Anxiety in the school!

I have suffered with anxiety since i was young and this means that i went through school with it. I just think that there isn't enough awareness of anxiety in out society but specifically in schools. Having anxiety in the school environment nearly sent me mad! Everyone thinks your either rude, a freak or melodramatic. I'm not saying that we should pander to people with anxiety as i've found that it's usually that method of 'cruel to be kind' that gives me the kick up the backside that i need, but just to have a bit more patience and understanding concerning these people.
What are your thoughts on this? Do you agree or disagree? What is your experience with anxiety?

I think school years are awful though. If you don't fit in with a particular crowd then your done for. You'll either be ridiculed for 5 years or feel like an outcast - or was that just me?
People dint seem to understand that mental health problems can't be helped. We don't just decide one morning 'oh yes let's have social anxiety today' or 'i'll have x amount of flashbacks'. It doesn't work like that
Sorry I realise I got into a bit of a rant... It's a topic I feel quite strongly about
