TIL I've had 14 panic attacks this semester and still got straight A's, nobody at home knows

I finally wrote down every time my chest got tight and I had to hide in the library bathroom at Ohio State, and the number came out to 14 since January. My mom thinks I'm just busy with classes, but I smile through every Sunday call and tell her everything's great. The weird part is my grades have never been better, which somehow makes it feel worse, like if I'm doing this well then I have no right to complain. Does anyone else feel like the better you perform, the less you can say anything?
