I've been out of school since the end of 8th grade because i have severe anxiety issues and I tried homeschool, but my parents never put any time or effort to help me and I just sort of dropped it. Doesn't help that my depression has been in full drive ever since and nothing motivated me. I just wanted to get my ged and move on. But now I'm having second thoughts and wanting to finish school. The problem is that I'm turning 17 next month and if I go back into school I'll be a freshman. Not to mention I live in a very small town and my mom is the local hairdresser, so I know people are gonna talk. I'm hoping to take some classes online to help speed it up but still. I don't know what to do. I could just use some advice right now.
