ahh, m!:) asked:
Ok, so i have a problem at school. Im a junior in high school and found out i have anxiety and i get panic attacks almost everyday at school. I start freaking out and scared that i might get a panic attack during a certain class then i end up getting them anyways. I went to my doctor and she didn’t help. I’ve been going to see a number of counselors too. But going to psychiatrists and counselors interferes with school because i have to miss school to go, therefor i have a number of absences. I missed school today because i cant take it anymore. Everyday the same thing. I go to school, i usually try to do my work, but im so afraid of getting a panic attack that it usually ends up happening anyway then all im thinking about is the time and how many minutes until the bell rings so i can just get out of that class.Or sometimes i ask to go to the restroom and stay there the whole class period because when i get a panic attack i start to shake and i feel the urge to go to the restroom so bad. And i don’t do my school work, so i have to take it home for home work. Also when we do tests and stuff i know im not doing my best because i rush through it and i just cant concentrate or i didn’t learn anything. ahhh, i cant take this anymore. So today when i woke up i started crying because i know that next week we have our final exams and their a huge percent of our grade. i cannot stay in a class the whole day and i know im gonna do horrible and fail. This is my junior year its the most important and i cant fail. So i told my mom if she withdraw me and home school me but she says no. She thinks that there is nothing wrong with me because when i am home i don’t get panic attacks and she thinks its all in my head and im doing this for attention, but im not! She tells me that if i don’t want to go to school that’s my choice and shes not gonna pay for me to get home schooled that if i drop out, i drop out. What should i do?? I cant go to school…. but i still want to get an education.
