Missing too much school

Really stressing out about missing school, have had to miss so much because of bad symptoms.

Mom doesnt want me to homeschool or cyber school even though that’d help me the most.

Can’t handle real school.

What grade are you in? My senior year I missed about half the year, but my school had a program where teachers would come tutor me at home so I didn’t fall behind. Maybe your school dos that too. Ask your guidance counselor or principal.

I started several semesters only to have to quit because of relapses.
So it took me 6 years. So what? In a career of 30 years it’s just a flash in the pan.
You can start again when you feel better.

Depending on what level your in, you can get some help. Disability services at a college will sometimes allow you to miss days without repercussions. I don’t know what to do in high school, but talking to a guidance counselor, all your teachers, and the nurse will probably be best.

I skipped a lot of school back in the day. I was avoiding the anxiety I felt there. “Avoidant personality disorder” is one of my diagnoses.

Sorry about you missing school,but 10 years ago when I was in high school my attendance rate is execellent,almost 95% presence,I still fail my O level examination in the end…I rather missed school and be able to pass the exam,attendance rate means little I guess

11th grade.

I’ve missed so much and the state department might come by my house, all the time I’ve spent in the hospital.

I hate school, makes my anxiety and paranoia go over the roof. But my mom refuses to homeschool me and keeps making me go

It’s best to TRY and make it in the real world as best you can.
Then if that doesn’t work you can get disability if you are unable to work.

But try to blend in with the normals, that’s a skill you’ll need your whole life. Avoiding them can make you a hermit with no friends or help.
