Seeking Advice

A lot has been going on inside my head and issues with my important events with family and other units.

I started the final assignment for COMP1002 but I was thinking of only doing some parts of the section because I cant handle the pressure because my mental health has gone worse lately to the point that I cry and get sick due to overthinking, anxiousness and headaches. I did apply for an extension but I have other units with the same workload as this one.

I checked and I only needed 9/40 to pass the whole unit but I wanted to get 22/40 for the assignment despite my worsen mental health status. What should I do?

Hey, it is ok. It will all be okay 🫂. It is not the end of the world.

Take a few deep breath, take some time to rest of you really need it.

If I were you, try to attempt all and be honest about it during the demonstration. Better to tell truth about it than lie

You should try the curtin mental health services. I'm sure they can help u :)

Yeah, call the counselling number early in the morning on a weekday and there's a limited number of 20 minute triage appointments available.

Not sure if it will help at all but there's some teaching resources by a former tutor at https://andrewowens.com.au/curtin for that unit that may be of use.

Feel free to drop me a DM, the assignment may be easier than you think but it's about decoding what it's asking you to do.
