I really need advice on what to do. I have always been a straight A student, achieving a First class in first year doing Biochemistry. But second year started and my anxiety got worse; I stopped going out and isolated myself from people to avoid panic and interaction. My january exams start next week and although I know I can sit 2 of my core module exams, thinking about writing my optional module exam (between the 2) is making me want to throw up. I haven't been eating throughout semster 1 because this new module has given me so much anxiety especially when coming to lectures in a different department.
Yesterday, I went to see the university health service GP and cried out all my feelings and the anxiety issues that I've had throughout uni and that it's affecting my academic performance. They were very understanding and told me to come in for a blood test tomorrow and she'll book another appointment with me AFTER exams to speak about it.
I just cannot bear the thought of taking the opt module exam (Which is a day after my first core exam) but I don't know how to bring this up without sounding weak or an excuse?? Do I speak to my tutor/deparmtental director/GP BEFORE or AFTER I sit that exam??
Please help me with this ASAP, any advice would do
