Teen Anxiety, Panic Attacks and School Stress: You’re Not Alone
Churning thoughts never seem to stop inside a teenagers head
“My heart is pounding.
I feel like I’m going to have to run out of the room.
It feels like it’s beating out of my chest.
What is happening to me?
I can’t take this anymore.”
My friend says it’s a panic attack.
I just want it to stop.
“Everyone is tired, right?
It’s so easy to stay up late and so hard to wake up for school.
Why do my parents care so much about my sleep?”
That pit in my stomach?
I feel it every time my mom brings up my grades.
“I’ll never catch up.
Who even needs APUSH or Geometry anyway?
I’ll never use this later.”
“I don’t want to fail…
but I’m so overwhelmed that I don’t even know where to start.”
Do theses thoughts sound familiar?
Many teens struggle with:
-
Anxiety and panic attacks
-
School pressure and academic stress
-
Sleep problems and exhaustion
-
Low confidence and self-doubt
-
Feeling overwhelmed or “not good enough”
If this sounds like you, you are not weak.
You are not broken.
And you are not alone.
How do I know what to do to help my teen?
I know my daughter cares about school, and she is hiding it well! I have tried everything to motivate her, and nothing has worked.
Maybe if I take away his phone or ground him, he will get his grades up. I want him to care and start turning in his homework. I know this hasn’t worked in the past, but I am hoping this time it will.
My relationship with my daughter is really awful. I wish we had the relationship I always wanted with my Mom growing up. You know the one where I could ask questions, and she listened instead of lecturing me? I am caught between enforcing the rules and wanting her to trust me. Is it too late?
Now it is the time to get some help for you to deal positively with these situations. Therapy can give you some strategies to help your teenager. Therapy can give you the support to develop the relationship with your child that you always wanted.
First job after college – not knowing which way to turn.
Anxiety, sure; bi-polar? – Man, I hope not. But my moods swing like crazy. What if my boss finds out I am an impostor? I don’t know what I’m doing, but I’m trying to keep them from finding out. What does my boss really think of me?
My life isn’t perfect, and I can’t compare to the amazing life my friends post on Insta.
Comparing yourself to friends is natural – just not helpful. Doubting your decisions and being scared at work are not unusual – but no one wants to live this way. Therapy can help give you some confidence to navigate this time in your life. I love working with young adults to help them discover their possibilities.
It’s time to try something new
with someone who is trained to help you
navigate these times in your life.
Hi, I’m Betsy.
One out of every four teens between the ages of 13 and 18 struggles with an anxiety disorder, according to the National Institute of Mental Health.
In my practice, many teens seek therapy because of:
-
Academic struggles and school pressure
-
Social anxiety and isolation from friends
-
Poor sleep habits and chronic exhaustion
-
Panic attacks and overwhelming worry
-
Low confidence and fear of failure
Parents often notice changes in their teen’s mood, behavior, or motivation—but feel unsure how to help.
That’s where I come in.
