I have to have a test next week that just utterly freaks me out and sends my mind headlong into a dark and horrible place. I can't sleep and my life just seems to have come to a standstill and I am imaging the most horrible outcome imaginable. Thanks for this advice.

Oh my gosh - I hear you. Time really does seem to stand still, doesn't it? I hope these skills were able to help you, even if just a bit. I hope you're through the worst of it now. Sending you peace.❤‍🩹
