Ah, sometimes friends and family know or see things we may not. 🤔 A word of caution from someone who's been there...try your best not to overthink, over worry or catastrophize. These behaviors may contrubute to the symptoms you had. Which is something a therapist can help you work through.

I'm happy you have good support around you. Do you plan on following up with a therapist beyond speaking to your family and friends?

Feel free to check back in if you have concerns, questions or need support. Mayo Clinic Connect is a supportive and knowledgeable community with many people who experience feelings like you've been experiencing. I hope you have AWESOME summer plans and stay active. Are you involved in any summer camps, sports or clubs? At 17, I'm wondering if you're thinking about college?
