Maladaptive Daydreaming: where wild minds come to rest

Score one for honesty!

I took a chance and emailed my prof about my anxiety and told her how bad the smacking is. I didn’t say it was her that was smacking so much, only “people in class”. I had mentioned it briefly on the first day, so she would know why if I was flinching or covering my ears. I told her it’s not a good idea for me to do a presentation with my anxiety, and to my surprise, she understood. I told her I’d like to do another assignment but would take the grade deduction if necessary. She seems open to doing another assignment. *fingers crossed* Hopefully this works out. Even knowing I have a presentation looming weeks away was causing me to panic. Whew.

As for me I have to make an oral presentation on Monday for my Business Communication class, and since it's about learning to communicate in the business world I have to. D:
