How can I get a legitimate sick note for being stressed from my doctor?

I'm at Uni and I have important exams coming up in thr next few weeks + I'm feeling really worried and stressed about them.
I have a part time job at a well known supermarket and I want to have some time off over the next few weeks but they won't let me because the time is already booked up on the department.
I really need this time off as when I'm not studying I'm working and I don't have much time to myself to relex.
I was hoping to get a sick note from my doctor to sign me off for the next couple of weeks, as if I don't show at work I'll lose my job :(
I wouldn't normally do this!
Can I just book an appointment with my GP and tell him/her I'm stressed and hope they'll give me a sick note???
Thanks

Unless you exhibit signs of extreme stress I doubt your Dr. would give you a note to get off work because of stress. You might be able to get a couple of days by complaining of a severe headache that nothing seems to take it away. You could eat lots of salt and get your BP up and tell the doc you have tons of stress trying to study and work both. Your BP should be up from lots of salt and just keep telling the doc your head hurts up the back of your neck to the top of your head, that is where stress headaches are (I know, I have been diagnosed with them) but you really have to look like you are in severe pain. Hope this works for you. Keep complaining of headache on the top of your head.
