Im feeling really down. I just came back from my psychiatrists appointment and found out I have to manage to keep taking my college classes even though my anxiety disorder has been out of control lately.
Talk to me!! Tell me everything, what happened.
Thank you!
So last Friday I had an oral exam but I completely freaked out while I was preparing for it. I could not stop crying. The day after, I had a test and i woke up at like 5 because I was scared of taking it. I ended up taking a Xanax pill (which I’ve been prescribed by my psychiatrist) and I didn’t go because I felt too dizzy. Since then, I was not able to go out of my room and I spent most of my days in my bed in the dark. I’ve had several breakdowns and it’s really hard. I also haven’t been able to eat since Friday, except some cookies and a sandwich on Monday. Today I went to my psychiatrist and he only prescribed me more Xanax pills (2 times 0.25 mg every day). I feel quite ashamed of myself and lonely because I feel like I’m acting ridiculous. I have many friends who support me and I used to have really good grades. But now I feel unable to cope. My parents live in another city and I’m at a prestigious college so they think I should stay there.
