Answer 1

first u try to find the answer that why school seems to be a struggle to you.

I feel that you don't have any friend in school.try to talk with your classmates,at least find one who is patient and caring  enough to listen to you.

start taking about silly issue like movie or music as girls of your age generally do.or you can also share study related thing.with days you will surely find more friends...

n believe me ..some people are intrinsically loner..but still they can manage a large social circle...don't give your self much importance..try to enjoy silly funs as your classmates do..

but plz do all these far as you can manage those naturally..i wish this will help.

See a doctor, they have anxiety medicine that helps really well.  I personally suffer from anxiety and last night I stayed up reading my bible, that always helps me.  Everyone is different.

Answer 3

oh you should really talk to your parents or a close friend,, you are to young to feel this way,, but you are not alone, i hate to see some one your age go on meds,please talk to someone! i struggle with this everyday,,, because when i was young they really didnt rrecognize depression,   take care,,,,

Hello,

Have you considered seeing a school councilor or speaking to your doctor about this? Even just a parent? Do you think you have any reason for feeling this way or is it something you don't quite understand?

I was the same way until I went to the doctor. I was 19 and a year out of high school and my anxiety was taking over my life. So my mom and I went to a doctor. They perscribed my prozac and lorazepam. It did wonders for my anxiety. I could work again, I got married! Then.. I found out I was pregnant. So I had to stop taking the medicine. Well, I was losing weight because I wasn't eating well so my doctor put me back on my medication because she said the risk of not eating was much worse than the risk of my medication. Anyways long story short, that goes to show how I did on and off of the medication. Im back on a smaller dose now and its not really helping me much but at least I can still take something. I know medication is sometimes scary but they know your medical background and weight and would never give you too much medication to take, they will perscribe you what they think will work best for your age and background, and the medication with the least side effects. There are also many other things you can do to help. There are breathing techniques, yoga, exercise, a good diet, etc. Good luck!!
