Blue.

I feel so sluggish today... But actually ever since I started school, I haven't felt like myself. My relationships (particularly the one with my boyfriend!) are suffering because of it. He doesn't understand what I am going through, and I'm not sure I do either. He suggested we go to a party last night and I seriously dragged myself there... only to find myself being miserable in the corner. I felt guilt/anxiety/stress because I wasn't studying. I feel like I need him for support 24/7, and when he doesn't understand me, I get angry with him. It is putting a strain on us. Perhaps today is just a particularly bad day (although I dont know why?..)but I feel very blah... Its 4pm and I havent even opened my books yet!

I have a doctors appointment at the end of October, but I'm not sure I can wait that long for some relief.:imbar

I'd suggest calling the doctor's office and ask to be put on the cancellation list, in case someone cancels.

I think it's pretty common for people to feel overwhelmed at the start of the school year, but just in case something is medically (or psychiatrically like depression or anxiety) is wrong, try to get into the doctor.

I get nervous too about things like Am I studying enough? Will I do good enough to get into the nursing programs? Should I re write my notes?

I've researched on the internet ways of retaining things you learn and tis been helpful.

Hang in there!
