can always Google it or look in your phone book or call the operator.
