I have always had a lot of problems with my excessive anxiety. I used to go home everyday from kindergarden to grade 2 because I couldn't handle being at school. But I grew out of having to leave school. I still have a lot of anxiety that I have trouble dealing with and I will get anxiety attacks occasionally.

I am the kind of person that isn't that smart, but I have an incredible sponge-like memory. I just listen in class, then I don't ever have to study for anything, and then I'll end up getting 80%-100% on my tests. But it is my first year of highschool and that means I have exams within the next couple days. I had my English exam on the 26th. I figured if I studied really hard, the exam would be extremely easy. So I studied for four days, which is a lot for me, and I knew everything PERFECTLY. I was completely prepared.

And then when I went to take my exam, the exam was really hard because I was so nervous going into the exam (it was my very first high school exam). I had the BIGGEST anxiety attack I have ever had in my life. I was quietly in tears (nobody noticed) and I was literally SHAKING so much to the point where it was physically impossible to write anything. I couldn't concentrate either because I was so overwhelmed which made everything worse. I had an hour and a half to complete the exam. But because of the attack I barely finished half- meaning I FAILED.

I still have two more exams to write and I'm terrified I'm going to have anxiety attacks while writing them. I don't want to fail all three of my exams!!! D: What do I do, I'm desperate!

I can relate to what your going through. Can you go to your student services office (or counselling office or whatever they call it). They are likely the most likely to know how to help you. Each school, region, country is different in how they handle these things but they may be able to provide options for where you take the exam or something like that.
