Did you have a “bad” semester in college?
I’m trying to stay positive about this but it’s very difficult. It’s nearly finals time so there isn’t anything I can do about it now but study. My lowest grade is a C which I know isn’t bad but I’m in the honors/advanced program at my university so I’m held to a higher standard.
At the beginning of this semester my mental state absolute crumbled and a few weeks ago I was diagnosed with moderate depression and general anxiety disorder. I’ve since gone off of the medication I was on that I suspected was causing it and now I don’t feel a lack of motivation from depression. But now that I have energy again, my anxiety that’s always been there is taking over.
I’m able to focus in class and motivate myself to study now but my thoughts still become overwhelming so I often have to take breaks. I’m confident that I won’t make lower than a C but I’m entering my junior year in the fall and I’m worried about my GPA and staying in this program.
So my MAIN QUESTION is: If you attended university, did you have an “off” semester where it felt like everything was going to shit and your grades slipped a bit? And how did it impact you overall?
