Rumours

I am so upset, teenagers are honestly unbelievable. I went to a party on the weekend and I had a bit too much to drink beforehand, and by the time I had arrived at the party I had gotten worse. I vomited a lot and I could barely walk, so my friend and her mum had to look after me and took me out the back and called my dad. my dad arrived and he saw me in that state and thought I didn't look right so he called an ambulance just to be safe in case I had consumed some sort of drug or someone had spiked my drink. the ambulance took me to the local hospital and hydrated me and sent me home after 20 minutes and I felt completely fine at that point. no alcohol poisoning or anything, just a bit too much to drink. I went to school today, 3 days after the party. People stared and whispered when I walked past, everywhere I went people would yell "how you feeling?" and laugh. people I didn't even know spread rumours that weren't true ... that I had major alcohol poisoning and I that I had my stomach pumped. it makes me absolutely livid. whole groups of people would stare at me and ask if "the rumours were true". what is wrong with people? have they completely forgotten about respect and empathy? what do I do 😭
