Tough Start to Spring
So its that time of your high-schoolers take exams, but the pain ends when you get your results back. THere's a never-ending pain knows as mosquitoes.
For some reason, if they're in my house, they're probably in my room. And I'm really sick of it, I remember waking up to a lot of mosquito bites on my upper body when I was younger and I've been traumatised since.
Their presence enhances the stress of exams as it makes me concerned of my safety. As you know, some mosquitoes can be deadly. Sometimes its just a fly or moth in my room, but other times I just assume its a mosquito. Regardless, i know that it will find a way to somehow make me worried for my physical health.

Hey yeah_it_tahtperson
I hear you - mosquito bites can be really awful! Sounds like youve had some pretty horrible experiences with them in the past, so no wonder youre sick of them.
And having to manage exams at the same time as worry about mosquitos must be really rough. When you say it makes you concerned for your safety, I didnt realise some mosquitoes can be deadly like youve mentioned. Im wondering what you can do to help protect yourself from them? Have you ever spoken with a medical professional about this or family members like parents?
I get the sense that theres quite a bit of anxiety around this for you which certainly wouldnt help you focus on exams. Maybe it would also be worth checking on this article on helping to manage anxiety.
Hi @Walter-RO ,
No not really, haven't really wanted to. Something i forgot to mention is that sense I don't have a job I don't really have disposable income to buy whatever it takes to protect myself from them.
Fortunately, I only have 2 exams left, I just hope I did consistently well this time around.
I see, I can understand how not having disposable income is making this difficult for you. I am not sure who you are living with at the moment.. but is it possible that they can help you take care of this issue? I am sure there are some low cost methods out there. Either way, I really hate mosquitoes too and they have thing for biting me it seems... so I seriously cringed reading your post as that would be so annoying! I hope you're able to figure something out.
I hope you did well on your exams 
Hello @Taylor-RO
didn't mean to make u cringe, anyways I'm still living with my family. If we continue to have issue we should be able to sort it out.
Exams went alright, aside maths but that's OK gave it my all, nearly there. I appreciate your concern.
Oh no worries at all, I just really hate mosquitoes so I really felt for you reading that 😅 I would hate to have to worry about them so much!
I am glad that your family will help you sort it out though, phew!
Yes, sometimes getting them done is the best part of it, regardless of how you perform. I know marks can be important but sometimes it is nice to just relax after having worked so hard! I know I get to that point myself as I am studying too.
