Sounds like you have a lot of things you need to mull over for yourself Thrash. Take some time to yourself and try to calm down and really look at things from different angles and different perspectives. Even if this doesn't solve the problem, it will at least help you to better understand it.
Everyone goes through times in school and in life when they aren't happy with where they are or why they are there, let alone the fact that they "have to" remain there. But complaining and lashing out isn't the answer. It normally only makes things worse.
I know how hard it is to clear your head sometimes when things are going on around you like this, but it really does help and really is a necessity.
I wish you luck.

Try to find out what the core problem is and then attack that head on.
If teachers are giving you a hard time, or if it is the administration, or if it is the other students... find out exactly what it is about them that is causing you to feel this way. If it is other students picking on you, etc. then talking to them won't do you much good as people are immature at that age and don't realize the impact they have on others. But you can talk to the administration about what they are doing/saying to you. You can just say "x y and z are picking on me! make them stop!", though. What you really need to do is get the adminstration to KNOW how it is affecting you. Show them how much it is hurting you and what it is doing to your life and studies, etc. Make them sympathize and feel your pain, etc.
If it is a teacher, multiple teachers, the principal, etc. that is making you feel this much anguish, you should try talking to them one on one and be as honest as possible. Unlike the students, they are adults and can sympathize MUCH better. Yes, there are those true a-holes out there, but they are few and far between, and although you may think all of the ones at your school are in this small group, I doubt they are.
Try not to brush what I said off by thinking "well he has a point, but I know it won't help" or by some other thought. It takes a lot of courage to stand up to these people, I know that, but you have to do what you have to do to straighten your life out. School life or personal life, or both.
Complaining about problems doesn't solve them. You need to attack the problem head on.
