Exams in a week and I genuinely can't make myself study. What is wrong with me?
Student Support / by ColaKobi

...See more I have a bunch of exams starting next week, and I'll have 1 or 2 exams every day for two weeks, except on weekends. The most important subjects are in the first week too, but I just can't get myself to start studying. What's weird is that I don't even feel proper panic anymore. I know I should be scared, but it's like my brain has just checked out. Every day ends with me promising I'll start tomorrow, and tomorrow looks exactly the same. My exams are only a week away, and instead of feeling motivated by the pressure, I just feel numb. My brain keeps reminding me that I'm running out of time, but my body refuses to cooperate. I genuinely feel like such a failure. I have a university I want to get into, a goal I want to achieve, and a career I want to pursue. But the thought of having to study to achieve those things just makes me even more stressed. I can't help thinking about it, either. I hate studying. Of course, I know I don't have to enjoy it. I just can't seem to get myself to start. I've tried everything. What if I'm genuinely just lazy? Or what if I'm simply incapable of achieving anything? I honestly don't know anymore. I really want someone to hear me out, but no matter who I talk to, I never feel satisfied with the conversation. I never feel any more motivated to study, not even a little. What is actually wrong with me? Why is being a student so hard? Or am I the one making it harder than it needs to be? I feel absolutely awful.

Being self aware is kind of exhaustion

...See more Being self aware is really exhausting. I see everything I'm doing wrong, and I know exactly why I'm stuck and the solution, but knowing doesn't fix it. Yeah, I hate this one especially. It's so frustrating to understand your own mind so well yet still feel completely helpless against it. It makes me feel stupid. Yet, I really need support about it.

Not feeling like doing anything

...See more Even studying, watching a video, or just talking to friends feels exhausting. I feel incredibly guilty about this, because even though I know how to fix it, just thinking about carving out time for each one of them depresses me. When I see how other people make studying a routine, act like 'normal' people, or live their youth happily and peacefully, I feel helpless in that moment. Why am I like this? I just can't understand.
