Sam Thompson has opened up on his battles with anxiety and ADHD during his school years, revealing he broke down in tears as he struggled to revise for his exams.
The 31-year-old felt he would let his family down if he didn’t get accepted into university. Speaking at an event to launch the new Disney and Pixar film Inside Out 2 which features new emotions Envy, Ennui, Embarrassment and Anxiety, he said: “I was anxious about my grades all the time. “My grades sucked, I failed all of my A-Levels. I felt like I had to apologise to my parents that I wasn’t going to go to university and I had so much anxiety about that.
‘Nice guy, really likeable person, needs to apply himself more’. “But they never knew why that was the case, and I used to get very frustrated.” Speaking at the event at TikTok's London offices, Sam recalled one English teacher – Mr Balfour - who was really strict but gave credit when it was due.
