Hello. You are feeling tensed because of too reasons. One, the worry about exam results. Two, the guilt of wasting study time in things which can be done after the exams too. You may be indirectly avoiding studies by distracting yourself with all these things. And when it's the absolute 11th hour, it's easy to quickly skim through  studies and expect a performance good enough to pass the exams. Can you change this trend? Can you actually put aside distracting things and take on the hard work of preparing for the exams thoroughly? You certainly can.
Next Steps
Reduce the time spent in distractions. You don't have to stop them altogether, just reduce the time gradually each day. After every hour of study, reward yourself with a break. More importantly, let go of any guilt about wasting study time. You are not a bad person for wasting time. Tell yourself, whatever time has been wasted in distractions is gone. Nothing can be done about it. Now, make sure you don't spend more time in activities that don't help you in the exams. Stop avoiding the hard work of studying and preparing for exams. The more you avoid, the harder it gets. Instead, take small bites at studies. Divide your studies into small, manageable chunks. Take up these chunks one by one. You will accomplish more this way. Once you start making these changes, your sleep will improve as a result of less and less tension. I hope this helps. Take care.

During exam periods Fix time limit of watching tv and internet surfing and using social media. Make a routine and strictly follow it until exams. Avoid too much social media. Accept reality and tell ur girlfriend that call or chatting may occur after exam also but if this time is gone then it never come to solve ur disappoinment.
