I'm a college sophomore who decided to start this major a semester ago. I actually enjoyed programming during that semester, but this semester something changed. Now I dread my programming assignments to the point that I nearly can't do them. I try to work through these feelings, but I'm having trouble. I think these feelings are also starting to affect my approach to doing homework assignments for my other classes. I'm planning on talking to a school psychologist this week. I just want to know if I'll ever be able to enjoy programming again, or if I should just switch majors.

the only thing i can say, is starting at a computer is one of the worse things for my anxiety, and talking to a few other people, they have all said to me, try and restrict your computer use.

that said, its getting easier as my anxiety drops off now.
