Cracking under the pressure

I was wondering how do you guys cope with the pressure of everything? :'(  :tickedoff: :'(   :tickedoff::'(
I'm really struggling with everything at the moment, I get stress induced headaches at least twice a day. :buck2:

Any suggestions from past students or current ones...
Anybody??  :(

I had really bad headaches all the time a few weeks ago, but then i just started sleeping heaps every night at the expense of study. You feel a lot better and more fresh. If you're already sleeping heaps, then i dunno. Drink lots of water?

I feel like I have a permanent headache whenever I sit down at my desk to do work... Probably caused by lack of sleep. :(

Well whenever I try to go to sleep I can't because I feel guilty for wasting a year that could have been studying for exams..... I feel that there is no way for me to improve in 23 days and its corrupting my mind.....
I wasted my holidays playing COD (great time to become addicted amirite??) and am never playing it again....... well probably not until after exams.....

Just calm down... who knows? You could do better on the exam if you're chilled out with less study, than if you were crammed + no sleep + stressed + worried + all the rest

sleep deprivation and headaches are killing me lately.  i used to easily be able to study for full days.  now, after 2 practice exams, all i want to do is sleep.

english and englang are stressful to say the least. 

i reckon if i could somehow get decent sleep things would get better...

sleep patterns are completely screwed too
