i had this presentation today at uni, a very normal presentation that i didn’t even have to prepare i just had to explain what i’ve done in this project. I’ve always SUCKED at public speaking, i get really nervous my voice starts shaking alot alot, it‘s bad. But for some reason since i’m at uni i dont suck so much i can get through the daily presentations without overthinking what i’m going to say. I even joined theater group i’m going insane for public speaking. And sudfenly today at this presentation my voice started trembeling really bad, but next level, i dont think it had ever gotten this terrible, and my hands were shaking and i repeated myself soso much and i swear i wasnt even nervous i dont know what happened, and i dont remember anything i said and i had to apologize multiple times during the presentation cause i didnt know what to say and words werent coming out of my mouth i feel so embaressed, i felt 12 again. And now i feel so embarressed to talk to my clasmates bc they dont know me, like if i had that happend to me in high school it was way less embarrassing cause they already thought i was a loser but at uni i was doing great with people. I dont think anyone is gonna remember this for much longer than a week but it was really bad guys, if i saw someone else do that i would for sure talk about it with my friends, and of course feel bad for that person but i reslly dont want people feeling bad for me or making fun of me. But this week i’ve slept 2 hours a day because i had so much homework and projects (including the one i had to present today) so i’m blaiming it on that. Omgomg i just keep getting flashbacks i want to die so bad. And i keep rethinking my existance cause wtf am i doing in a theater group when i cant even talk in front of 20 people OGMOGM AAADHHGGHH!

talk yourself through this as if you’re talking to the like 15 or 17 year old version of yourself! everything is going to be okay and however you’re feeling is valid. don’t worry about solving anything relating to that situation — focus this week on (1) getting sleep (2) eating to fuel your mind and body, you know: veggies, carbs, and lil protein ♥ and also a lil somethin sweet for the soul ~•~ once you feel like you’re grounded and well rested, then take action if you need to — but i promise just laughing it off and taking care of yourself will see you through this!!! ♥ ♥ ♥

I‘m going insane because im so scared about it. I am scared im going to embarrass myself. I am scared im going to be lonely. I’m scared im going to fall in with the wrong people. Im scared of detachment and scared of new teachers. I’m scared im going to look stupid next to all the people there cuz its a really good school. I dont know how i got in im only good in math. 💔 this has been a lil dump cuz im so anxious all the time 😭🥲

had an anxiety attack for the first time in my life today - at least i think it was an anxiety attack - i had a tight feeling in my chest for ages and i was shivering uncontrollably and then i started to not be able to breathe and i was crying - there wasn’t even one thing that set it off i think just general anxiety about my insane workload and atruggling to make friends in college and just feeling so alone - anyway it was one of the worst experiences of my life and my chest still feels tight and i don’t know what to do i still have to write an eight page essay to write - anyway any tips for dealing with anxiety attacks i would love to know …

Not very cool girl of me but i’ve been meaning to watch the movies since forever and i couldn’t find them anywhere. So i found the audiobooks on spotify and here we are, listening to a grown man do weird voices for nine hours.
