Thank you for sharing. What you are experiencing can happen when you are studying under constant pressure and doing something you don’t feel connected to.
Try not to look at the entire course as one big task. Take one small step at a time.
* Divide your syllabus into very small, manageable tasks.
* Start with just 20–30 minutes of study, followed by a short break.
* Set one achievable target rather than thinking, “I have to finish everything.”
* Notice which subjects/topics feel easier and begin there to build momentum.
* Most importantly, try to change the mindset from “I don’t like this, so I can’t understand it” to “I may not enjoy this, but I can learn it one step at a time.”
When we approach a task with strong resistance and fear, concentration can become much more difficult. Be patient with yourself rather than criticising yourself.
If the nausea, shaking, breathing difficulty, crying spells, exhaustion, or withdrawal from others are frequent or interfering significantly with your daily life, please consider speaking with a psychologist/counsellor for a proper assessment and support.
