I dislike Trig.

Trig has given me a deeply negative Pavlovian response every time I am around it.  I cannot focus on it, or try to focus on it, without fear and hatred welling up and resulting in intense stress.  Some call it math anxiety.  I'd like to be an efficient math processing machine, but like an engine with no oil, stress brings everything to a grinding halt.  It's somthing I'd like to identify and gain control of, but intense aversion comes naturally and I don't know how to turn it around and feel good about doing Trig. 

Perhaps not all who study math feel "good" about it, but at least they can remain neutral enough not to care in a deeply negative way.  Some can remain calm or neutral when dealing with math, and not build up any stress.  I tend to rationalize and overanalyze everything to the point that nothing gets done.  I need to find some stressless process of doing math.  How do you handle the emotional side of it?

Drink more water and consume 2 teaspoons of cod liver oil a day. Try to understand what you have to learn before revising and memorising it.

If this doesn't work it means you are a dumbass and your only hope is to shift trash for a living or grow dope.
