whimseybuttons Test Anxiety Jun 8, 2009 9:37 PM Hello Friends! Okay--most of the time I can be a pretty resilient and it takes a lot to push me of center--but I have a problem with tests. Yep. I break out in hives and actually have been known to throw up when faced with a big test. I have tried to be hypnotized and unfortunately I cannot be hypnotized. I have tried subliminal tapes. I have tried studying more and studying less. The really weird thing is if I know it is a test that does not mean a whole lot--not critical to a grade, I usually ace it or close to it. BUT when it is an important test I freak out, panic, over-think things or just simply get "brain freeze." Now--for all of you posed to type "Just don't think about it being a BIG test" or "Tell yourself not to worry" ---don't you think I have tried that already?! I just took my math final and totally blew it. How can I typically make grades above 80% on quizzes but then when a "final" comes up I freeze up and fail miserably? It defies logic. My professors are as stumped as I am. This has followed me my entire life--and it has to stop--but I do not know what to do. I am so frustrated! Please help. This has to stop. I will do anything to make this stop.

PinkNC Don't talk to me....talk through the hand ***** PinkNC Jan 21, 2009 5:19 PM If you’re having problems that you don’t want to announce to the world, then try doing one simple thing.....write to yourself. Buy a journal and lock it away or try typing your feelings and true thoughts. Be relentless with your words and express every emotion bottled up inside you through your hands. Relieve your thoughts by placing them down on paper or typing them for your eyes only. Sometimes when we write things down we tend to slow our physical being and calm down. While writing, a lot of us also tend to find the answer to our own question. Even the hard ones like 'how do I cope with all this drama in my life’. Sometimes you don’t need a friend to tell you to your face what to do. Sometimes telling a friend can only make you feel worse in the end. You only want them to listen but sadly they tend to express too much of their own opinion that you never wanted or expected sometimes, therefore you feel the tribulations on your shoulders getting heavier because you’re thinking about their opinions and who else they may tell your business too. Believe me when I tell you that a paper journal or Microsoft Word is not going to talk back to you or give you its opinion. Unless you misspell something in Microsoft Word of course :) First and foremost......get comfortable and get alone. Don’t think of the unneeded, just focus on YOUR problem. Try getting into yourself so deeply, that you soon feel you are transported elsewhere. Again, have you ever noticed that sometimes when we’re complaining or deeply hurt while asking questions, we are sometimes answering them ourselves with an intelligent answer? Once most of us calm down we see this clearly. Don’t give up hope on what you think is hopeless just because your friends and family cannot satisfy you with a quality answer. Try talking to yourself through your physical hands. Who knows.....your hands may just be the best friends you’ve ever had in life.
cinadanni24 Boyfriend/ Girlfriend Thang! Dec 11, 2008 6:58 PM what's the purpose of a " relationship?" having a friend is a relationship...so is going "exclusive" a better phrase? well putting titles on (whatever it maybe) kinda come with a psychological sense of ownership, which can drive a man/some women crazy! just because he's charming, he makes you laugh, mom likes him, he brought you home to meet his family does not mean that you need to make him your boyfriend. all of that will be thrown out the window as soon as you make it "official" as some of us like to put it. Tell me if im wrong. when you and a guy/girl are just friends and kicking it, and his/her phone ring, and she doesn't answer u don't give a damn, but if it's your boyfriend/girlfriend, you are ready to attack : " how come you're not answering your phone?!!" I used to be that girl. I had to be in a relationship, and I was so insecure...that's not a good combination. If you're insecure, a relationship is not what you need. Now I would rather just have friends. I have a lot of goals i need to accomplish, i know it will be even harder being in a relationship, i won't be focused on my goals. So I'll leave you guys with this: The lonely are the most successful people. why? because they didn't have the bs holding them back. I'm not telling you to be lonely, but put your goals first, plant a foundation for you and if you don't have any kids, than you should definitely take the time to work on a better life. whether it's going back to school, or starting your own business, it's all time and energy consuming but its worth it. this was actually wrote out of anger...my relatives always tease me about not being able to keep a significant other, so the hell what!!! I'm cool with that, I just can't accept a lot of bs... Single & Drama Free ;-)
cinadanni24 who says guys and girls can't be strictly friends?????? Jul 28, 2008 10:58 AM since i can remember i have always hung around guys...i was such the "tom boy" when i was a little girl, i wanted to do everything the boys did. I tried to follow my brother around with his friends but never succeeded with that. i hung with the fellas in elementary Charles and Louis( i had a huge crush on Louis), Junior High Charles and Louis (he was my bf by then), High School it was about 6-7 of us I was always the only girl and they treated me like a sister. Now this weekend one of the guys i used to hang with from HS called and asked me what i was doing...well actually texted. I wasn't doing any thing didn't have no plans. So we went to the bar and had a damn good time no attraction what so ever between the two of us...just old friends enjoying life, but why do people always assume that it's something going on? MEN and WOMEN can be friends!!!! I just wish folks would grow up and shut up.
