How to handle testing anxiety?!
Question: How to handle testing anxiety.?
I have mild anxiety. Most days I have no problems, but other days I feel very overwhelmed. I want to take a test to get my degree, I just am overcome with anxiety. The idea of taking the test (which is a retest btw. I passed the first part and I have to retake the second part.) is amplifying my anxiety.
If I don't pass this time, I would have to go back to school for a refresher course, at least 80 more hours. This environment is not the friendliest. Which I realize is probably the main contributor to my anxiety.
How do I get over this and go on with my life and pursue the career I worked so hard to achieve.?
Please do not suggest meds. They do not work. I have tried different kinds of meds, to no avail. Thanks in advance!Health Question & Answer
