Talk to a Health Professional or somebody else you trust
Talk to your GP so that he or she can assess the situation with you and discuss appropriate help. Your GP can refer you to other NHS staff if needed. Discuss you concerns with someone you trust. A counsellor, school nurse or teacher, could help you to consider whether you need further help.
