Hi Amy,

Sorry to hear that you're having a rough time. I can totally relate to how you're feeling. It's really tough.

Is there someone that you can go with to uni so that you can lean on them for support? Do you have a tutor that you can talk to explain what you're going through? They can perhaps offer some additional help with what you may have missed & also cut you some slack going forward.

In addition to this perhaps you should take a visit to your GP for some advice.

I wish that I could offer some magic advice but I'm having a rough time myself at the moment.

Take care

Kel

Hey

I had trouble when I first started uni a couple of years ago, and my anxiety made the first few months very difficult. I kind of missed out on all the socialising and making friends part which I really hate myself for now.

I did the wrong thing and thought I could deal with it myself but for me that wasn't the best thing to do. I'd recommend you speak to someone at uni.. Don't know what your uni has but at mine we had course leaders and a dropin for any students needing help, they pointed me in the right direction when I finally plucked the courage to seek help..

As for the three weeks you've missed, they'll probably be understanding and help you catch up :)

Hope you get sorted ok :) xx
