Help

hi! so i’m not actually going to say my name for privacy reason. anyways, when i started high school i get sad for no reason or i stress about nothing. it feels as if i can’t breathe, constant butterflies in my stomach, and the need to cry. i’ll be sitting down doing nothing and i all of the sudden get this way. i’m sorry if this seems like nothing, i’m having trouble putting it into words. it’s all getting to a point where i’m seeking help, because it’s interfering with my happiness and everyday life. i cant tell my parents because they’ll just think i’m overreacting, but i’m not. it’s bad, so bad.

i also always feel the need to mess with something, wether or not it be my legs or my hands or the nearest object

Hi and welcome willowtate. Sounds like you're dealing with common anxiety/depression. There's nothing weird about your symptoms and truly they are not your fault. My suggestion would be to set up a time when you can discuss those symptoms with your school counselor. Believe me, there are many students in your school going through the same thing. The counselor keeps things very confidential and has many options you can use to get some help without your parents knowing.
