years now.
My Story-
It all started in year 6, and I was worried about going to PGL. They said I could come home if I didn't like it, but they never did. I cried everyday,and it was horrible. I came home and I was fine, but then I started to feel sick and sweaty and anxious all the time. I started not to go to school but then I went again for the end. It came to the start of Senior school, and it was very very hard. I ended up not getting out of the car. I started to go in the end but then I broke my leg in a spiral fracture and I was on bed rest for 2 months. So things were quite hard, but then I went to school and I was fine. It got through to year 8, and I was bad again. They then had this lady who said she would be with me whenever I needed her. I started to feel safe again. Byr then they took the support away , and I had my first panic attack and I didn't leave the house for 1 month. I lost a load of weight and it was the worst time of my life. I didn't go to school for 6 months, but then I found out about this school for kids with anxiety and depression, and they changed my life. I went there most days and they just made me feel safe. It has come to now I am slowly making a transition back into school.
I have a lot of tips for how to easy your anxiety and these things have helped a ton.
1. Take yourself out of the situation and calm down
2. Do some doodling, it makes you think of anything apart from the fact your panicking
3. Play on your phone, this one helps a lot for me.
4. Stress Balls- they are quite a useful piece of equipment,
The thing that has proven most effective for helping me control my anxiety is Blue TAC. I find stress balls okay, but I can't tear it apart so blue TAC helped me loads. I wouldn't be attending the school I go to without blue TAC. I don't leave the house without it anymore. Blue TAC is what is keeping okay.
Anxiety is a horrible thing to through, and I hate it. It makes you depressed and sad, and no one should feel like this. There are some great websites that helped me figure out my condition, and they are...
