I am 14, i have hyperacusis, misophonia, tourettes, anxiety, OCD and ASD. My school doesnt support me at all and i would like some advice on how to calm down and help my little sister understand whats going on.

Hi Sophie

Sorry you are struggling at such a young age. Are you able to explain what some of your conditions are please?

Have your parents spoken to the school? There should be a support system for children who need a bit of extra help. My daughter is in senior school and from time to time suffers with anxiety but she goes along to the pastoral office and they help her however they can, there is also a school councillor although they are only part time. Are you in the UK?

Hi Sophie,

you are such a strong intelligent older sister. Very good job seeking for help! Are you being medicated ? What does your sister have? Have you spoken with the counselor at your school? If so what was the response? 

Im here for you sweetie

Hi Sophie, I think your parents need to write to the school governors and explain the situation and exactly what support you are needing, spell it out to them.
