lol i have been expelled many times too, it's not that hard though. just stay away from school and they let you stay away a little bit longer lmao

but erhm i dropped out, i did real good though the 3 months i lived witout sa but i just couldn't find the motivation living with sa, no future, what to work for? and very low on energy. when i didn't have sa i also learned a lot from just listening to the teachers, with sa that's very hard.

Well, I stayed home too much 'cause of Crohn's disease and SA, and so my school asked me to leave. But I was still the age where you legally need to go to school, so I was home schooled. And still am, except my SA is slowly getting worse, and I can't see my tutors without getting panic attacks. I also can't work or learn or listen or think while having a panic attack. I also can't do those things (very well) while counting my breathing or something. So basically, I can't learn anything with teachers around.
I don't know if I'm gonna get my GCSEs, but I probably will, and then claim benefit for the rest of my life. So, in conclusion, I'm wasting my time, energy and sanity.

That's being pretty harsh on yourself. Have you tried therapy? Either way, there are probably ways to work around your SA. So you have panic attacks around just one other person? How about your family? if your tutor knew about your SA and was someone you could trust, would that make things any different?
