Should I tell a doctor?

I'm 16, and I have severe anxiety problems. The amount of stress I get leaves me unable to cope with it and I can't even sit in classrooms with other people. But now my hair has been falling out in clumps, mostly when I wash it. I know hair falls out anyways, but now it's clumps and I don't know what to do. Any tips?

Is the GP aware of your anxiety?

Right, fuc*in ell mate you gotta go see a doctor there is something going on for sure. If it weren't for the clumps of hair part then I would have been against going to the doctors but dude that sh*t seems bad. So go for it.

Yes, tell a doctor. Everyone gets anxious or stressed sometimes but you sound as though you're getting overly anxious/stressed. Hair falling out can also be a sign of stress. With regards to school have you spoken to your teachers about it? They should be able to help you.

I see a counsellor and a clinic nurse at school. Although they don't help that much. I also have a time out card which allows me to just leave my lessons but sometimes my teachers won't let me. And my head of house has said that if I see a doctor finally and they suggest that I work alone, then I won't have to work in my classes at all. Which is good in a sense.. I suppose

Well done for seeing a counsellor and clinic nurse about it. Have you tried facing the wall in lessons so you can't see your classmates? It may sound silly but it might help.

No, but CAMHS is, which is a mental health service for adolescents. Although I've never had an appointment with them, I just have a referral. But I've never just gone to a doctors practice. Too afraid I guess

I used to go to CAMHS and i guess it helped for a while but they just offer counselling etc.
Is there anything going on that has triggered this anxiety or anything that has happened?
Solving the underlying problem could help you out alot.

I'm really afraid to see a doctor because I'm scared it'll actually be something worse than just hairloss from stress.

I actually don't know.. I started getting depressive episodes all the way back to when I was around 11 and at the time I was getting seriously bullied online. So that may have been the problem. My confidence levels have severely dropped and making new friends is just a no no to me now. I can't even look people in the eye anymore. And my teachers just don't help. My tutor rep just tells me to snap out of it and it frustrates me because doesn't he think i would if I could? It's not like I want this.

Well you'll never know unless you see your GP. I know it's scary, but if there is something going on then your GP can help. Otherwise you might be stuck with a problem and no help with it. Who knows it could even be something that's a really simple fix.
I've held off going to the doctors about things before then found out I could have missed out on months of bother cos it was a really simple thing. And even with big issues, you'll still have it weather you go or not so it's better to know what you're dealing with.

Good luck.

So, edit, I finally went to see my GP about it and he wasn't helpful at all. He blamed it all on my exams, even though I told him that I have no problem with them and I'm fine taking them, All he's done is written a letter to CAMHS about speeding up the process seen as it's been 8 months since I was accepted into the program, but this was about a month ago now.
