Meltdown

2 Replies

So, I had a meltdown. I’ve got a math test to take, and a pre test and that’s all unless I want to take the final. But in order for me to take the last required test, I have to get 70% on pre test. I failed four times. I got 67% last time, I was so close, and that’s what makes me feel pretty bitter and now I’m weary of trying again, but I’ve got to. If I want to get to a college level math, I’ve got to keep going. Strangely even though I feel frustrated, I don’t seem to feel utter despair. I’m right now looking at the problems I did CORRECTLY and trying my best to focus on that, but it is hard. I am scared. I’m scared of trying again and doing worse and getting a passing grade when it’s too late. And I’m afraid I won’t pass this math. This level of math is so hard and it’s taken its toll on me and my mom hasn’t been feeling well. She is recovering, but oh boy!!! I want to be optimistic, and I have a tiny feeling I’ll do better, but I’m feeling so worn out and so tired of this!!!

Morning Anne gables,I bet you've done all your prep but your inner anxiety might be taking over,not allowing you to think and process your info clearly.Try to give yourself some me time,try to fit some meditation into your daily schedule to slow down your anxiety,therefore you'll hopefully be a lot calmer and are also able to think and focus a whole lot better.Hope it helps Anne.
