Hey, I hope u are feelin better:) Life is hard sometimes, especially growing up(teen years/early adulthood). Do you have any support around you? If not try to find some good friends who care about you. You are not alone. If you need to talk with a specialist/doctor/counselor, then you could do that too. There is nothing wrong asking for help. Sounds like you need to talk to someone. I am here if you need to vent. Take care of you.:) ]
The advice NinjaNeer gave you is very good. I might add to it a check up by your familly doctor. Ask mom or dad to let u=you speak with the doctor alone. Then tell the doctor how you are feeling. The doctor may be able to prescribe some mediction to help kick start some of the relaxation techniques NinjaNeer wrote about. Your doctor might also suggest a therapist who you can talk with who can help you work through some of the problems you are feeling down about.
As someone who is old enough to be your grandparent I can tell you that these are the best years of your life. They shouldn't be wasted by feeling overwelmed by life. Not when there are so many coping skills that can be learned byu just asking the right people for help.
Start with your familly doctor and follow the advise you receive from the doctor and go from there. ]
Your overall stress level is too high, which is keeping you from dealing with problems, which causes more stress. You could be having panic attacks, which would explain the breathing and shutting down issues. The same thing happened with me, and I basically had to hit the reset button.
Your main goal right now should be to de-stress yourself. Try picking up yoga, or working out, or walking, or anything that relaxes you. Put on some music and shut out the world for a bit. Make sure you do it once a day for an hour or so. It will refresh you and give you time to start sorting out your thoughts.
Then you can start dealing with your problems, one at a time. Don't do anything too drastic, but try making positive baby steps towards improving your situation. For instance, if there's one girl at school giving you trouble, try avoiding her. Or if your parents are on your back about school, try making an effort to get your homework done every day. It might not fix everything, but it's a step in the right direction. Little changes will add up eventually.
Whenever you're feeling overwhelmed, get away from the situation for 5 minutes. Relax, and try to clear your mind. Focus on something meaningless (I like to imagine an orange and think of every single detail of it, or try to remember how many digits of pi I have memorized) and regulate your breathing. Then you'll be able to return to what you were doing. ]
