Ok so I failed my 2nd math test. Thats 2/3 and I have to get it signed by my parents. I'm guessing I'm failing or borderline fail now.

I can't possibly tell my parents! They're the strict type that would literally either give me brutal verbal abuse or psychical abuse depending on their mood[well my dad would]. I cant handle how disappointed they will be on the same time. I was fine the whole day but just now I randomly woke up and I'm getting major anxiety attacks. I'm panicking. I don't know how to deal with this. I'm so depressed cause of it too! Why the fuck must I be so stupid ughhhh I'm so scared.

How in the world can I handle these attacks. I'm dying.

Gah babe, I'm sorry. I've been fortunate enough to have supportive parents and I really feel for kids who don't.

You'll have to tell them sooner or later. Maybe tell your mum and then scoot and let your dad find out off her... if they're going to yell at you, at least you can get it out of the way and stop feeling so afraid of it happening. If it's gonna happen, it might be best to confront it.

How come you're failing? I never liked maths, I passed and stuff but it's so not my thing. Do you not understand it, or do you have no will to study it? Either way there are things you can do. I don't know if a tutor is an option, but mebbe talk to your teacher about your difficulties... and try to set aside a bit more time for studying. And if you're in class and you're not getting something, ask the teacher to explain it to you and try to pinpoint what it is you're not getting.

Talking to your parents about it might help too. If you tell them what's happening and why, and ask if they would help you instead of yelling at you... well, it's worth trying. Parents are the biggest support line you have and if they're failing, it's a sad thing.

Panic attacks are horrible - been there, done that. Try not to hyperventilate - and don't hold your breath either. Talk to yourself, if it helps. Tell yourself it'll be okay. Sometimes I talk through a problem with myself, which sounds a bit nutty but it's really not.

This will be unpleasant but you'll get past it.

First of all your not stupid and I have panic attacks also and I know there not fun. It help me if I try and get my mind on some random thing in my room and off of whatever I was thinking about to cause the panic attack. I know your doing you best in school I'm sure you are, right? So why don't you sit down with your parents and talk to them about this and how you feel about it. I'm sure they will understand, and if you don't think they will then get someone else to go with you to talk to them. Verbal nor physical abuse does any good so why not tell your parents that? They may not even know how bad this is really effecting you. Some parents are like that, they think they are really helping there kids by whipping them or yelling at them when they get a bad report at school. When really there not doing anything but making the situation worse. Tell them about you anxiety attacks and how much stress your under. Maybe they can take you to a doctor and get you some help, because you don't need to be having them. I really hope I helped and if you ever need someone to talk to pm me.
