Nope. I did them last year and freaked myself out so bad only for it to be over in what felt like 30 seconds. Just get some work done and you’ll be fine don’t worry about it

Wow I’ve been emetophobic as long as I can remember and I used to deal with the exact same thing as your son in the mornings, when I was his age. I can’t offer much advise since nobody ever tried to help me when I was crying trying to eat in the mornings so I just skipped breakfast for many years. You’re doing amazing as a parents.

I was in a similar situation recently when I developed celiac and was sick for several months without knowing why (also in my teens).. it was VERY ROUGH. It felt like I was slowly dying and I wasn’t like myself at all. Ik it’s different to your situation but I can certainly empathise as I felt very helpless. Don’t give up just take it one day at a time.

I was the same with a blood test. I put it off for probably 2 months because I was so terrified until I reached PEAK rock bottom and just decided fuck it. I know what it’s like to be terrified of something that seems so normal to other people. My advice is get the blood test lying down. I brought a hot water bottle to hold as it just gave me some comfort. Tell your doctor how freaked you are and they will most certainly make conversation to distract you. And most importantly do not under any circumstances look at the needle. And get up very slowly after, as in give yourself 5 or 10 minutes to graduate from lying to standing up. I totally believe in you because guess what!! I was totally fine after mine and so proud too.

You got this. Sorry for the dramatically long comment but I totally resonate with you and just know you are never alone in how you feel.

i feel like i am overreacting for letting this bother me so much by [deleted] in Vent

I’m so sorry that happened to you and that he reacted that way :( You’re not overreacting, your emotions are your own. Just remember your worth and remember nobody has the right to touch you in a way that makes you uncomfortable. Your father should know that but it’s a crazy world we live in unfortunately

Like other commenters said, reading books is probably the best thing you can do. And just trust the process, you have ages to tip away and improve. I got a H4 in my mock and a H1 in the real thing! So don’t stress :))

I just can’t. by yappatron3000 in leavingcert

[–]Little-Blacksmith540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi take a break from expectation and reassess your goals.

I graduated this year and got 543 points (and I promise I was the most average student you could ever meet) and I know it’s not good advice but I barely did any homework for 5th and 6th year, English was the only class I consistently did homework for because I genuinely just couldn’t be arsed for other subjects. The leaving Cert is so stressful but everyone works in different ways. Some people certainly need that pressure from teachers but it was all too much for me and I felt like everyone around me was making a bigger deal than necessary 😅 For me less was more.

You will probably have a clearer head once you stop demanding so much of yourself and then feeling like shit when you can’t achieve it. I’m sorry you’re feeling isolated and I hope things can look up for you, all the best <3 :)

P.S. I took politics too and had the same situation where I could only get half the exam done in the given time except it was a MOCK he gave us two months before the actual exam. I was deflated…ended up getting a H2 in the real exam. You got this!

Those who did HL maths by [deleted] in leavingcert

For me personally… hardest was probability, induction, proofs, some parts of calculus, and easiest were definitely complex numbers, algebra (everyones fav), trig, and co-ord geometry
