They literally force kids at my school with anxiety to perform presentations.

Bless her, I had anxiety symptoms throughout my childhood, my parents got me a dog. My symptoms have persisted throughout my life; I have learnt to recognise the physical symptoms that come with anxiety, I can acknowledge them as an essential part of me without being overwhelmed by them. It takes years of practice to stay calm as anxiety sweeps through your body and not snap back into a standard response, even now that still happens occasionally. It is worth the effort, anxiety will disrupt every aspect of your life if it is not addressed. This girl is exceptional brave for allowing this to be recorded, only someone who has walked the same path knows how she feels. She is on the right track to liberate herself from anxiety as she becomes an adult.

[@raeinx1426]

I’ve been asking my parents for months to get me a therapy animal to help with my severe anxiety (I’ve always found that I’m much happier and calmer around animals and I want to be able to have a bond with an animal of my own as I find it difficult to bond with people). I just want a pet I can play and cuddle with especially when things get overwhelming, such as a Cavapoo (or any dog of similar temperament), rabbit, cat or chinchilla. But my parents are being extremely insensitive about it and only allow me a hamster which bites and runs off every time I get her out. I don’t understand them, both of them grew up with cats and rabbits, and my mum always goes on walks with her friends dog. And yet they refuse to let me have a pet that could genuinely help me. Their argument against it is that I have to show them that I can be happy and always have a positive outlook, go on long walks in unfamiliar areas and help around the house even more. It isn’t fair that they use my anxiety and mental health against me like that, I always try my best but they fail to see it no matter how much I tell them I’m trying. COVID hasn’t exactly helped either. All I want them to realise is that in order to overcome problems presented by anxiety, I need help and assistance, non of which I get from anyone (at least not in the way I need it) so perhaps it’s worth venturing down the animal route. They’re more loyal and sensitive and most importantly don’t constantly nag you to fix your attitude and tell you how to act/feel. I don’t expect anyone to read this but typing it out has released some frustration I have surrounding my situation. I just feel like people can be ignorant and stuff and I have only ever felt at peace with animals, even before my mental health took a turn for the worst.

The amount of times I've watched this episode is unbelievable. I just wish that there was more support in some schools to teach staff how to deal with a panic attack. I once went to the wrong lesson so I went to student support to see my timetable it took so long I had a hot flush and broke down in tears a member of staff calmed me down but I just think it was a busy day and I just broke.

I actually love my school for these things like whenever i feel anxious in class or on the verge of having a breakdown my friends along with the teachers would help me and Give me a little break and sit in the ground or eat some snack it helps only a little but i really appreciate their efforts 💜

Can relate to her i developed anxiety around 2012 but wasn't diagnosed until 2016 Thankfully I'm coping a lot better now although I do feel a therapy animal would really help me I'm gonna adopt in the future and hopefully train them

If you have anxiety they give you a chinchilla?! My school tells us to stop having an anxiety attack and focus on lessons💀peak

[@amelia.and.murphy7358]

Mine don’t, I throw up lots so I go home

[@Luhvvlyrose]

We all deserve a chinchilla like that in our life 💖

If that happened in my school then u would find random dead squirrels in the hallway
