I think you should go back to school , quiting school is going to give you more anxiety in the long run , because when it becomes time to take care of yourself you might not be able to get a good enough job without a diploma . The real world of working is not easier then school , and many people are not acknowledged for doing a good job.. That is probably why you are still scared . Don't rush growing up , go back to school and when you graduate you will feel good that you completed something on your own . You obviously need help with your past , if you havent spoken to someone then maybe you should . We all need a shoulder to cry on and a teenager can not handle it on their own . Your first step is asking for help , and you did that , kudos to you . Be a teenager as long as you can .. And get help.. More people then you know get it and if they don;t they need it

Please go back to school and get some counseling. You are just a teenager and stress and anxiety go with it. Couseling can take years especially with what happened to you. In order to get somewhere today you need an education. Please don't stop. I will be thinking of you. :wink:

Hey, I just wanted to say that I am gitting my ged and I have not gotten counceling for what happened to me...My family didnt even get him locked up. They did nothing about it...I still have to see him at holiday and stuff to. Its very hard for me...And if I do go to councling..And tell them they will send him to jail and my family will be ruined...I dont even know what to do anymore.

Put him in jail , thats where any man that can do that to any woman or girl should be. Your worried about breaking up the family ? Any parent that lets someone get away with doing that to there daughter should be put away with the the guy who did it . This is your life, if this man truely did something to you then give him what he deserves . Put him away before he hurts another innocent person.

Hi,
i know by the sounds of it you have been given many medications to try but have you thought of getting into a counselling group, you would be suprised that you arent the only person with these anxieties although they are very valid responses to what happened to you.
I dont think it will matter whether you are at school or at work your anxiety levels are based on what I believe is your inability to trust people based on someone who should have been able to be trusted betraying you like that.
Your faith in human nature and your own judgement has been shattered, the grieving process at losing that part of yourself at the moment that the abuse happened may not quite be over for you.
I really believe you should look into getting into some counselling to talk to someone who most times has been through what you hav been through.
Hugs

Look, regular high school is one of the most vicious places for a person with anxiety. Horrible horrible enivoronment. I don't blame you for wanting to leave. I also get a sense that are one of the "enlightened" ones who realize that everything you're doing in high school is actually pointless; and indeed you are correct. It is pointless....


I think you want to get the high school degree however, that's one thing that'll help you out in the long run... A lot of people can get by in the entreprenuerial world, or career world with a high school degree; very few succeed without the bare minimum.


There are charter schools, alternative schools available which I would look into if at all possible. Otherwise, I suppose as horrific as it may be roughing out traditional high school might be worth it. You already have spent so many years to get to where you are.

And either way get therapy. It will help.
