Anxiety is a physical condition marked by intense and persistent feelings of distress, fear, angst or dread. General anxiety caused by routine day-to-day stresses usually passes quickly and is experienced by almost everyone at one time or another. However, such feelings that linger over time and are very difficult to cope with, and which lack a clear cause, may indicate...
Hey guys, I am graduating soon and i am beyond anxious and scared. I am graduating in something I lost my passion in and I am scared on what my life will look like once I graduate. It is very uncertain and it's causing me to live in a constant anxious state which is bringing me down emotionally and academically.

I did the dumbest thing today. I charged my earbuds, unplugged the block and put the block in my little bag instead of the earbuds. I wasn't happy about that when I got to the gym. What a dummy!

Ever since I stopped doing therapy because of insurance, I've been feeling that old tense and irritable sense of anxiety and stress. I hate that. I was making so many strides and changes during therapy, my therapist would acknowledge all of my progress and accomplishments, and I miss that reassurance. Today I thought about it, and I made those changes! She would always tell me that I chose to...

Is "Senioritis" an official psych dx yet? Seems to me it is a fairly standard part of graduation from both HS and college. Just wondering. . .
I like to think of diplomas and degrees as building blocks which stand as proof that you can finish what you start and can ultimately fit into a wide array of building sites. Finishing your degree plan does not have to commit you to a lifetime any one job or career field. Personal growth allowed.
Whether you agree with that opinion or not, gentle support while you find your way through. Keep venting and sorting. Your answers are in there.
We can always apply those transferable skills and knowledge gained in college to anything we do. Learning how to problem solve, think critically, etc will serve you well no matter where you land.
Passion in a career path always is a head scratcher to me. I never know what it really feels like or means. . I work in legal/compliance. It’s not a vocation or a passion. It’s interesting work that allows me to protect and advocate for my company’s interest. It’s hardly god’s work but I’m good at it and that’s about as much passion as I can feel about it. Now, love, relationships, delicious food, travel, good conversation, THAT I feel passionate about.
The unknown is scary but it also frees you up to take time to explore your options. You are ok!
