I feel the need to blink all the time

22F, 170cm/ 5'6, 115kg/ 250lbs

No medication, I don't smoke or take substances

Hi, for 2 weeks now I have been having trouble with excessive blinking. In the beggining I didn't notice it but I felt it hurts. After other people told me I was blinking too much I noticed it aswell. In the start I just felt pain in the eyes and thought it would pass, but now it's getting worse and I feel as if I have to be blinking all the time because it's uncomfortable otherwise. Sometimes I'm blinking literally all the time. The area around eyes hurts aswell, I'm guessing it's muscles because I'm literally pressing my eyes shut. Also I can't cry, I tried to but things that usually make me cry can't anymore. Eyes are a bit watery but no tears falling.

I also tried keeping them open on purpose but then it starts burning.

For the past week I've been using Thealoz duo eyedrops and it helps for few minutes and eyes don't burn anymore but very soon it's all over again. And even if it doesn't burn I still feel the need to blink. It's better in the morning but as the day goes on it hurts more and more and in the evening it gets unbearable.

It started when I went on sea vacation, also the AC was on all the time but I don't think it has to do with that because usually I'm fine with AC. Apartment was also very dusty so maybe that too. I noticed it gets worse when I start stressing about things, but I'm not under that much stress. I used to be under more stress and it didn't cause this, although I am quite anxious person.

Please help, it's sooo uncomfortable. I feel as if I want to take my eyes out:(

Why do my nails look like this?

What's this side part of nail, it's weaker than the rest and it' bothering me a bit. Can i get rid of it somehow?

Also, why are my nail wider at the top. Thumb is normal but the rest are wider the more they grow.

I used to bite nails, but I haven't for a little over a month, so idk if it has anything to do with that.

I have oral exam and I don't know ANYTHING

Hey yall, so I have histology oral exam soon and I don't know literally anything, and I'm not overreacting. The worst part is I had time to study, I could've got an A.

Usually I would skip it, but if I don't pass I won't get into dorms, so it's kinda serious. Is it stupid if I show up there but still don't know anything, or should I just skip it?

There are a few questions I could answer but for most of them I wouldn't even know what to say.

Have I stolen from church?

I had mass and after it I was passing by the table in the church entrance and I took that prayer on little paper (I don't know how else to describe it). I took it but didn't put any money. There was cup with few cents inside but I didn't put anything in. There were 2 other people who took it and didn't put anything in so I thought it was fine, but now I feel like I should've put something in. And it's not like I didn't have money, I did, but in the moment I just thought it's fine but then later I felt bad. Is it stealing and should I confess it in my next confession?

I am going to medschool and currently I am repeating 2nd year of college. But I told my parents that I 'm actually in 3rd year. The plan was to keep lying for a while and then just say I failed 3rd year so basically things would be mostly be the same but a year later. I also lied about having 2 subjects this year that I actually don't have, so basically I would be in dorms not even going to college since I'm repeating 2nd year.

The problem is I thought I could continue lying but I can't. I feel so guilty, especially since they're paying everything and they're really good people and parents. I feel so guilty I disappointed them but it is what it is. I'm scared this will do irreparable damage to our relationship. I also lied to my siblings and I just feel I disappointed everyone.

So what should I do now? Should I tell them the truth and how should I do it? Please help, I'm really desperate.
