My college performance has definitely declined since the BP kicked in near the end of my Freshmen year. Last semester was the worst -- full panic attacks kept me from even going near my classes. This quarter the anxiety is more manageable, but I am afraid that I may soon be falling into the same trap as I did before (got anxiety in one of my classes, skipped it a couple times, now only afraid of going to that class.)
I've done very well in highschool and I have scored exceptionally high on ACT and IQ tests. I want college and I know that a degree is for me. The anxiety and depression has made it an incredible challenge that I'm not sure if I want to be done with or not. If only the job market made it more feasible for me to take a break, work for a couple years, and go back.
