I'm not sure whats going on with me lately. In about 3 weeks I will be going onto my externship for dental assisting school and I AM SUPER SUPER NERVOUS!! I don't think I have ever been this nervous for anything in my life. I can't concentrate at all, i have a horrible feeling in my stomach that WILL NOT go away, I can't sit still, I don't really have an appetite at all, I always feel like something bad is going to happen and I am very irritable. I’ve felt like this before but its usually one or two days before I have to do something I’m nervous about. This started about a week ago and I don't know what to do to calm myself down. I'm not sure if this is anxiety or what but any help would be awesome!

definitely anxiety. if you can't control the feelings on your own then maybe go to a doc and get meds for a little while

Any changes in your life causes major stress. It sounds like that dental program is doing it. Just try to calm down and make things less complicated around you. Also learn to meditate and go on long walks.

as said before try relaxation but if it does not work for u try going to the doctor and ask for a beta blocker this works well with situations like this it will calm u down and relax u

Okay thank you a lot. I don't like going to the doctor so I think I will try the long walk thing hehe
