Just be yourself and don't dwell on what might happen if you fail. You said the test was in Italian; if that is not your native tongue are you proficient in it? If so there is nothing to worry about. As far as your self esteem goes, I read some of your questions and know you are Gay. The fear of being stigmatized because you might be found out could be the cause of your low esteem. Trying to continuously hide your identity and deceive others is a big negative to your self esteem. If such might be the case in your test the best thing to do is come out with it and get it over with. The other person may be much more understanding than you have imagined. Facing that obstacle at the start may help you with your self image and allow you to proceed more confidently.

I was the same way until I discovered community theater. I was scared as Hell the first time I tried out, but I went through with it, and when I was assigned a part, I could slip into character, and be someone else. Someone that belonged on the stage, who wasn't afraid, and I had so much fun!!! I did 3 different plays, but wish I could have done more. By the end of High School, I was a confident young woman who felt like she could accomplish ANYTHING.
