Hi all,

I'm struggling right now. I'm so stressed out about school---I have about 6 weeks left and all the time crunches with last exams, final projects, and papers.. It almost seems like too much to handle. I admit I've been pretty bad at keeping up with my schoolwork lately. I didn't do any homework this weekend. I have 3 exams this week (one for my online class that I have to do sometime before Friday, one on Tuesday for which I haven't started the study guide yet (:/) and one on Thursday that I'm making up from when I was sick that the class took over a week ago and I still haven't been preparing for it) I also have a final project due APril 11, that I'm stressing about. I'm getting good grades right now (2 A's and 2 A-'s) but I feel hopeless for some reason. I can't get motivated enough to get stuff done and actually study. I'm going up and down from being okay, to being depressed multiple times in the day/week. My mind is so negative and I can't seem to get out of the rut. I see my therapist and pdoc this week so I'm hoping something happens to help me get better. I just have so much anticipatory anxiety and stress for the next month. How can you guys focus on something (like an assignment in the moment) and not let your mind race about everything? I took one of my hydroxyzine pills, but mainly I just want to waste away and watch tv and not think, or go lay down. it sucks Idk what to do. Any advice on how to help my racing thoughts about future stresses and my fears of failing? How to get through right here right now? Focus on one thing at a time... I'm struggling.

Thanks,
Brittany
