text: Mental illness effects peoples emotions and actions which could result to them having trouble doing basic activities a regular person does. Furthermore, dealing with those emotions and actions, it might make him feel safer and calmer doing activities in their own personal space. For example, if he is dealing with Anxiety, his brain might be his worst enemy in public areas, such as a school classroom, and it will make him over think and not pay attention to what is actually in front of him and might miss what the instructor is saying. In addition to that, dealing with Depression could also effect his mood of the day such as not getting out of bed or doing any type of hygiene routine. If he was able to do attend classes in his own space, his mental state would not be as bad as if he was in a classroom setting. In comparison to that, mental illness can also effect the body and how it reacts to situations. As stated before, Anxiety can make his brain his worst enemy in public areas. If his anxiety does not do good in those situations, it could lead to an anxiety attack or a panic attack during school hours. He might have to miss out in a class or two if he does happen to get one. He also might not know how to deal with those type of attacks which could result in health problems.
