I learned some yrs ago and sort have forgotten them. I am coping okay, except at time with my homework, or doing my math homework on the computer. Yeah the computer.

It isnt the same as doing on paper, and the teacher doesnt teach it the way I learned yrs ago. Now I get confused. I told him off at the beginning of the semester in class. See what I mean by loosing it, no coping skills that day.

One coping skill I learned was deep breathing, when you get really anxious. You breathe in though your nose and hold it for about 3 to 4 seconds and then breathe out through your mouth slowly. Excersize is another great coping mecanism too. I wish you the best and good luck...

Google around for cognitive behavioural therapy.

Yes, CBT can help you re-learn the coping skills you are asking about here on the forums. I use to go to cognitive behavior therapy and it helped out a lot.
