It's hard to explain, but sometimes I do get this "slow" moments every now and then, it's a bit embarrassing for me,really. Especially in front of friends, in school, or by myself in public.
I'm not sure whether it's just my social anxiety, because apparently I have one but doctor says it's "mild". Or maybe cuz I just started uni, which appears to be quite fast paced, in curriculum than my previous school, Or maybe I'm just overthinking.
Can't give examples from my personal life, , but I just know that on top of being slow, I tend to get easily stressed over school, overthink what people say, and I feel very numb sometimes.
Can anybody share some insights or say something about this?
have a good one

1) Slow, rhythmic breathing (count to five, breathe in, count to five, breathe out)
2) Dhikr, and lots of it, for me repeating, 'la hawla wa la quwwata illah billaah' helps
3) Distract your mind, and start focusing on something completely different, and for me, I think of Umar Ibn Al-Khattab :RA: and how fearless he was.

There was an instance where Hitler had put Jewish people in a room and he told them they will be gased by mustard gas. They all died. Hitler never gased them. It was their psychosis that killed them.

Also the professor gave a personal anecdote of when she was in University, and one of her classmates was an A student, super stressed all the time. They had a final and it was huge. The student literally woke up the day of the test blind. She couldn't see. She went to the hospital and her sight came back shortly and she rescheduled her exam. Apparently it was out of her stress. I don't see a reason why the professor would lie about her anecdote.
