I don't know what to do ..

4 Replies

My anxiety has gotten WAY worse over the years since being diagnosed at 9 . I am now 16 . My nurse at school thinks i'm beginning to create a phobia of social interactions. She's scaring me . She tells me all the time " are you sure you want to do that job?" ( I want to be a LPN and work in a small nursing home .) I continually say yes but i feel like she doesn't believe in me . . No one really does to look at it . My mom and stepdad always talk about building a garage and an extra loft up top " just in case ." I know they want to be prepared for anything but it scares me.. i can't believe in myself if my family barley does .. I lack motivation as it from everything that's happened in my life . I don't know I guess i'm just venting .. School is a giant pressure to me because it's a social interaction and they don't let me call my mother for anything and sometimes hearing her voice just helps me calm down ..

It's hard to believe in yourself when no one else seems to but remember the only thing that matters is how u feel about urself !

Maybe you should find someone you can confine in and talk to them about your feelings and goals maybe uncle aunt also if talking to your mom sometimes at school have you talked to you guidance consular or hate to say it maybe sneak a call in bathroom or gym class also ask your doctor tell him how it helps and he can give like an order to give school to allow this possibly. And as a father of 4 boys 10-13-19-21 we as parents understand you more than you think we were young once two. We always want our kids to do well but we always don't know how to show it no matter what our kids are the best thing to happen to every parent. Know matter what example my oldest boy was huge kid and I thought football football football but he could care less and it's ok because we also love you guys doing what your passionate about to and the garage lift don't look at it as hurtful look at it as the care enough that they want you around to make sure you'll be fine

I go to an special school for alternative/ mental illnesses/ and learning disabilities. I can't have my phone at or during school. I'll talk to my doctor about it
