1Ask the teacher for permission to leave the classroom. It is best to ask to go to the bathroom, because he or she will assume you have to.
-
2Go to the bathroom if you really must. If you don't have to, just walk around the school a few times, particularly near a quiet place such as the auditorium or the choir room. Take a drink if you need one.

3Run a few laps or shoot a few hoops in the gym if it's really bad. Most phys ed teachers won't care and they'll be happy if you got some exercise. Also, you might get extra credit from the gym teacher.

4Get your CD player or iPod and listen to a few songs before you go back to class.
-
5Return to class relaxed and ready to move on with the day. Also, if you spent more than 5 minutes outside of the classroom, tell her that you really had to use the bathroom, or that you felt a little nauseous (queasy, sick) and had to sit down for a time to recover. Also, tell her you had a stomach ache so it took a while. (She'll know what you're talking about.)
EditTips
- If things are so bad that all you want to do is go home, ask to call your parents and get someone to come and collect you. If this isn't possible, try to go and lie down in the sick bay for a short while; at least it will give you quiet rest and some time to think over things. Go outside and take a deep breath of fresh air
- Try to talk to your parents, your relatives, or someone you trust about your stress problems and they'll understand and give you advice.
- See the student nurse or counselor if you feel really rotten and alone. At least they can cover your absence for you with an explanation and may give you some time to talk things through.
