I am in an organic chemistry class and am having a really difficult time with it. I am doing pretty much everything I can (going to all lectures, studying daily, working on homework with multiple groups of people, going to tutoring) but am still not getting good grades.
I started getting major anxiety this week and am having a hard time keeping myself sane and calm. The stress is making me feel sick to my stomach and I haven't had much of an appetite because of it.
I don't think I've ever felt this stressed throughout my whole college career and it's really scaring me because I don't know how to handle this level of anxiety. I'll feel okay one second and then a second later this cloud of anxiety engulfs me.
Have any of you been in my shoes and do any of you have advice for me on how to cope with it? I only have three weeks left of this class but I can't go on feeling like this all the time, I'm not sure I can go through that.
Any advice is greatly appreciated!
P.S. I've dealt with anxiety, depression, and OCD in the past so that's partly why this is really scary for me. It is, however, an anxiety I haven't felt in the past.
