i’ve struggled with fluctuating anxiety for as long as i can remember and i’m currently in a bad spot with (mock) exams approaching in a little over a week-i am terrified,like,even thinking about them gives me massive anxiety.being in silent rooms gives me SO much anxiety since i worry that my stomach will make a loud noise or,even worse,that i’ll be physically sick.also,being in classrooms in general makes me anxious however the thing that takes my mind off it is the ability to talk to my friends and knowing that i can leave the room without ‘causing a scene’.i figured out a while ago that most if not all of my anxieties stem from this fear of embarrassment which is only worsened by the fact that my anxiety triggers my ibs and i feel like i’m on my own in trying to help myself;i don’t think i’ll be able to get through this without having a monumentally embarrassing panic attack.i suppose i’m just posting this in here looking for advice on what i can do in the next week to try and get my anxiety to a more manageable point (a huge feat to achieve in such a small amount of time,i know).i’ve been trying to rationalise it in my head but i can’t,any advice is greatly appreciated x
