What should i do..?
Hi i'm huda.. i just wanna share and ask(?)
I'm still in high school and i do have anxiety and depression
I tend to skip class when i'm not feeling well and its do going for months in 2021
Back then it was a mess, social anxiety, depression, meeting counsellor
And i do overcome that a little by little
In this 2022, since i skip many class, i didn't do much homework bcs of depression coming back and limit of times
Now school is open, and the same thing happened again, i skip class and spend my time in infirmary bcs of ANXIOUS, that i didn't finish my homework and my teacher wants to collect it.. I don't have the urge to tell my teachers about this mental illness, you know my teachers don't really understand this, same goes to my friends.. They do know about my mental illness but they don't get it, they must feel like i'm such a loser who always run away when i feel uncomfortable. If i tell my parents, they must scold me bcs i skip class.. What should i do. .. I have my efforts to finish my homeworks nowdays but they sure takes long time since my anxiety and depression still here.. Actually its all going well right now, and i have the courage to overcome it, but its all about time, i have big exam in 2 months and all my teachers are giving a lot of excercise to do, extra class almost everyday, seriously its hard.. Its hard to do my homeworks when the depression or anxiety on me start coming back.... What should i do.. I don't have anyone who understand me well. Truth from my heart stranger relates more (in 7 cups apps)
Hey huda, i'm katia, nice to meet u ♡
I've been dealing with the same last year at school, didn't go to class almost everyday, dealing with too much anxiety and depression... social life can be difficult sometimes...
I used to think the same (my hole life), that people won't undestand me.
Then i just realized that anyone can help u as much as yourself... you have to trust in you. Trust that you're better. Dont think that you're a mess, stop thinking about being in trouble.
Say it out loud, search for help, go to a therapist (it worths)
Start doing something for u, stop thinking about others :(
You can do it! I trust u. I'm here if u need someone.
Thank you so much for your words, i will try my best to stand up again♥️
Hey Huda,
I want to start by saying you are not a loser nor a mess. The issue you are going through is so common. I myself have gone through the same issue, no one really understood me and It would take me forever to do work. Having a mental illness is hard and sometimes with depression and anxiety, it makes it harder to attend class, do homework or do it quickly so don't feel like your are the only one going through this.
You should start doing things that you enjoy, things that make you happy and that you enjoy. Life is stressful and hard already, and like you said with everyone, not understanding, doing things for yourself and making yourself happy is so reinforcing and definitely goes a long way.
I would also encourage making a schedule, scheduling your time using your phone or laptop and setting up notifications to help you get tasks done. You could also reach out to support groups Best Online Anxiety Support Groups of 2021 (verywellmind.com) and talk to others that have been going through the same issue as you.
Another suggestion try doing homework or school work with a friend you trust , it makes it so much more motivating and will help you out to reduce the time you spend on school work.
Hope all goes well
Ali
