hi ,
Am doing a couse i hate the most for the past 4 years. I used to be a bright student till my 10th grade. After that i lost all interest in studies. Now i am a poor performer. I study only on the day before my exams &somehow managed to pass till now. But now am so worried that i cant even study on the day before exam. Cant concentrate even for a while. Am having a lot of flashbacks of past traumatic abusive events. I read the same page for hours not even knowing what it is. I have my exam tomorrow. Havent started studying yet. Its like i dont care even if i fail. Am doing a lot of things to kill time. Cant study. Never had exam stress. Feeling emotionless. Eating & sleeping in excess these days. Crying for no reason.I just want to know why all negative memories come attacking during my exams unlike other days. Is there any way by which i can avoid those?

Not certain anything of help will create an immediate solution for your need to study and reliving old memories. Is there time to withdraw and focus on what's leaving you rather (seemingly) apathetic? Do you have any goals in mind with all this schooling?

Long term solutions: Better study skills and time management skills. Daily agenda books are most useful.

Are you currently under treatment by a counselor? I ask since you mentioned flashbacks. Cannot recover from trauma alone.

Thank you..
There isnt any time. I have no goals in life. I dont even want to live. Once i went for councelling. But the councelor made use of me. I cant go to anyone. I have trust issues.

What about employment? Some find earning potentials as a release from feelings of being stuck and/or trapped. Those feelings often contribute to depression.

Can you review your notes and highlight important parts of the syllabus?

Who's funding your studies?

Sometimes you've just gotta wing it. Walk in to an exam believing you know the topic. When's the test?
