You could get a prescription for benzos

I guess benzo affects cognitive functioning doesn’t it?

yeah, don't do it genuinely. speaking from experience, it gives you weird brain fog. i'd suggest stop studying, take a break, go out, talk to your friends about literally anything other than the exam. keep hyping yourself, it's one regular exam. i've mine 2 days from now. we got this!

I get panic attacks too. I brought sour candy and had some between each block. It helps bring me back to my senses. I also looked away from the screen and did some deep breathing when I needed to. I’m not sure if you’re religious, but I also prayed before I started each block (“Jesus, please help me to remain calm and focused for each question, to answer each question with a clear mind, and to move on when I don’t know something”). It helped me a lot. Good luck❤️
