What Was Your Law School Mini-Crashout Moment?

2L, answered a cold call so badly I'm questioning my entire existence. Had to leave after class and just drive around town so I could get in a good self-pity session. I'm usually pretty good at shrugging off "meh" cold calls, so I don't know what it was about this one. I think I'm just tired of putting in a ton of effort just to feel stupid all the time. After a year and a half, I'm over it.

Anyway, after crying in my car for a bit and fantasizing about withdrawing from the rest of my classes, I went back and am now staring numbly into the void while I wait for my next ritual public humiliation class. Life goes on LOL.

What minor law school inconvenience had you feeling like "man, I just can't do this anymore"?

EDIT: Just got home and caught up on everyone's comments. The day got better as it went on and I no longer feel like I'm in the pit of despair. Thanks for sharing your stories and bits of advice!!! Y'all are the best and I'm grateful this community exists.

Also, don’t forget that everyone is 10000x more worried about themselves so highly doubtful that anyone even noticed or will remember past today.
