I went to college and tried to fight through the anxiety. I made it my first year ok. I attended class, and did my work, and well. But things changed my sophmore year. Things just kept getting worse and worse, and I couldn't leave my house. In some instance, even my room.
I am now a junior and Im still dealing with my anxiety. I miss class a lot. My professors don't know me. I sit in the back of class and never participate when I do go. My teachers probably all think I am just some punk slacker kid who doesn't care, but it is not true.
I feel as if I am wasting my parents money, and my own, as we split the price. My Dad is very ignorant to what people like us deal with and he gets mad at me for "slacking off". He doesn't understand why I skip class. Its because I feel I can't leave my house. I go entire days without eating because I prefer starvation over facing society.
My grades are in the toilet, and fear that I will just fall back in to the same trend as I am in now if I go back. I don't like these grades reflecting me.
Sounds like I should just take a break right? Not so simple. I wish it were. I will be taken off of my Dads medical insurance if I am not a student and I need that to treat a condition I have. I will also have to start paying back loans, while I have no money, and am in no shape to hunt for a job.
