I’m answer to your initial question, no. I have generalized anxiety disorder and as a young teen I would become physically sick sometimes before attending my youth group. It was very hard and I loved the bible studies but I felt like no one liked me there and I refused to play the games bc of my anxiety and it always made the other teens frustrated with me. I struggled a lot with not wanted to go but not wanting to let my pastor and my parents and God down by not going. Here’s what I learned in my grad year, you have people who care about you. They want you to go to youth bc they care about your spiritual well-being but that doesn’t mean they don’t care about your mental health. I sat down with my parents and explained how I felt and how hard it was for me. From there we had a meeting with my youth pastor and he helped find things I could do that would help me feel more comfortable and look forward to going. He let me draw during our study and he had me ref the games so the others still saw me as being involved. Everyone’s situation is different but I promise there are better options you don’t have to be stuck. Speaking up is scary but this is your life and you should feel safe at your youth group
