Hey, im about to go into my final year studying Psychology and wanted to know if there is any other people who have gone through Uni with problems with anxiety. I have managed through the first couple of years but I have a huge problem with relaxing in lectures and classroom settings which inhibits me quite a bit. Any advice on surviving my final and most important year? Just to say I already meet with a mental health advisor once a week to and have some therapy based around CBT.
Hey, I'm about to go into my final year too! I do Sport Coaching combined with Psychology First year I used to struggle sitting through a whole lecture without a panic attack, but last year I was a lot better. The DSA got me a dictaphone and a program for my laptop so days when I couldn't relax I could just sit there and replay it later. My lecturers also know so they are a bit leniant with work deadlines. I also sit near the exit which in itself relaxes me. Or having a friend who kind of understands, because then you can have study sessions and talk about the work. I've tried numerous medications and natural remedies to try and relax me too. To be honest I'm a bit worried aboiut the final year too, but you just got to think that you've got this far! Good luck
Cheers amy. Your situation seems pretty similar to mine, like you most my teachers know me pretty well so they are leniant in some repects. Just getting a bit worried as i need to be at my best next year!
