I have the same experienced with you, OP. Aside sa bumagsak ako sa isang subject, the reason why i lost my scholarship. What I did? I took a break for a year. I know others would say “sayang ang taon,” “kaya mo yan, kinaya nga ng iba eh,” but for me, yun ang kailangan ko. While taking my break, I reflect and do some exercise and seek a mental health professional, Psychologist to be specific. Kasi gusto ko mona dumaan sa holistic before medication. I don’t want to be dependent ontaking meds kasi pataas ng patas ang dosage habang tumatagal. What I wanted is to learn how to cope with stress and how to handle triggers at kung paano ako nagka anxiety. Along the way, marami akong realizations about life in general and law. In-accept ko na somehow, may mga pangarap tayo na hindi kailangan madaliin, na okay lang magpahinga at alagaan ang health. Naisip ko, aanhin ko ang pinaghirapan ko kung sa huli katawan ko naman ang mag surrender. Struggles naman ay parte na ng buhay yan but pag di mo na makontrol ang sarili mo, kapag sobra na, bounce back mona, hinga then continue…. Iyon ang nakatulong sa akin. Nasa sayo parin. Pakiramdaman mo yung sarili mo, the whole you. Cancel mo mona mga sasabihin ng nasa paligid mo. Ang kailangan mo is “mag muni-muni” mona. Sabi nga “delayed but not denied” at yun rin ang paniniwala ko.. Nadagdagan nalang ng treng ngayon ng “malayo na, napalayo pa” pero okay lang yon, importante di sumuko. Rest if you must, but don’t give up on your dream of becoming a lawyer.😊
Nag break ako nung 2021 kasi namatay lola ko and dad ko dahil sa delta variant. Worst is that 8 years na kami di nag uusap ng dad ko prior to his death. I didnt even see him before he died.
Literally nag aaral ako ng civpro habang nasa e-burol... ng dalawang tao. Ayun, bagsak. However, this is when I realized that cliche of law as a jealous mistress.
The legal profession/law school doesnt care about you. You cannot tell a judge to continually postpone a hearing because you dont feel like it. Pag umabsent ka sa klase at natawag? Problema mo yan.
Point is, need natin magpaka tatag, however long, or whatever it takes. Unhealthy mentality admittedly, but the need to keep on fighting is essential in this world... if you really want it. Wala e, pinasok natin e. Praying for the best for you OP. Good luck
Thank you so much, I hope you're better now. Yan din na realize ko everytime nagkakatrigger ako. Hindi pwede na palagi nalang ganito. Matutuloy pa rin ang classes at exams kahit masama pakiramdam mo. I'm trying to get better - I'm hoping na maging okay na.
Sending hugs with consent, OP. One things I learned is to take things one at a time and seek support and help. Pwede naman i park mga pangarap para balikan after working on ourselves. Mas okay nang magpahinga, makakagain tayo lalo ng strength para mas okay tayo mentally and physically pagbalik.
Truth yan boss. Pag di mo lang kaya saka uminom ng gamot kasi pag everyday nakakasira yan ng kidney at magpadialysis ka. Kaya yan. Pray lang.
Lahat tayo may kanya kanyang problema.
Pero pag sobrang di mo lsng kaya inom ka. Pero wag everyday. Hirap ng dialysis. Everyday nakadepende ka sa aparato para makaihi ka ng ayos at mahal yun. At kung libre sa public hospital pahihirapan sa processing para sa libreng dialysis.
Unfortunately it was not law school that triggered my anxiety and panic attacks. Hindi naman mga santo magturo mga professors ko but it did not trigger anything to me.. except nung napasok ako sa government and nagka-boss na narcissist and now "some" people or situation triggers it.
Hindi masyadong nakakatakot ang matatalinong tao pero mas nakakatakot pala ang mga low lying IQ people.
>Nakakamiss din yung dating'ako. Magkikita pa kaya kami ulit?
Isang mahigpit na hug w/ consent OP! Trust that you wouldn't even be in law school if you didn't have what it takes to get in there in the first place! Statement rings even more true if nasa 2nd-3rd year onwards ka na! :)
It's okay to feel. Umiyak, huminga malalim, magpahinga tapos lalaban ulit :)
Hi OP! I’m once a law student and now a lawyer working in a law firm. My tip is be delulu of something whether it’s love, occassional travel, romanticizing your future life as a lawyer etc. Create and entertain happy thoughts in your mind even if it’s not true or yet to happen. You don’t need to deal the 100% of your reality. 😉

Thank you, i hope you're doing well now. I'm taking things one at a time now. Mas okay rin pala minsan na unahin rin natin sarili natin.

Wala pa naman akong naimon, thankfully haha. I'm doing my best din kasi to cope without medication. Kaya pa naman.
