Shadow Dancer,

Sounds like you have a LOT on your plate right now, so don't be too hard on yourself about missing a few appointments, even though they were important. I see it as your brain saying, "I'm going to help you here, and blow off a few of your appointments."

Wow--that's a lot of essay exams. I hope your friend is feeling better soon. Can you talk to your professor about letting you make up the exam? Was the exam after the car accident? It's normal for people to forget things when they are stressed out.

Keep us posted as you can.
