Yeah, I totally get why you would feel that way, and your feelings are completely valid. Have you met anyone who doesn't make you feel that way yet? What have you enjoyed about your new school so far? I have made one sort of friend who’s really nice. I think I’m going to move to a different school now where I have a close friend at. As I’m really struggling at break times and have been sent home because of panic attacks which is really embarrassing. I have enjoyed one of my classes and that teacher was nice which was good.

I'm glad to hear that you've made one friend. How is it going with them? Also, I'm wondering, what is it about the break times? Are they what is causing the panic attacks?

Also, I'm wondering, what is it about the break times? Are they what is causing the panic attacks? I already responded but it hasn’t shown up so sorry if you get two. they are really nice and are trying to include me in their group but I really don’t fit in there very well, she’s said the same thing and that she’s really trying to make me comfortable but not really working. Break times are just stressful because I never know what I’m going to do of where I’m going to go. Like sometimes I sit with that group other times I can’t find them and they won’t answer me so it’s so unpredictable and annoying. I’m not sure about the cause of the panic attacks because the three I’ve had this week have all been different things, the one I got sent home for yesterday was at the end of lunch when I was walking to class, I think it was just the thought of going back into a class I don’t understand with no one I know in it? Like they teach different things here that I never learnt in New Zealand and the teacher is saying they are revising what they should’ve learnt at like 12? The teachers keep saying don’t get overwhelmed but they also won’t help me and just leave me sitting there looking dumb so of course I’m going to get overwhelmed I have so much work and have no idea what any of it means? I don’t know, it’s so much harder than I ever thought it would be. MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monsoon Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Hey, Ah, okay, so when you're with the group, it doesn't feel like a good match. I'm wondering, how does it feel between you and her when it's just you two? Also, with the panic attacks, I think it makes complete sense what you're saying about the classes in that you don't understand them and also not knowing anyone; it does sound pretty stressful and tricky to cope with. I think that it's normal to feel overwhelmed, but it sounds like the school could definitely do more to help you. Have you spoken to your parents or anyone at school about this? I know it's really hard for you now, but it does get better, it just takes a while. Are you in tomorrow? MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have school in an hour and I’m worried. I haven’t told anyone how I’m feeling because I wouldn’t know who to go to. My parents are not mental health believers and I wouldn’t even know where to start at school. I have two classes today, one I sit alone in one I have that friend but I’m terrified. One of my teachers did say I could talk to her but honestly I don’t feel super comfortable around her and don’t even know when I would do it or how to even start that conversation.

Monsoon Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Hey. How was your school day today? I think schools are pretty good in supporting mental health these days, so I think they will be good at guiding that conversation you want to have. I'm wondering, even though you don't feel super comfortable around that teacher, do you think it could be good to still chat with her? If you like, I can also give you advice on how to start the chat. Let me know. MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea I guess it might be a good idea, and better than I not having anyone. MultiQuote Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
