Hello,
I have started college two weeks ago and I got really upset on the first day there,was in tears, couldn't breathe and had had three panic attacks, I like proper freaked out, I couldn't do it, but I stuck with college for the first three days and still hate it.
We did come up with a solution in the second week though to calm me down each day I have a good day in college the support worker would give me a sticker and that's still happening so I guess that's good...
I just feel so different because I have a support teacher in class all the time and it makes it so hard for me to communicate with people (even if having social anxiety and autism doesn't make that so hard anyway!!!!) I hate the feeling of feeling different it's like I'm an alien or something like I'm invisible!
Second week in and I freaked out more because I have no friends, no one to talk to and I have no where to go for lunch where as in high school I had at least a little room where I could go for lunch or when I got really really stressed I could hide and just spend 10 minutes calming down, it is well annoying me that I don't have that at college.
No one understands' me at all, people keep saying to me, "it'll take a few weeks for us to understand you, just like it will take you a few weeks for you to understand us" I'm just there like "A few weeks and a few years are different things, people at school only just got to understand me at the end of year 11 before I left for college!!"
This is getting stupid.
I've been trying my best to get up each and everyday, at half 6, get myself ready, get my little one ready, do her teeth and get her dressed, then do my teeth and get myself dressed and then go down to get the bus at 8am so that I get to college on time and she's at crèche on time and no one understands' that,because it takes me forever to even get the energy at the moment, I really struggle to get up and sort out my life and make sure I'm there on time each and everyday, which some days I can't be bothered to do.
At the moment I hate college,I hate going, I hate it, no one gets me, I really keep crying to get it out and last week I got sent out the room because I was crying and having a panic attack does anyone else think that's stupid? Then when I went back in all I got was "your being a bit mardy today aren't you Hannah what's wrong?"
I AM NOT BEING MARDEY I AM UPSET AND ANGRY WHY WON'T THEY UNDERSTAND THAT?!!!!!
Okay, I think I could use a hug to calm me down, I applaud anyone who could understand and read that, as it's quite long *claps* well done if anyone read all of that.
Love & thanks in advance
