I've had one final so far. And studied very much over the weekend.
I'm taking more classes over the summer to make up for what I didn't take this year. I was diagnosed with my first episode last year and missed a lot of my classes so I had to drop them. It was weird, I just stopped going to my classes. Or I would sleep through them. For one class I wopuld always arrive late. And one time I arrived ten minutes before it ended. It was a small english class and my teacher was mad and so were my classmates.
Another english class was a small group of students that focused mainly on the group discussion and class participation. I almost drowned! Everytime I would talk I'd think people were laughing at me. I would act frusterated and spoke slowly and it disrupted the class. It just got so awful to handle and I had to drop it and never go back there.
As you may have guessed I have social anxiety and social paranoia. I was also first diagnosed with my first psychotic episode last fall and had to start taking medication. I have been getting better and progressing well. I am doing fabulously now. I hope it never happens again, It was awful!
Thats all for now... Good luck with finals everyone.
