Come on mash, if you feel this way, I am really screwed. You are like an inspiration to all of us, i mean you really are are walking medical dictionary, and i think with the amount of knowledge you have, you are sure to ace the exam. Don't give up now, try to stay calm, don't overkill yourself, maybe relax and then start again. I think your scores on the the question bank is great too, seriously you have nothing to worry about. Keep doing what your doing, i know distractions are hard but don't let them come in your way of studying and just a couple more weeks and then you can take a long vacation. GOOD LUCK AND ALL THE BEST!!!!

I have read many of your posts..........you are no doubt genious and genious people often get depressed.
I read it somewhere that if you have a feeling of depression, anger, hopelessness etc, try to direct that feeling towards something that helps you achieve your goal. These are just feelings, and we have power to use them in a constructive way.
These kind of things comes in life off and on, dont concentrate on these thoughts, whenever you feel not able to concentrate, just get up from there and try do something else.
I am praying for you, like all others. You deserves success. You should be relaxed now just by knowing that many prayers are with you!
You will succeed!

Mash, YOU WILL DO AWSOME ON YOUR EXAM. God helps those who help themselves and You have been studying your butt off. You just need to take a moment for yourself. I know that we cannot know the depth of your problems but life is full of problems and the true test is how we deal with them. Look at how many people have written to you so fast and with so many kind words. You must be a good person and have a good head on your sholders, so use it and do what is right. Relax!

Mash,
Since I've been in this forum, you have always stood out to me as someone distinctive in terms of medicine and modesty. Trust me, I understand the depth of your personal problems because I personally have too many and like you (in fact, that's why I haven't been able to get to my books for about a week now), I often have the same intense urge of leaving everything and going back to my home home country. So, the good thing is, you are not alone  . However, please remember that these are always personal ups and downs in life that are bound to come, that's not under your control. But the exam is something under your control and will power; so after all this hard work, do not let yourself down. Just a few more days of concentration, and then you'll be done; and we all are sure you'll do great, our prayers are with you! So try to disscoiate your probs just for a couple of days more (isolation of affect: :wink: and concentrate; I've heard about this saying that "The worst feeling is when you repent tomorrow for what you could've done today"; so work on your potential today let tomorrow bring the fruits. Good luck and best wishes!

Hi Mash!
My test is 19.July and at least i think I reviewed everything and done Q bank first time and now working on FA and some Qs. But your score is much much higher that mine! If i had that score i wouldn't even worry about the test less I have to get 280/99! So relax. My test is few days apart from yours, and i am not going to read all my books second time like you, but maybe Path and Physio. You have that score and feeling nervuos ...that makes me nervous becuase my scores are nothing like yours. If you are nervous how I would be? ..... dead????? So relax man, take it easy couple of days and just fill rest of your gap up!!!
By the way what are you studying these days? Please share your final review plan!!!!!! Good luck!

:o keep on and keep up! you can do it!
i remember a kid my papa used to coach boxing for kicks- he was hit and bruised then gave up, what he didn't know until the moment he surrendered was he crippled his opponent and was bound to fall if he kept it up.
we're here for you mash, this is what the forum is for- support
YOU CAN DO IT!

Your posts have always reflected a strong background and knowledge of medicine; they have always been helpful. We all go through some tough times occasionally, and I'm aware of how difficult it is sometimes (I went through a time like this last year, and the results weren't pretty because I fell prey to it...). But it's not all that much longer, and I have faith that you can keep on track and keep working towards your goal!

HI MASH,
I am very sure you would ace the exam, it happens to me too,these feelings and negative thoughts,they do perturb you for a while but then they go away, best thing is to keep youself calm even in the exam, dont get tensed, and i get homesick too near the exam i think ita a common feeling, dont worry, i pray to god that your genuine efforts shall bear fruits.
all the best cheer up
WE R ALL THERE WITH YOU
TAKE CARE

DEAR MASH,
TRY THIS WHICH HELPED ME A LOT DURING MY DIFFICULT TIMES
THIS TECHNIQUE ASHES OFF ALLL YOUR NEGATIVE FEELINGS TO FILL IT UP WITH POSITIVE WIBES.
SAY TO YOUR SELF EVERY MORNING YOU GET UP AND EVERY MORNING AND WHEN UR GOING TO SLEEP THAT YOU R GOING TO ACE THE EXAM AND YOU WILL BE PODITIVE IN THE EXAMS AND THAT YOU WILL GET THOSE QUESTIONS IN WHICH YOU R MOST COMFORTABLE.
ALSO TRY TO MEDITATE ON THOUGHTS THAT YOU R ACING THE EXAM NOT ONLY MEDITATE BUT ALSO VISUALISE TOO.
TRY THIS
THIS WILL HELP.
GOD BLESS YOU
TAKE CARE

Take it easy Mash
Your problem is that you are Type A personality(perfectionist)
So if something does not go like it should
you get crazy.
I know exactly how you feel
Your mistake is that you think that you have to do it ALL ALONE!
You do not have to do it all alone
Do your best which is 50%
and the rest will be a help from God
Trust me in this thing!
God loves you

Mash I already told you:
1) "You have the intrinsicness of Galileo"
2) I think perses is right your "Type A"-relax take some deep
breaths,if you can go near a large body of water-let the motion of the
ripples or waves calm you.
3)As you know its a very stressful field and each person manifests the
stress in different ways one young lady I use to study with use to "crack her
toes" , my B.P. has increased, Im slowly losing my hair, no one is
immune to the stress or tortuosity of this field. All arein the same boat
4)You may want to consider having a complete physical if you havent
had one
5)As I see it, you have been like the Rock of Gibraltor for most on this
forum. [Id say get help if your considering anything foolish, legally
I have to say this]
6) You will do fine- Seriousy
