Nerves or not

Every-time I’m in my exam around half way through I feel almost as if I forget to swallow and it’s really hard to, my throat feels tight and closed and I get all fidgety and hot!!
Initially I thought this was because I had chewing gum in and thought my mouth was really dry so for the next exam I took in a bottle of water, but it’s happened again (without a chewy too). I don’t feel nervous though, I sit at the front and can’t see anything!
I spoke to my mum about it and she said it was like subconscious nerves… I just hate it.

It sounds like these exams have been really stressful for you. Are you making sure you have time to relax and do things you enjoy? Do you talk to your loved ones about how you're feeling?

I do have breaks in terms of revision and wind down at night by watching something I enjoy, I have only told my mum about the exam thing but that’s about it…
