My main goal for this course was just to be there. My anxiety was so bad the past year an a half that I lost all hope thinking i can ever return to school or get a job. It was so sever that i couldn't leave my house for days which that would turn in to weeks. I would just sit in my house all day and all night watching netflix. I just started to feel better this year so to test out this new and strange feeling of being happy and motivated i took a summer course. Even though i went to every class my anxiety would act up during class but I stayed for the full class time. I am very proud of myself and this course gave me a positive out look on my anxiety. If i can stay in class for two and a half hours than maybe i can take a couple one hour classes in the fall and become a full student again. And that will hopefully make me feel great to get a 9 to 5 job. If i pass this class that would just be the icing on the cake. Like i said my main goal was just to show up every class for the full class time and do the work. I have been isolated from my peers because of my anxiety and i met new people in this class and now i feel more comfortable going out with my friends now and them knowing im back in school. Hopefully i wont be the butt of the joke anymore to my friends, them saying to me everyday that im wasting my life (which was true). I am glad i took this course in the summer, it gave me hope for the future.
