I too had a problem with school anxiety, I dropped out at 15 because my anxiety was so great. If I knew what I know now back then about anxiety I would have completed High school.

Alot of people feel anxious standing up in front of a class and talking, doing presentations ect. It's nerves, we all get them ours just gets a bit worse then others.

But you did it, you should pat yourself on the back. I'm sorry you are under alot of anxiety right now, I am too amoung other things.

Just wanted to know i'm here for you, and there is nothing wrong with you, try to think postive even if you don't believe it. Self Talk is key right now in terms of anxiety and school. Try doing what I did and write postive notes, sentences to yourself and whenever you feel anxiety coming on in school take out your piece of paper and read it. It helped me.

I know it's tough, anxiety sucks! But you'll be able to get through this.
