It's been a while since I've faced it, but it's starting to come back as I go through the semester. This is my first year being away from home, going to university.
My general education classes have been easy, but I dropped one class that was for my major and the other one I'm not doing well in, but it's more my fault than the professor's.
I go to the therapist at the counseling center, but I don't really want to admit to him that his ideas aren't working and he's not understanding anything I'm saying because that means I'll have to explain, and I'm not good at that.
I keep trying to calculate my final grade for the class, but the highest I could possibly score at this point is a C+ and, since I want to go to graduate school, that means I'll have to take the course over again.
I'm meeting with my adviser next week, concerning if I'll be able to graduate on time (within two years; I transferred in). However, I don't feel like I'll be able to, because everyone talks about how hard it is to get into the classes you actually need.
I feel so close to breaking down and that either way, I'm not going to do as well as I thought I would because I'm a horrible slacker. I don't even know if it's worth studying anymore.
I also noticed that I've began to sleep longer ever since I started and even take naps during the day, or I've skipped my class for my major because I'm too tired.
I haven't been eating too much because it ends up making me sick.
I feel too intimidated to go up to my professor about any of this.
I don't know what to do. I'm on medication for anxiety (150mg of sertraline) and panic attacks (.01 mg of clonondine) and the earliest I could see my own primary physician is at the end of November.
