Hey guys! I am seventeen years old and am in high school. Because of COVID I only attend school in person Thursday and Friday, virtual the first three days of the week. 

Through COVID and the world shutting down and my general negative experiences with high school, I found that coming back inconsistently has made coming back so much harder. My parents won't allow me to transfer to online 100% so instead I suffer in the mornings and its very evident. To add on to that this semester schools have become very strict on attendance so I won't be allowed to have mental health days each week.

I have been taking 25mg of Zoloft because my anxiety would get to the point of my fearing school, throwing up in the bathroom in the mornings twice because the anxiety pushed me to become physically ill, and I can't get through the day without my stomach messing up. 

Does anybody have any tips on how to make it through the morning at school? I return tomorrow from Winter Break and I'm very nervous.
