Anxiety... Endless Anxiety

Just quarantine things...

Anxiety... Endless Anxiety
https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/can-exercise-help-treat-anxiety-2019102418096

Anxiety is something that is part of my life it isn't really bad and I only seem to have an anxiety attack right before something I can't predict.

Ever since the Pandemic and quarantine, I have been having an unless rollercoaster of emotions especially anxiety. To be honest this whole thing stresses me out and I bet it is to everyone else in the world. I want things to go back to normal and I want to hang out with my friends without worrying about a scary virus. When I have anxiety it makes my stomach hurt and makes me want to just sleep and not eat. I am a huge over-thinker and I know that is why my anxiety gets really bad sometimes.

Being stuck within my apartment with my parents isn't helping either. And to add to all the mess of being stuck at home there is school. I have been doing online school for a month and a half which doesn't sound that bad and the work isn't hard. But I feel like I have learned nothing. I am a very visual and active learner who has to learn in person to really understand something so this whole online experience hasn't been my friend. I feel like I am relying too much on my computer and the internet than my brain. Everything is just stressful and I can't wait for summer but will summer really be fun this year? I probably still be stuck at home but maybe get to hang out with a few friends but that is only if I am lucky.

The only bright side of this whole situation is that I get a chance to think and figure out who I am and how to help myself. I have tried meditation and yoga to help with my stress and I believe it is working.

For right now the only best thing to do is stay healthy and look for a better future.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
