My test was awful. I still don't have results back, but I'm not at all confident that I even passed. It took three hours to get through the thing, and the questions were not at all like I was expecting. It was all multiple choice, but there was terminology that I didn't remember, and it asked about details of specific research studies that I'm not sure I ever heard of and case studies that just didn't even sound familiar to me. I just want to scream.

It didn't help that I was not in a good state of mind for taking a test anyway. My neighbors have been complaining to the sherrif department about my animals but they always tell me everything is fine, and an animal control officer was here threatening me on Monday. I did some cutting (not just scratches) after that, but it really didn't help. And I'm not eating - well, less than 500 calories per day. When I was taking the test I kept being distracted by being hungry, and the proctor was eating, and I couldn't concentrate very well. Then I went to my husband's office (same building), and he was out but my T was there and not particularly busy, and he tried to tell me it was okay even if I didn't pass, but it's not. I go to therapy this afternoon. I don't like to go when I'm upset or aggitated about something, or just generally down and depressed, because it's never very productive then. I want him to fix the problem and make me feel better, and it doesn't happen.

I'm sorry to take so much space about myself on your thread. Thanks for asking though, and I really am happy for you that you did so well on your test.
