I don’t want to be looked at differently
I go to a two week overnight camp, and last year I was having trouble with my mental health. Both of my best friends were also really struggling too, so I made it my job to make sure that they were okay. After I hurt my back, I started having panic attacks, and one night I had some bad thoughts. I let my unit leader know, and I had to stay outside talking to them for like an hour.
The next day everything was fine, but the panic attacks kept happening. I stayed with my friends and counselors for pretty much the entire day. It kept happening like this until the last day. On the last day of camp, I wrote letters to all the people who helped me and my friends.
Then, when I got home I became really camp sick, so I wrote another letter to “Blueberry“ (my unit leader). I said that I was really tired, but not in a su!c!d@l way, just in like a sleep deprived way. So, when they got the letter, they called my parents to make sure I was safe.
Im worried that this year the unit leaders and/or counselors will look at or treat me differently. Any tips or reassuranc?
