I wish I had some good advice for you. I used to go thru that at school, too. Every Sunday evening, I would start going thru severe anxiety about Monday morning--and not just "not wanting to go to school." I got a lot of bullying too, but even b4 the bullying got too bad. By the 6th grade, I was already starting to feel like some kind of freak and my depression was really starting to kick in--and I developed a little earlier than a lot of my classmates which, not only made me feel more self conscious, but the hormonal aspect didn't help. I was starting to need to shower more around that time, but my mom was a pathetic drunk, and I was only allowed one shower a month (which didn't help my social situation at ALL). It was also real obvious that she liked my younger brother, more than she liked me, and she also let it be known that I disgusted her. She would buy my brother brand new clothes every couple of months, but would not buy me any! So I had to wear rags to school, and people thought I came from a poor family--although I did not. I eventually started stealing clothes from the department stores just so I could have something decent to wear to school. I still struggle with social anxiety to this day. Sorry for the long rant.
