I feel like a failure
This year I feel like Ive fallen short of what I was. For the past 2 years ive had sleep issues, but no one will help me. I would have a not so great attitude at school form being tired and sleepy and got yelled at by friends for it. so now i just hide it and pretend to be happy. This year, for the first time, im not starting in soccer and im not playing as good as i usually do. I used to have top grades in class and now im coming in 2 or 3rd. Sometimes I feel like I hate myself for all of it

Research indicates that young adults often require 10+ hours of sleep. So, you're not failing as a young adult. You're going through rapid physical and emotional changes, and that can be exhausting. Feeling like it shouldn't be happening is also discouraging and affects confidence. Be kind and supportive of yourself. Rather than falling short, your world is expanding and becoming more complex, and it may take a bit of time to adjust. You have a history of successfully adjusting. You've faced daunting challenges before and come out alright. You're currently in the process of succeeding at today's challenges.
