Hooray for studying - whoda thunk that it would seem like such a fun thing to do? It's tough to keep all that inside, so I'm glad you felt you could confide in us here. Believe me, I've been there and so have a lot of other women. Take care of yourself, and consider any changes you could make so you don't have to suffer through this panic again!
