Anxiety attack. Really, really unpleasant.

I never had this happen before. Not before exams. I can't quite access the certainty that it'll be all right, even if I screw up. God. Brain doesn't work. I need to go sit at the table and try to concentrate on my notes. It'll be all right, right?

Right.

Yes, it really will be all right. You've been through them before, you know it isn't really you but the silly brain chemistry, and you've survived it before.

If you can't concentrate on the notes, take a break -- you're well-organized enough that you probably don't even need to study, you're just doing it to be Really Sure that you Know The Material.

Right. ;-)

Thank you. It was, surprisingly enough, a very nice exam paper. :)

Good! and "Well done, there!"

*hugs*

It'll be all right. And panic attacks are hell. *sends virtual calming stuff across the 'net*

I'm sorry, Liz.

I had an anxiety attack during my exam. For Professor M. Who I worry will now think less of me, or that I couldn't be bothered to try, or...I don't know. I managed to finish it, but...bleh. And now I am too ashamed to even explain what happened.

So, yeah. It fucking sucks, and I'm sorry it happened to you.

Sarah, I'm really sorry. That sucks. At least mine happened a day beforehand.

Don't for an instant be ashamed about it. (Says the person who confessed to her lecturer than she couldn't bear to go into the library because the all the stressed-out people made her want to throw up.) Even if he's foolish enough to think less of you, that's on him. Not you.

I've missed you around the internets, btw. Stay in touch?

I am so sorry. :( panic/anxiety attacks really suck.

And yes, it will be alright.
