    My anxiety has been killing me over the last year. I have not been to school with everyone else for over a year.. I got extremely depressed last fall and life felt completely pointless. This spring/summer I’ve grown so much, and I’ve learnt so much. I now go to school every Tuesday and Friday! I don’t sit in the classroom but i sit in a room with my favourite teacher and I get to have classes with her!❤ Obviously school is done now, but i’m still very proud of myself for staying strong throughout this year. I went from not wanting to be alive, to actually waking up, loving life❤️ Anyway, my point is that school work is NOT everything you need to focus on. Obviously it’s important to keep up with your work etc, but my mental knowledge has changed so much since last year. So if you’re going through a difficult time and not being able to go to school, just focus on your mental knowledge rather then stress over school work. I love you, and iknow you can do this❤
