May. 19th, 2002 04:17 pmso what do I do now?
I don't have time to study much or finish the project due Tuesday (the one due tomorrow is almost done, yay!) ... I have procrastinated due to extreme anxiety -- like attacks -- about not understanding things. Totally irresponsible, I know.
SO do I pull the "psychiatric card" on the 2 professors, say, look, I have chronic anxiety and depression, yes I have good treatments but sometimes that isn't enough, yes I am going to seek therapy for it over the summer, but NO I won't be rerady for your exam? Should I just take it and take my lumps, what should I do????
Or have a complete fall-apart session and get my psychiatrist to call them?
Or do I pull the card after the exam, "look, I have these problems, but I didn't want to get excused out of the exam, but I know I didn't do well... and yes, I am going to seek Tx ove rthe summer and will you please be nice to me when grading?"
Or do I just take my lumps without trying to explain it all?
I'm not a kid; I'm a 38 year old woman. But an utter failure at employment, and now at school. I _used_ to be really good at school. Now I'm not
