Around the age of eleven, I started developing anxiety. My parents were worried about my mental health. They asked me if I wanted to try out homeschooling so I didn't have to face all of the kids at my school. I had a couple of friends so it wasn't as bad. My friends didn't want me to leave but I really didn't want to stay at school. After thinking about it for a while I decided to stay at school. I thought maybe it would be beneficial in the future and I could increase my social skills. I never did increase my social skills but it was worth going to school with my younger siblings and being with my friends.
