I'm a huge panicky mess

[Jolixte]

I have 3 exams, 5 tests, two projects, homework, and a spanish oral due in the next two day. I'm not prepared; I just can't focus on anything. Now I'm really begining to panic. The thing is even if I fail all of that I will still have 5 B's and 2 C's which isn't great, but it's not that terrible either. I should be thinking that it can only get better, but I'm not. Panicking is not helping anything and yet I can't stop. How do I stop? Note: The reason I'm probably panicking over this is because I'm a perfectionist.

Dear oh dear .. “Perfectionist” ‘eh???

*shaking head here*
Panic and stress won’t help you with that last minute “cramming” you probably need to be doing.

I recommend a tall Cold glass of which ever “soothing” tea is your particular favorite … a bowel full of Hershey Hugs … and Most Important …
Maintain a positive attitude.
Tell yourself that You Can Do It!

Try not to allow doubts or worry to interfere with your studying,
Sometimes your own mind can be your worst enemy if you don’t control the direction of your thoughts!!
When self doubts strike … simply refuse to harbor them.
Literally chase them away with Positive Self Talk!!!
I’m a HUGE Believer of “Positive Affirmations!!!

Make the best of the time you have left for study.

Take frequent but short breaks.
Getting up and move around a little but don’t allow yourself to loose focus on your studies, or get distracted.
For instance … don’t leave your studies to go watch some television show.

Do the best that you can, and then you’ll have nothing to worry about.

Good luck with your tests!!!

Hmmm... have you tried listening to some Bach? His music is very organized, and I've found it good for focus.

focus on the most important ones and take them one at a time
