I'm 15 and. At the minute I'm off school for no other reason that it terrifies me, being in the crowds and I'm too anxious to talk to new people. I yell myself every night I'll go to school the next day, bit every morning the seconds tick away and i just get more and more anxious, my stomach twists and i sweat, and I end up staying home. Mention of a doctor by my parents terrifies me, I've never been able to explain myself properly to a doctor because of my anxiety. However, once it's established I'm staying home I feel like normal again.

Help? The fact that I'm missing out on so much and dissappointing my parents is making me depressed.
