Hi everyone! I'm a 14 year old, and I feel like I've just had one of the worst days in a while. I had my practice act tests today, and couldn't get even a wink of sleep last night due to anxiety and the physical symptoms that I got from it. I was having heart palpations, cold sweats, and racing thoughts all night. And I know it's normal to get anxious over a test, but I've never gotten like this before. And this morning, after no sleep I went into the test and I was hit with massive brain fog. Subjects that would've been a breeze with a full night's sleep were so difficult due to me trying to stay awake and I feel like I did so bad on my tests and im so disappointed in myself. I am so very disappointed in myself. I feel like my academic achievements are the only thing I have going for me, and I'm disappointed in myself for letting a mental illness get in the way of that for me. And I know I should be able to control it and I'm trying so hard to but it's just such a challenge .
