So stressed which I never went back to school

[bd8510]

Well I have been on my BusPIRone 7.5mg for over a month now. I thought I was getting better but I dont believe I am.

I am trying to go back to school and write a paper. My teacher told me my topic was too broad so I narrowed it down now I have literally wrote myself into a corner. I didnt understand the first assignment so I got a D on it when I had been making straight As but it was a huge portion of the grade. The other grade builds off it. I feel I have shot my foot off, I can dig myself out of this ditch and the paper is due Sunday.

I try to work on it but hte anxiety is so bad its making me sick to my stomach to even look at it and causing me to heave. I cant focus on the paper and freeze and cant find any resources to build on it. If I could at least feel like I could thing straight maybe I could dig myself out of this colassal hole but if I fail this paper I fail the class.

I am so stressed I am so tired. I am so tired of no one caring when I tried to vent ot my friends and family. They think im being dramatic. I am generally freaking out and don't know what to do and just want some help. But i feel no one in my support group can either provide this help or actually gives a fuck. Or they say unhelpful things like youll figured it out or you can do this how? Like can you at least explain how you think I can get this done.

I am so sick of feeling this way. I just want to lay down and rest.

I know how you feel not being able to rant to someone and I know it is hard to write a paper while stressing over it and everything else. All I can really say is that you could try a different tactic to work on it. Or see if you can give it a rest, like don't even look at it for a day or two then try again. I don't really know cause I, myself is only a sophomore in High School... but if you need to rant, rant on here or something, I rant to my dogs all the time and it makes me feel slightly better.

Thank you! I just feel that I am always negative all the time. I am afraid that its slowly isolating me. I was able to reach out to my advisor though so maybe I can get some help that way.

I'd like to try to help you get the paper done, but I need more info. Why do you feel that you wrote yourself into a corner?

[bd8510]

we had to write about natural resources and how we would create an action plan, i chose to eliminate plastic well i thought it was an over all idea I didnt think it was an actual action plan to get it done. And so i chose to get rid of plastic bags. You can do that in like two minutes go buy canvas bags I am not sure how in the world to expand on that to make a page or two.

Can't you go into detail about various types of plastic bag recycling? There are still going to be lots of plastic bags in the world, even if you personally buy canvas ones.

I'm not sure what you mean by an action plan. Do you mean "If I ruled the world, this is what I'd do"? You're not going to get rid of plastic bags unless the government bans them, so that's why I suggested focusing on recycling efforts. Here-I-am suggested replacing plastic bags with paper ones, but I'd guess that the plastic ones are cheaper, which is why most stores use them.

I sympathize with all of the stress that you are currently under, but if you only have to write a two-page report, and you have four days to do it, it shouldn't be that much of a problem.
