u/Proof-Training-740

I am looking to study BSc (honours) Psychology: D110, and the compulsory module D120.

When choosing the start date, it says I have selected both, however when I go to the next page, it’s telling me I’ve only selected D110.

Is this normal? I want to be studying both not just D110. Or do I need to contact the support team?

Thanks in advance

If anyone else has done this as well, what will they ask me? How long does it usually last?

I’m nervous they’re going to ask me something and I won’t be able to respond and I’ll make a fool of myself or mess up. I don’t expect it to be perfect, however I’m really anxious and if I don’t call tomorrow, I’ll have to re-apply for a referral since I’ve only been given 14 days to do it

I have a fear of sick with agoraphobia behaviour. I haven’t seen anyone in so long, I can barely leave my house for longer than 5 minutes without intense panic so I’m stressing.

It’s a sleepover at my home (which makes it better I guess) but I’m so nervous I can barely get out of bed because I’m so physically exhausted and I feel so nauseous. I’m worried because every single night without fail, I spend an hour feeling intensely nauseous and I’m scared it’ll happen when they’re at my home.

I feel like cancelling, I feel so physically unwell but I also know if I avoid it, it won’t do me any good.. and 2 days after it’s my birthday and I don’t do well on special occasions in case I’m sick so I’m panicking so badly.

To top this off, in a bit I need to call the NHS adult talking therapy service to book an appointment and I’m beyond nervous, I don’t know what they’ll ask me..

I’m exhausted of feeling this way all the time, I can barely make it through a day anymore. Any advice is welcome please:(

In 3 days, we are going to a sleepover with a friend we haven’t seen in over a year. Initially I said yes, but since then, my anxiety has kept getting worse and worse. I can’t go in the car nor a 10 minute walk without a panic attack. This is such a huge step out of my comfort zone. We discussed it together and she concludes it will be better if I go bécasse she doesn’t want to go without me + it’ll be good for me, but I’m so anxious.

I don’t know what to do or say. I feel like such a bad friend, if I say no, she’ll get annoyed at me and probably stop talking to me for a few days. she knows about my anxiety, and I don’t expect her to understand but I feel so stuck

I’m soo proud of myself, it was hard but I did it. It’s the walk back that makes me nervous.

How will I know when to increase the distance?

I got referred to talking therapy and on Monday, I’ll need to call to book an appointment for my assessment. I am terrified of phone calls. What will they ask me? What do I expect? How long will it take?

I’m guessing therapy will start within 6-10 weeks (estimate), but meanwhile I’m so stressed out. I have a specific phobia (phobia of being sick) with agoraphobia type and it feels horrible having to wait so long. I know nothing can be done to change that, but I can’t leave my house, I’m in fear all the time, I’m losing friends because I can’t see them, I haven’t seen my mum in 6 months because I’m too afraid to leave my house, I can’t spend quality time with those I love and I’m losing it. I’m so frustrated, angry, upset, and exhausted knowing this is my life. I no longer feel like doing anything and the feeling is just eating away and I can’t bear it. I feel so restless all the time, I can’t sleep, and it’s so uncomfortable.

How long is the entire process going to take? Has therapy been useful? How long did it take to see a difference?

Any advice/info will be SO appreciated. I’m stressed so much about this entire process.

I’m being referred within the next 6-8 weeks.

I’ve developed agoraphobia on top of this which makes it hard to function. I’m honestly missing out on so much in my life and I can’t take it any longer, I want my life back.

Just wondering if this has helped anyone or what I should expect from it? I also have social anxiety and I’m feeling so overwhelmed by the amount of work I’m going to have to put it.

How did it help with your body’s response to feeling nauseous? As soon as I feel sick, my body shuts down. I’m worried about the time it will take to get a referral, it’s so scary.

I turn 18 in 2 weeks and it has occurred to me how much life I have actually missed out on. My life for the past 2-3 years has been a total repeat of the day before, like a never ending loop.

I have Emetophobia and Agoraphobia on top of it which makes this so much harder to practice but whenever I speak to people, my mind goes completely blank, I can’t get out my words, my voice cracks, croaks, changes pitches, I get so nervous, and I can only spit out a few words. It feels like even saying those words, I have to really force them out and it takes so much energy.

What’s some advice? I’ve heard some people say talk slower but it hasn’t seemed to help. I’m totally fine online such as calls, but in real life is another story

I am afraid to leave the house in case I feel sick and get trapped and I am unable to escape. Even short walks give me intense anxiety simply by being away from home and not being able to get back immediately.

I am missing out on so much in my life like making friends, experience, activities, travelling, or spending time with my parents (I haven’t see my mother in 6 months because I’m just too scared to leave the house). I’m afraid to see my friends or simple things like going in the car to go shopping. I have social anxiety on top of this too, so it’s a triple the challenge

I am being referred for therapy within the next 6 weeks but I just want to know I’m not alone, or if anyone has any advice. My biggest and only wish is to be able to live my life how it was before, and I pray the rest of my life doesn’t look like this. I turn 18 in a few days. I feel upset that I’ve wasted my childhood

I feel constantly sick from anxiety which doesn’t help my fear of being sick. I think I’d honestly rather die than be sick. I am always so anxious and it’s making me lose all my will and motivation to even get out of bed because everyday for the last 3 years has been a repeat of the last. I’m so incredibly exhausted of it, I envy those who will never experience this

I am really struggling, so any advice will be appreciated.

I have a phobia of throwing up, I feel sick and unwell basically all the time which then causes anxiety and the loop goes on. Due to this, I have also developed agoraphobia. I can’t leave my house without intense anxiety. I have not been able to see friends, go out to restaurants or see my mum for 5 months because I’m too afraid to leave my house.

I’ve been referred for talking therapy which will likely start in the next 6 weeks. Meanwhile, I have a GP appointment every 2 weeks. I’m really struggling. Most of the day I’m anxious and feeling unwell, and the time I want to relax the most, night-time, the anxiety gets even worse. I feel like I never get a break.

This anxiety is so distressing to experience, I don’t know how to get through the next few months of my life (since I’m guessing therapy won’t fix me straight away), and frankly, I don’t want to..

As soon as I feel unwell or sick, my body and brain shut down and go into full panic and I can’t take it. My doctor said an SSRI will be considered after we have tried everything but I’m barely making it through a day. I hate that this is my life, I can’t cope with it. I can’t see how I’m going to survive the next few months. I’d rather die than feel the stress of this all the time, not actually, but it feels cruel to be this anxious.

What do I do? I’m so stressed please

I loved C+P and KB, so I’m a bit disappointed so far. So many people have recommended this novel to me, but I can’t make it through the first few chapters and I have to keep re-reading because I start to read with my eyes, and not my brain.

Does anyone else feel like this? I know typically, it takes longer to get into the books but I can’t make sense of much, I’m worried that I’ll miss important parts.

I texted him 4 days ago about this since I can’t bear face-to-face conversations about this. He seemed to be okay with it. He sent me a link to a website about anxiety, but just told me I need to go out more and get my driving license.

I want to send him another text asking to take me to a doctor but I’m just scared about what he’s going to say or think of me. I don’t want him to worry for me or be disappointed.

I’ve got the message written out but I’m too afraid to send it :(

Edit: thank you for everyone who has commented, all the advice given has been so helpful. I asked my dad and he’s going to book me a doctors appointment for next week (hopefully). I’m so nervous but I’m excited to receive help.

I have had terrible anxiety for the last 8 months. I have found it so hard to leave the house over a fear of being sick, to go on car journeys, shopping, seeing friends etc. I have my good and bad days but in general, I am finding it so hard to make progress. I know how to do CBT and exposure however my anxiety is making it so hard to make solid progress. Just because one day I can go out, it doesn’t make the next day easier, in fact worse because I could be 1 time closer to being sick and just because it didn’t happen yesterday, it could happen today. As soon as I feel nauseous, I can’t explain the anxiety, it’s like I’m being tortured; as much as I want to escape this feeling, I can’t and sitting in that feeling is torture, the level of anxiety is so difficult to cope with.

No one understands. I told my dad, he just tells me I need to go out more. I told my friend, she says the same thing. I don’t expect anyone to understand but no one gets this level of anxiety. I also have social anxiety which makes it harder.

I can’t ask my dad to take me to a doctor, the amount of courage I built up to ask him, I just can’t ask again. I just wish to wake up and not feel this anxiety, to do things and enjoy it in the moment instead of dreading it, to be able to experience life, meet people, join clubs. My life is so isolated and it’s making me sad about wasting my life.

Does anyone have any advice? I don’t know where to go from here, I feel kind of empty and exhausted

I haven’t drunk in a while but I do remember the last time I had a hangover and the nausea was terrible. On Friday, me and my friend want to drink together and as much as I am excited, I can’t help but feel so nervous. I’m scared it won’t sit right with me or the anxiety will make me sick, or just in general, I’ll get really unwell. I’m thinking if I do end up being sick while I’m drunk, maybe I can get over my phobia but I’m not sure.

Does anyone have any advice? I don’t want my anxiety to get in the way of making memories or having fun.

Edit: thank you for everyones advice, I truly appreciate it so much

It’s day 2 of my period. Usually my periods aren’t too bad but I showered, got ready, got some water and had half a banana but it’s made my nausea so bad. I’m back in bed but I’m panicking and I can feel a panic attack coming along. I hate this so much, I don’t know what to do, my stomach was already in pain from standing, but I’m dizzy and weak, please I don’t want to be sick, I’d literally do anything. I’m afraid to take meds, I don’t want to tell anyone who’s home, please what do I do, I’m panicking so much please

In the last 7 months, my fear of being sick as grown and grown. I’m scared of leaving the house, or not really that, more of what can happen to me while I’m out, for example: it’s the fear of being sick while I’m out, losing control, having the sensations that throw me over the edge, trying to pretend you’re not going insane so no one notices, feeling so nauseous, dizzy, feeling like you’re suffocating because you can’t control it, being away from home and comfort, and it feels like you’re trapped, stuck in this sensation. Then I go home, and just the thought of going out again makes me feel sick to my stomach.

I feel so exhausted of trying, exposing myself to situations and the anxiety never going away. On a good day, I can function, others it feels impossible to fathom. I’m scared I’m going to lose my friends if I continue like this, and one has already told me that if I continue, it won’t be a shock. My friend is sleeping at my house in 2 days for 3 nights and the thought makes me dizzy. We are having a shopping day too; a year ago I’d be jumping in joy but I can’t help but dread it with everything in me. She is going to be so disappointed in me, I can’t cope with this. The last time she came over, the entire time I was forcing myself to not throw up and I couldn’t enjoy the time we had together.

No one understand what it’s like to be in my shoes, I’d never wish this on my worst enemy. My friend tells me a doctor will be useless, NHS therapy won’t be worth it, all I need to do is expose myself but the bravery and willpower it takes is something I don’t have, I’m so exhausted. I want my life back, I’m so sad and disappointed in myself. I wish I felt normal.

When does it get better? Please how do I help myself? I’m open to any advice - thank you so much in advance.

A 10 minute walk is okay, anything over is so overwhelming. Whenever I try to go out in the car, I feel increasingly sick, weak, dizzy, and I know I need to sit in the feeling and be uncomfortable but it’s the anticipation of that and the worry of potentially being ill while out (from illness or anxiety) that I just can’t’ do it and I know it will happen because the anxiety always makes me nearly throw up when I go out.

in 5 minutes, I need to go out for 1hr and I’m so dizzy, my stomach has cramps, I feel so sick and I’m wondering if this will ever go away?

I don’t know what to do, I’m panicking so much. I’ve got so many events this month too and they’re big events. Sorry this isn’t written well, I’m panicking and in a rush

But if anyone has been in this situation, what has helped you? I’m open to any advice please
