Why am I so nervous?


Question Posted Thursday May 25 2006, 9:25 pm

It's so weird, for some reason tonight, I'm so nervous, I can't eat, I can't sit still, and I keep on thinking about what's going to happen at school tomorrow.

The problem is, I have n-o-t-h-i-n-g to be nervous about.

Any advice on how to
a.) calm myself
b.) figure out why I'm so tense/nervous

Thanks!

Anyone can really get nervous about nothing, it can be caused by alot of things. Too much caffeine, being over tired, etc. Just try to lay down and maybe watch a movie or something, it may seem as though you could never sit down at this point because you're too anxious, but try it, it works for me.

maybe you think something will happen at school, and it's making you nervous. try taking a long bath to clear your mind of worries. maybe you were stressed out the day before, and it's all the adrenaline is building up so you're worrying about nothing.

I have the same exact problem! It sounds like your have high anxiety. It's common in most people, and stress, depression, and mental tension can be factors. Ways to calm youself down would be to take Melatonin pills, which mellow you out and relax you. You can get these at any drugstore! And you can also try meditating by lighting a few candles around you and take deep breaths. This works also, I tried it myself.

You know what? I can actually relate to your prob....
I used to be a worrywart before, too!!!!
But dearie, don't waste your time and energy thinking and worrying about the UNKNOWN. Don't be such a paranoid because you might lose focus on the things that you should Really be worrying about.

Why don't you try out a new hobby? Or watch a new movie? That way, you'd forget about all your "worries of the unknown".

Try this one, too(it might help you a lil' bit cuz it helped me before) : every night, when you take a last glance of yourself in the mirror before going to sleep, tell yourself, "Stop worrying (insert your name here)! Nothing wrong's gonna happen! Everything.Will.Be.Fine." Do this in the morning, too. You'll see good results after a few days, trust me.

Hope I helped you a lil' bit!

This happened to me all the time in my school days. I was nervous that I didn't have all of my homework finished, or that there was a test.
Make a list of things that you had to do. Then cross out each thing that you have completed. This might 1) help you see something that you have not finished, and your subconcios is trying to tell you that. 2) see that you are all set for tomorrow.

To relax listen to some calming female vocals like: Neko Case, Cat Power or Imogen Heap.
Lie down and breathe deeply.

You are probably so nervous because it is the end of the year.
