Having an information anxiety attack...

avatar

I've had a rather busy and energy-draining week. Although I had 3 days away from school thanks to a 2 days public holiday and a sick day leave, I've had a lot to keep up with since then.

I literally spent my 2 days vacation catering for a friend and playing mom. Couldn't get much done and now it feels like the world is moving without me.

My French classes are mentally draining. It's like every day I'm loaded with so much information and while I'm trying to fully assimilate it, the day ends and the next day there's more information I have to add to the previous one and everything just gets clustered in my head.

While trying to wrap my head around learning this new language, I come online and there's so much I have to understand to keep up with what exactly is going on in the community and then I just feel lost.

So much information in such a little while.

I usually feel this way sometimes and then I sleep it off because there's really not much I can do. While a lot of people come around saying I'm better off in terms of information access than many other people like me, I still feel like I could do better.

I strongly believe that conquering this language hurdle will help me conquer many other hurdles I've been avoiding. I don't know. It just seems like one of those difficult tasks that I leave after 2 months of trial and error.

I believe in taking things one step at a time, but then, these steps seem too slow and unproductive. However, I also feel like I'm making progress but then it's just never enough.

Today, I decided to add 2 new diplomas after I get the French Diploma in 4 months. I spoke to my mom about it and she seemed pleased with my decision and just offered her usual words of encouragement.

My current language course is setting her and my dad back by over $400. I know they consider this one of their last gifts to me, so I find myself searching for new ways to utilize it to the fullest.

I'm taking my first certificate exam in 2 weeks and my anxiety keeps increasing. I know I can get through this, however, I can't deny that I need to do more.

I sure hope I can keep up with everything. This overwhelming feeling gets me feeling numb and uncertain.
