Hi I'm new! I'm 21 and have just entered my third year at uni. I'm struggling. I have always had these problems but with the extra stress of being online they are much worse this year. One of my problems is that when writing notes from lectures and seminars, one spelling mistake, one "messy" word means I screw up and throw out the entire page, no matter how far down the page I am and how long its taken me. Sometimes I manage to move past it and carry on with the task but it continues to cause my anxiety and stress so I go back and remove the pages after that point.
This has obvious problems for my studying. Everything takes so long. I have tried writing in pencil (cant stand rubber marks). It also means I can't join study groups out of fear of falling behind or someone laughing at me. All this means I'm falling behind (causing more stress) so I'm desperate for help.
If anyone has any ideas or just support then please let me know.
