I have a exam tommorow

But i am not axious for it

I am so afraid i think i am making wrong decisions in life and on the other hand i think i am just over thinking. Even if i take advice from someone but in the end i know my life goals better but i am so anxious, confused and sick.

I can't even bring myself to open text book.

Sleeping isnt helping. Nothing is.

I wanted it myself but now i am questioning it ?

What should i do now

Having anxiety about life and decisions that impact life is so relatable

It is your anxious brain making you second guess things

Have you tried journaling ? You can try to write whatever thoughts you're having and give it a space to leave your mind

Best of luck for exam tomorrow, you will do great don't allow anyone not even your brain to make you think otherwise

Thankyou for replying. I feel better hearing that i am not the only one feeling this way.

I did tried journaling , wrote down my fears , then slept. But waking up in morning my brain thinks the same thing again.

I even first convinced myself that let's try both things and see where it goes but it just feels i am running away from making decisions.

Thankyou again

I know it feels good to be not alone ❤️

I'm sorry to know you're struggling so much

Making decisions is hard sometimes and we avoid them due to many reasons, maybe you can try asking yourself what is making you avoid taking a decision, what would you like instead, what is your ideal situation etc that will help you reach clarity in thoughts

You're welcome

@quietNickel1872 i’m sorry to hear that you have anxiety I can definitely relate as a college student test anxiety is a real thing.


personally for me things that I use to help myself is take breaks, I usually would study for a few hours take a break and then go back to studying I also find breathing exercises to be super helpful and listening to music when you can be in a positive environment sometimes that makes you and your body feel more comfortable so some of those anxious feelings can go away also it’s important to find what you are most anxious about is it the test that you’re anxious about or is it specifically remembering or you know being quizzed on the material good luck with everything hope that this has helped :)

Thankyou for the advices it will help me alot.

For me in case of studying, i do want to give my best but my brain constantly thinks about past and worries for future. I cant focus at all.
