Description
Warning- Venting Below......
kinda, sorta, vent thingy....
I'm getting nervous about school starting up again, trying to finish my summer work, and my anxiety is kicking up into full gear. For those of you who don't know, I have an anxiety disorder that sometimes makes life a living hell. Under certain circumstances or triggers, I'll have an anxiety attack. It's not fun. During these attacks, I'll feel distressed; I'll often pace back and forth in my living room, or feel so scared that I can't move, huddled in a ball, waiting for the feeling to pass. I'll jump between hot flashes and cold flashes, feel dizzy, drained, and sometimes a bit nauseous, and I can't bring myself to eat or drink anything at all. I have to take several prescribed medications to help prevent and ease my anxiety, and I go to my therapist during times of frequent stress. Thankfully, partially due to the medicine, my anxiety isn't as bad or frequent as it used to be. When I was younger, I had anxiety attacks almost every day to the week, and would go days without eating. And even though I mostly have my anxiety under control, I still sometimes feel like I'm falling apart.

-patpat- Don't worry. If you need a stressed-about-school buddy, I'm your girl.
But hey, I'm sure everything will work out.

I used to have a lot of anxiety attacks and stuff too. Don't over think the things you have to do, just take life one day at a time and do your best to enjoy it. It's easier said than done, but it works over time. Also, make sure to have time to take breaks, that always helps ^^

Beautiful picture ;A;
But don't stress too much over school. I can somewhat understand your situation, I was extremely stressed out about my summer work, and as school got closer and it still wasn't done I ended up just coming to a stop, not doing any work, and even dropping a class to get rid of some of it. Just take it slow and make a plan. It'll all be ok

augh, no, that's not what I meant! ;A;
It's not stupid to stress over school, at all! There are stressful things from school. I just meant, like, don't get so stressed over school that you die or something u-u And if you're feeling that stressed, a good idea is to just take small steps and not attempt too much all at once

Don't worry, I'm not gonna die! Thankfully, my anxiety attacks are much milder than they used to be. I don't have super serious ones as frequently either. It's mostly been just a whole bunch of tame-ish ones, and one semi-serious one. For some reason, I get them more often in the fall; the change of seasons can really mess me up. And honestly, I kinda bring school related stress onto myself; I procrastinate too much on assignments and do them last minuet. Terrible, I know, I'm still learning to manage my time better... hopefully that'll save me a lot of stress in the long run.
