Worst Meltdown Ever

Post Reply New Topic

Well, worst in a long while.
I had to do this insane assignment for my math class online, and it required that I do these idiotically tedious problems. I'm tired, stressed, have a final to study for and a paper to write, and I can't get the homework done because it takes me 12 times to get one problem right!
I spent 5 hours on it. Around the last hour, I lost it. I was about to explode. Noise. My clothes uncomfortable. Stress. People around. Those STUPID math problems.

I got to a bathroom because I was about to throw my computer across the room. I paced, rocked, spun, cursed, cried, bit myself, flapped, hit myself, like nothing else.
I've never had a bruise from banging my head, but now my forehead has a nice one. I think stress is cumulative, because this was really bad.

And of course, I'm pulling an all nighter. I hope there's no round two tomorrow.
My teacher might just have to let me take my final in a quiet room.

Just ranting. I feel like ****.

This is one of thsoe times you prioritize. I say skip out on the math or do everything else before it if you want to do everything. I'm sure explaining the frustration that the math caused will make your math teacher more sympathetic to a late turn-in.

Sorry you had to deal with that...I can kind of relate, I had a simular experiance yesterday but it wasn't a meltdown, it was related to another issue, though I've had meltdowns to. But yeah I understand the need to vent, that can help sometimes and I hope you're feeling a bit better. And unfortunatly I don't really have any helpful advice really.

I appreciate the responses.

The prioritizing thing, though, is tough. I have OCD as well, and that means that I HAVE to finish it. Have to. No choice.

I am feeling better, though. I was only embarrassed because I was around people...
