Affirmation and Reassurance
The last class I had with her she was very aggressive when I asked questions aloud. Almost if she was put out. Also told me that my bumper sticker that says "stop heroin" was ignorant.

Well she sounds like kind of a pain in the ass honestly, I had a teacher like that one time myself.

I have so much anxiety and emotional conflicts going into the last assignment. Just wish I had some good coping mechanisms to practice to get me through this. Oh yes! a PITA! That made me giggle a bit. Thank you for that

Maybe you could try and just put things in perspective. I mean this will all be behind you soon enough, and no matter how it goes it's not like you're going to wind up on skid row over it, I wouldn't think.

So in the short term I'd just try to get a good night's sleep, give it your best shot, and keep in mind that it's not really all that significant in the grand scheme of things.
