Hello,

I have had anxiety since childhood. I am a freelance writer trying to bring positive attention to mental health disorders. Currently, I am working on an article about school phobia. Would anyone be willing to discuss their experiences with me? Anonymously of course.

Thanks

I have the type of phobia you can control with this, well sometimes. I've actually just turned 13 and when I was in 7th grade I would get so scared I would get sick and sometimes throw up a bit. After awhile my doctor upped my depression med and told me I needed to suck it up. Which was hard. Because I was very afraid of school and I had probably missed over a month of school because I was so scared.

But that was about the only experience I had.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
