How to deal with what I think is anxiety
Posted , 3 users are following.
have started year 8 and I am getting more and more stressed. I have so much homework (2 or 3 hours a night), I have a grade 2 clarinet exam when I started only a couple of months ago, also I found out that my dad is cheating on my lovely mum and I don't know whether to tell her or not. Today and the day before that I faked being sick (I know it's really bad and I haven't done it before) because I just couldn't deal with the stress, now I'm almost wishing for panic attacks so I at least have a reason for being so stressed, also sometimes I just break down and cry when I'm in bed which makes me not want to go to bed so I deprive myself of sleep. Sorry for rambling on but I need some advice in what to do. Thanks!

Also, think about talking to mum. You should not be alone with this and she may already know. It's strange sometimes when everyone actually knows but no one dares say anything! Your parents maybe struggling with the same dilemma as to how to tell you? Eitherway, the situation can't carry on. Would you be happy if your dad promised to stop it and it never gets mentioned again, could you trust him to do that or do you feel your mum really needs to know? Both of those are absolutely fine sweetheart, you are trapped and being asked to find the wisdom of Solomon to sort this out. It's an impossible problem, but it's not your problem. It's your parents. Both of them. What you must not do is keep this secret any longer. If you want more time, speak to a teacher at school or an adult you trust, maybe a friends mum? But please don't keep this to yourself xxxxxx
