This semester for the most part has been good. I started taking meds about a month into the semester and wow my tests grades changed dramatically. My first test in Calc III was a 75 and then it went to a 97 and a 90.
Currently I am trying to keep an A in the class but this last section of stuff that we have been dealing with has made me so frustrated I cant even see straight.
Well today was the breaking point, I worked for three hours and got no where on my review set (Double integrals). That just upset me to no end, I know the concepts of the integrals but forgot how to integrate some of the more complicated things. My wife was trying to help me out and telling me to take a break or call an friend for some help but I didnt want to hear it. I didnt have time to take a break. I went down stairs and slammed the door to the bonus room (computer/study room). I couldnt find a quiet corner fast enough and just broke down in the hall way.
I guess I just cracked under the pressure that I put on my self to do well especially on this test. I just cant take not doing well on this test since I have done so well on the others. Bad thing is I hate putting my wife though this because I know she feels helpless, both when it comes to helping me with my work and with me emotionally.
I just dont know what to do, I want to do well but hours and hours to trying have got me nowhere. I just get a feeling of helpless ness, I cant help myself and cant find anybody to help me.
Anybody else ever break under their own pressue?
Also any help with integrals would be much appreciated.
