Why do you want to be a teacher? And not something else? Also, what is are you doing right now? Are you a student or have a job already? Answer these only if you feel comfortable enough.....its okay if you don’t answer

winterpanda · Answer

currently.. I'm studying to be a teacher........ I like being a teacher for smaller children, but it's all other thing to speak in front of teachers & seniors

SamTsui · Answer

Can you try to get help from some counsellor? If you have funds to do that.....

winterpanda · Answer

I know, I need a counsellor..... but it's uncomfortable for me to share my anxiety issues, because even my family don't believe me on this..🥺

SamTsui · Answer

That's too sad 😞. I can feel you. It would have been so difficult for you to reach till here. I really appreciate your hard work. You are very brave.

SamTsui · Answer

One more question, have you tried some of the relaxation techniques (like breathing techniques) that are available on the internet?

winterpanda · Answer

I tried, but it didn't work.... in front of people I starts to get panic, nervous, anxious and every thing 😔

SamTsui · Answer

I am no therapist, so I cannot tell how to change your negative thoughts or tell you how to be less afraid. I only know this. All I would say is that try to convince your parents or your mental health issues. I know that would be very difficult to do, even I haven't been able to do that to my parents. Or maybe, if you in a college, then you can ask the student body to arrange cousellors to take care of students' mental wellbeing. Can you try that?

SamTsui · Answer

Also....if you want to answer it.....which country do you live in? Because in different countries, the situation is different?

winterpanda · Answer

I'm in college, from India..... so here, there less or no awareness about mentel health issues.... and to convence anyone it will take 2-3 life time I guess

I am not fit for anyone
