Vet student on first clinical placement

Hi there everyone, just looking for some advice on management of anxiety during my first placement in a mixed practice vet clinic.

I find myself balking when given opportunities to learn hands on (ie sedating a horse, scrubbing in for surgery). I feel like I'm not quick enough nor wise enough to do anything that I'm being offered to do experience wise and I feel terrible turning down the amazing vets that are trying to give me learning opportunities.

Basically what I'm asking is; has anyone experienced this before and do they have any advice?

I really want to get the most out of this placement but I just keep freezing up when the opportunity is given to me.

I hope everyone is having a lovely week and thanks in advance to anyone who offers their advice or experiences!
