Any idea on what is actually causing your anxiety? Is it just the students and teachers? Is it a home situation? Is it the pictures of that boy? Or all of it? I dropped out of highschool because of anxiety from students and teachers. I started having issues with attendance around that time, I felt like I lost control of everything. My home life was much less than amicable at that time and I pretty much locked myself in a room, never came out except to sit on the internet and chat to strangers. I began an internet addiction this way and earned badly developed social skills which has increased my problem later on in life. Right now, what is helping me the most is learning how to deal with people and how to, on a short term basis, deal with the anxiety. Studying on "Customer Service" has helped me to interact with people in a professional-only way. Which means you have your "job" and they have theirs. Since you feel uncomfortable with your teachers, talk to your counselor and explain the issue and I would reccommend learning and understanding school policy so you can check the policy and make sure everyone is treating you like they're supposed to be, its their job and they have rules to follow just like you do. I would also recommend talking to someone about the drinking... I understand fully well how alcohol can calm the monster of anxiety but doing that will lead to an addiction that will be harder to overcome because you're trying to self medicate. Surround yourself with things, colors and sounds you like when you're alone; positive things, the last thing you need is to put yourself to dwelling on your negative feelings. Listen to music that makes you feel like dancing, it urges your brain to release feel-good chemicals into your system and calms anxiety. Probably best not to do that during class..If you feel like I missed or am misunderstanding something, I'd like to talk with you more. I can't stand the idea of someone missing out on their education because of anxiety and ending up having to go through what I went though or worse.
