aside from actually studying to lessen exam anxiety the stress is starting to eat me up a little.
how do you constructively deal with this type of stress?.. |

You either know the material or you don't. I never worry about it, unless they are finals then I am freaking out.

Generally I just listen to music, and sleep.

Coffee (and lots of it. This probably won't work for you, as I drink coffee before bed. It's a bad habit.)
Sitting outside and reading something other than course work Going for walks at night with my headphones on

one way: i don't give a shit about the exam. i focus on what i'm going to do after-- like getting plastered, as t&b suggested. i don't mean don't study-- study, but just give it a "fuckit" attitude once you're there. always has worked for me-- i kick ass at exams even when i know little of the subject because i "stay loose" and my brain doesn't freeze due to nerves. and try to turn the anxiety into "excitement"-- a little stress makes you sharp, too much stress stupefies you. |

haha. Right on. I just don't care about that stuff. In highschool I would just do the damn things and forget about them. If I did worry at all, it'd get too much and I'd get nonchalant about the whole thing anyway.

don't look at the whole. pretend you are a shark and take tastey bites out of each task and then thrash around in the water.

i used to just load up on adderal and not sleep till the exams were over, then take xanax and sleep for a couple days straight.
now that im trying to be healthier i just dont procrastinate. but exams so suck, especially for gened classes that dont have anything to do with that you want to have a career in. sometimes i feel like im going to college just to get my degree to satisfy my parents and not get cut off, if i had it my way id just start seriously playin wit my band. but no rush i guess, im only 20.

I think you greatly misunderstand my concept of "high" here, I dont mean to judge, but that all sounds a little scary just for an exam. I agree with the suggestion above, the best way is to graduate, which after five years, I will be going in December. Take that America, a shiggity shat legit Rastaman, well eductated and degree-holding.

I feel the same way about college. Sometimes I think the stress is just too much for me, so I can't really give any advice on how ot deal with that either. Maybe I should major in something more useful than English. |
