I perform best when feel invincible. But that invincibility comes from developing the skills to be invincible in the first place.
Sports Performance Anxiety
I really have this problem. When it comes to intellectual performance anxiety (coding interviews), I still feel stressed, but much less so.

Academic Anxiety
I finally got this after my CS341 exam, into 3A. I feel worried and stressed and doubt whether I can actually pass the course. This is a terrible feeling. Because I just didn’t know how to do the problem. I think I didn’t learn well enough. I didn’t practice enough. I just read previous exam questions.
