I'm scared to go to my exam because i am only gonna fail! and plus everyone watches me. like, i get a feeling everyone is looking at me and then i feel all nervous and awkward and its just ugh! does anyone else feel like this?
ya, you're not the only one :sunny: do you like tea? if you have time with a busy schedule, maybe half and hour before your exam try one of those relaxing teas, while you're having it give your self a pep talk, then go in and crush it! i dunno, worth a try
I drank coconut oil tea, was very nice in the morning. but unfortunately my exam was a bitch! I think I've failed :'( *sigh*
oh man. I am so glad I am done with school. I have horrible anxiety and would often just freak out when it came to test time. It was a horrible, horrible feeling. I guess all I can recommend is..take deep breaths....
You'd be surprised how many people get bad anxiety when it comes to tests, you're definetely far from alone.I am a really slow test taker so I'd get bad anxiety when I was running out of time and still had a lot to finish, but never before a test.
Somehow it was just the opposite for me, I was anxious in regular class but when it came to taking tests I was always spot on. Go figure!
Me too. I was a great test taker. Anyways though... people should really learn to study for how to take tests. (look it up...there are lots of great hints and info on the internet on it...).... also, to anyone who is just a slow test taker, there are ways to get teachers to allow you extra time or your own space to take the test even. look into it if that seems like something you might need.
Well your exam is over by now, but for next time, as far as the getting nervous thing, just try accepting your feelings. When you feel awkward/nervous, don't try to push the feelings away, but also don't over think them. Just let them "sit" there, accept them. Hopefully overtime as you continue to practice this, the bad feelings will diminish.
in my day we would just smoke our faces off right before going into the exam seemed to work for most of us...I know it worked for me
