I got a break

Posted by Deneb on December 20, 2008, at 10:52:30

I was going to skip my exam and fail. I hadn't studied the last two thirds of the course.

My pdoc told me to study and I did in spurts, but it wasn't enough. I didn't start feeling better until recently.

Anyways, I thought I should try to get a note to defer the exam, it was a no lose situation, the worse that would happen would be that I wouldn't get the note. I was going to skip anyways, so I thought I should give it a try.

I was really good, the first thing I said was that I was NOT going to OD or hurt myself in any way, and that I completely understood if I didn't get the note. I was entirely prepared to fail and I was OK about it.

I only told the truth, I said I was feeling a lot better now, but my crisis and anxiety had prevented me from studying. I told the doc how I had gotten 97% on my first midterm and 50% on my next midterm.

I also told him why my pdoc wouldn't give me a note. I told him she thought it was avoidance.

The doc decided I should get a note to defer the exam because I was not able to study.

I am relieved that I may not have to fail the class now. Now I will study with no pressure.

I think my pdoc will be a little disappointed in me, but I think if I study now, maybe she will think it's OK.
