school help: I’m such a statistic. - Help.com

I’m such a statistic.

I dropped out of school, and I don’t even know why, but I read that most often kids with depression and anxiety are drop outs. That’s me. It bothered me so much that I didn’t know why I dropped out, I read it somewhere else, and a light bulb went on. I was under a lot of pressure at the time and barely remember it. I think I was in a state of shock/numbness that is just beginning to wear off now, six months later. I hate myself for doing it. I’m enrolled in an online program to get my diploma but I’m just not motivated…I don’t even care. Why??? Why do I feel so numb to everything? Why has my life and future stopped being important to me?

I suggest you seek medical help
It seems you want to work, but something is stopping you from it..
if its not a mental block then has to be a medical problem.

Search for your answers everywhere. Church can be helpful. Families will tell you the truth, if you ask them for help.
