School to me? Well... -severe anxiety -stress -work expectations -overthinking -homework/project deadlines -exams -toxic people -bullies

How about make school a better place for students, schools are full pressure why not let them study at home.. And comes on tests days..

I always feel sick when going school and I am just silent and feel uncomfortable at school and I stand outside

I get so stressed when I know there’s school in the morning and that’s why I’m watching this video.

when i think about going to school in the morning it doesn't seem so bad but then at night when i think about school i have a panic attack.. on top of that i have anxiety and i havent been to school in 8 months :/

I cried every morning my parents would get so mad because I'd refuse to go to school they'd always ask why I cried and refused to go but I could never find the words to express what I was feeling it was awful

I feel like im on the verge of tears, i have trouble breathing, my palm get sweaty,im always nervous, and i feel like im about to explode

last year i had an intense fear of going to school because of my emetophobia. i missed a whole month of school. i felt so alone, crazy, stupid, and even suicidal because i didn't know what was going on with me. i felt angry at myself for missing school, and that's when i started scratching and cutting myself. my mom always let me stay home because she thought i was "sick". soon enough, she got angry at me asking what was wrong with me, one morning (like every usual morning), i told her i wasn't feeling well (my panic attacks) and she yelled at me, and literally DRAGGED me into the car while i sit there crying my eyes out. i beg her to let me stay home while she drives me to school. she started ranting at me about how the school always called her to see if i was coming back. she got into the parking lot, opened my door while im sitting there still crying and begging, and she grabs my arm and drags me into the building. but once im inside, i act normal, well, tried to at least. Because im the shy kid, so i tried to act like i was okay, like i always did. people were staring because tears were rushing down my face and my face was red. i still remember that day like it was yesterday. now since the pandemic, i do online school which saved me, but i spoke with my doctor about my problem and she recommended me on talking to a therapist. so yeah. i gotta make an appointment, and soon, i hope, i'll let go of this fear of mine and get better.

I get panic attacks when I go to school, but I cant take meds because it triggers my anxiety and I gag or even nearly throw up.

Wow, I thought I was the only person who had school anxiety but its reassuring that I'm not alone... I hope we all overcome this somehow guys

I don’t get anxiety about going to school I do however get very anxious when i have to talk even if I just need to sneeze or cough or stand up to get something or even go to the toilet that gives me anxiety because that action singles me out and most of my teachers haven’t heard my voice

Ever since i was a kid. Every school openings i always crying and having a fear

I'm a kid who goes to school and I kinda get targeted by the bullys and I cry my self everyday

Y'all please pray my parents don't send me to school for he rest of the week I will appreciate it please I beg you!!!!!

I was really confident going back to school on the first day I decide to give it my all and raise my hand to answer questions since no one was participating the teacher chose me to answer and then she cut me off just as I was speaking and picked another person, I'm too embarrassed to raise my hand in class again.

I’m a 12-year-old girl who suffers with severe anxiety and depression. I have had multiple traumas including my sister and my mind never being there because she was with my older sister Hannah the psychiatric hospital tried to kill her self multiple times. And the second grade after the year that all of that was going on I started getting school anxiety and then on my first day of second grade I was crying and crying and saying my mom to take me home. The counselor and the principal ended up carry me into the school and telling my mom to go home aunt but they were driving me to the door I tried holding on but the couch to grab my hand and it made me hit my head on the metal door. The second day of second grade I was Crying and my mom drove me to school that day. When I got there I was still crying and tried to go home with my mom. The cats are Gabby by our pushed me in my chair and pushed me into the table and told me to shut up and stop crying. After that Day i’ve had school anxiety sense. I made it through second grade and third and fourth and fifth. But when I got up to sixth grade my sister tried it until life again even though she hasn’t tried to do that in five years. My sister was put back at the second hospital with my mom going back-and-forth and my dad to go see her. The first day I was crying and crying before the bus came I have actually got out of the school for the first day. The second day I started crying in class for no reason I knew it was because I was so anxious. School district was willing to help my mom and I and I eventually went online. If you’re working with a counselor do EMDR A whip to seventh grade the first day was great. But the anxiey it’s still there and I wonder why God will help me by taking that anxiety away.

My anxiaty to school started I think around 6th grade I will throw up every morning and it was just horrible, school just stresses me out real much and I would keep wake up under the night bc of. I'm currently in 8th grade and Summer break just ended. I was a bit excited at first but the anxiaty is starting to come back, school works,exams, pressure and sometimes the enviourment is probably the reason but I also know that presentation is the biggest reason to it. Also my teacher are a bit eh, I used to have 3 teacher I really liked and understood everyone and one of them had school anxiaty when younger so she always related and understanded it just felt good to have tecahers like that yk, but oh well I will try my best

I hate that we aren’t finding ways to meet our children where they are instead of forcing them to live in “our world” which is horribly outdated and hasn’t served any of us. The world is a mess loving according to standards that aren’t serving anyone! I just hate it and it breaks my heart. Our children could really create a beautiful world if we would stop indoctrinating them into our world which doesn’t work for anyone but maybe 10%.

⟟ get suck high anxiety as is, school just makes it so much worse. It's not like they're even reaching stuff ⟟ don't know. It's so stupid

I’m 20 now but when I was at school had the same problem.

One of my teachers accused me of plagiarism and now I don’t want to go back....

My school is going into phase 3 and I'm behind in my first period and so anxious about it. I'm going go be one of the only online ones 😅

(This is kind of a rant so I'm sorry if my grammar isn't the best) Im 17 and in freshman year I went to a new school for high school and had the greatest year of my life. I had friends, I was doing things outside of school, and I enjoyed the teachers and learning even though the days were super long. Then, 10th grade came along and in the middle, the pandemic started. At first, having had school phobia in my last school, I was really happy because any kid would take the opportunity for a day off. But, after a few weeks online and lots of my friends leaving, I suddenly just stopped attending. I looked for therapeutic schools and ended up choosing one (It was a terrible school and I ended up changing again to a better one) but I realized after going to that school how depressed I was. In freshman year when I had all those friends, I was super loud and happy and funny, but now I barely talk loud enough to have a conversation in school. Even to this day I hate myself for leaving my old high school and I hate my anxiety and school phobia for "ruining my life". I thinks its harder to lose who I was and its made me very depressed when i'm in school because i'm this shy quiet person but thats not even the real me. Im honestly blessed to have such an amazing mother and she truly tries her best. She listens to me and validates my feeling constantly and admits that she doesn't understand but she tries to. It's frustrating because she constantly tells me to "Just push through" making it sound so simple. Seeing everyones comments, i'm comforted knowing im not alone, but im still shocked that with this many kids dreading the idea of school, we haven't made any changes. Some people are just not meant to sit in a room for hours like people with ADHD and some people cant be with other people for long periods of time. Mental health has become more widely accepted, but the fact that we haven't made any big changes in the school systems is shocking. Theres a billion kids all with different personalities and things that they're dealing with, yet you want to shove them all into one building for hours a day treating them all as if they can all work the same way. Some kids cant wake up early, some can. Some kids cant handle big tests and rather do a bunch of small quizzes while other students rather just one big test. Everyone has their preferences that would help them to succeed. I realize teachers get to decide what teaching style works best for them, but the students cant chose what learning works best for them? Anyway, if you got this far thank you and if you're struggling then I hope you know your not at fault for anything and you should never apologize for your anxiety or whatever reason it is your unable to attend school. I hope we can stop pushing this narrative that every kid can just go to school and not only attend but also pass and graduate. I hope one day we can change the system to be something more accommodating. And no this isn't a lot to ask for when school is literally apart of everyones lives. Instead of trying to "fix" kids, why don't you fix the school system.

I always feel uncomfortable in school. ALL THE TIME. Peop,e think im a weirdo and i barely have any friends.. especially in p.e when you have to be in groups, its awful.

I always overthink about homework because I submit it but then I always think I might fail It needs to stop

I cant do this, every time I think ab school my heart hurts so much and I want to cry, I mentioned this so many times to my parents and I told them I feel like I have anxiety and they know I sh but clearly they arent going to do anything ab It, and the thing Is I dont even know what I want them to do. like If I switch schools things arent going to be any different Ill still have anxiety and this horrible feeling In my stomach and Ill still have trouble breathing In class and Ill still spend so much time crying In the bathroom as cringe as that sounds, I just dont know anymore

me watching this video for tips *has already taken and is on meds, done dbt, cbt, pt, literally the neuro stimulations shit, etc...* rip

I'm just mad my local doctor decided to pin me to her stretcher thingy by my forehead & stomach, then blamed me for making my stomach hurt or was barfing. 😣 I could cry for all the local kids dealing with anything similar...

So this short video puts guilt/ blame on parents and advocates medication. Puts me off. There are other options. I'm going elsewhere for them!!

I had school anxiety once and i literally didn't go to school for 2 months and in my country it's illegal not going to school so it turned into a fraud case

I do self medicate and I don’t go to school lol

Scolionphobia(fear of school

Bullshit. Been dealing with school anxiety since middle school and going to cbt therapy made me feel like a piece of garbage who didn’t want to study because of laziness

I hate my life

I don’t Believe thats True 😡
