So much to unpack

[AnxiousChick]

My new year started off with the realization that my student loans will only cover my last semester of school. I’m doing a thesis and my study is hard to recruit for… I’m on my 3rd year trying to finish. Truth is, I can’t afford to not get this degree. My line of credit is also maxed.

I had a baby in June and my partner has been supporting me since we met 10 years ago. That’s 2 university degrees and the current one. He doesn’t get my anxiety and is mad that it’s been taking me so long to get a good job— which I can’t even promise after I finish my degree.

So I’ve been fearing my anxiety will push me off a ledge and everyone will think I’m a loser if I drop my program. Not only that, but I have noooo idea how I’ll pay off all my debt.

What are your other 2 degrees in? Why would you have a hard time getting a job in your field?

I can understand your feelings, anxiety is a serious mental condition. We cannot ignore it, it should be get treated at the early stages otherwise it will affect your mental health very badly. I had been through this condition. I took the following steps towards my healthy life
Control Your Breath.
Try Exercise or Continuous Muscle Relaxation & deep breathing
Start Slow.
Take Focus On You try to learn about your triggers and how to control them.
Speak Back to Negative Thoughts.
Take the time to leave/let go of negative influences
Eat nutritious food.
Limit alcohol and caffeine, which can increase anxiety and cause panic attacks.
Get enough sleep
Exercise daily to make yourself fit and to maintain your health.
Do your best.
And last but not least Don't lose hope.
Best of luck. I hope this little piece of advice of mine will help you.

Science-based degrees but this masters is important to get THE job I want. Also, I did think about dropping out, but that would put up to $40k to waste.
