I’m 16F and I’ve lived with my parents for my whole life but I’ve always been quite independent about my stuff. That being said, ever since I was really tiny (about 4) I would get anxiety attacks. This sort of had its ups and downs throughout my life and for the longest time (during covid) was totally non existent and I was fine. However, I recently came to a foreign country to learn the language here during the summer and I’ve had a major anxiety relapse. I can’t go a day without having some kind of intense anxious response. Maybe it’s because I’m living with a host family and haven’t been seeing my parents or living with them or maybe because no one speaks my first language here but I’m barely a few days in and I’m already struggling so much. I don’t feel as if I can talk to my parents because they would get really worried for me and I don’t want them to worry. I want to have a good experience here and improve my knowledge of this language.


Also, idk if this is just me, but I have a crippling fear of losing items, i.e. clothes, sunglasses, money etc and i guess living out of a suitcase for this long is triggering it
