Being Asian
Being asian, I feel like I have to be the stereotypical smart asian. I am not doing good in school and math is my worst subject . I feel like people expects me to be smart just because I'm asian and I can't handle the pressure that no one is giving me but myself. No matter how hard I try in school, I still manage to fail and I feel so stupid all the time. My parents are smart and so is my brother. I am the only dumb one in the family. Going to school gives me tons of anxiety.
@redCircle8282 Nobody expects you to be, except yourself. I'd let your inner voice and opinions drown out the haters— you are the one living your life, not them.
Remember it's your life and you live with your choices. Ultimately you can listen to them (and torture yourself) or you can be at peace with where you are at and who you are.
I think stereotypes and comparisons are not healthy. Life is a spectrum of grey— you probably aren't the best student— probably not the worst either. I'd just try to find peace with where you are at!
Yeah man I know this feeling. Im japanese and right now I dont feel so good. I tried to tell my parents but they dont care. You gotta take care of yourself. I hope you get better👍🏻
