I had an appointment with my guidance counselor because I had wanted to change my schedule for the next semester. My entire class period leading up to the time of the appointment, I was very nervous. Although my friend who has the same guidance counselor said he was very nice and friendly, I was still uneasy. I had a weird feeling in my stomach. During my appointment, I stuttered a lot and avoided eye contact. I even said the wrong thing at one point, confusing my friend’s next semester schedule with her current semester. By the time I left his office, I felt like throwing up, and I didn’t know why. I kept trying to calm myself because my breathing had gone all weird. I don’t know why this happened to me. My guidance counselor was very nice, just as my friend said. Everything had gone smoothly, and I was able to change my schedule. Why did I feel like throwing up?
