J i thin its a defence mechanism to cope with the stress. I do the same thing. Infactfor the first time in a year im getting terrible OD cravings. Im sleeping loads too.

For some people the stress of an exam can spur them on and they work on the nervous adrenalin produced. For others its just too much and the brain shuts down and goes into protection mode.

Could this be whats happening here?

Jetforce · 07-06-2008, 12:46 PM

I dunno

I'm not stressed about the exam yet...matter fact i don't care about whether i wanna fail or pass atm...probably regret later on most likely

Oh well...we'll see wat happens i guess

Thx's for the reply matthew!

I know that feeling. It is truley awful to feel that way.
Try thinking a little more about things. What would taking an OD solve?
In the long run it just makes you feel worse much worse an usually more tired.
Have you tried other things which sometimes work to make yourself feel better. perhaps some me time where you look after yourself. Or make sure you are eating healthly as this can also affect mood levels.

Take care of yourself.

You aren't stupid Jem *hugs* I hope you have managed to resist the urges. Listen to the advice above, tis some good stuff. We would miss you if you weren't here x

hey jem.
have you been seeing that psych of yours lately? or a new one?
please don't OD. you know it won't help in the long run anyway. and we all know exams suck (cos i've been telling you this for like the past month :p) but just hang in there and they will be over soon as we can both relax. i know how it feels when your brain just shuts down and you don't want to think and you don't care if you passs or not but i guess we just have to try and do our best.
