I don't know how to feel
Hi❤️so urm actually I have something that I've been holding on.. So this month is my exam month, I have 5 more papers to go. The feeling that been in my heart is
I used to be a smart student, I used to do well in class and got a great grade in school,
In primary school I did my best and got into nice high school. Did great in first year(2017)and I lost my confidence on second year (2018)because I'm in a class where all my classmates are top student. In 3rd year (2019)still in the same class, also that year I have a big exam, and i can say I got the second lowest grade there.. So in the fourth year(2020) I change class, I was so happy about it. My classmates is all my kind of level. It's feel comfortable❤️and I try to gain my confidence again and I did great for first few months.. Then lockdown happened, my mental illness got bad till I need to meet a therapist and i also got diagnosed an adhession colic in my stomach where I need to do a surgery. 2020 and 2021 I barely got into class, then now the bug exam has come.. I'M just sad.. If I do well in my studies back then, right now I might be in a comfortable place to focus on my exam. Right now I just feel like useless, I want to study well for this exam but I don't have much time to cover up from 2020. Also this is my last exam and my last year in high school. Like it's useless.. If I do well back then, and nothing happened to me, it would be nice.. Idk at some point I just want someone to comforts me, but I don't know too what I want to hear.. Since it's all too late now
I feel like i want to give up already I don't find the point to continue do my best in this exam, cz I already messed up my high school...
Well, what has happened in your previous years in high school is all in the past now. You can't really do much about it. You cannot be using the phrase, "If I had done..., then now I would be..." You can't really go back in time, nor redo everything again. So, you just need to keep moving forward. Only focus on the current final year of high school. Like a new person, start from the beginning. Study and catch up little by little. With 5 papers left and exams, give yourself an outline, listing when each is due, and set up a schedule to work on each task. It may be difficult to catch up on your grades in this final year, but don't give up. Just give it your full/best effort, a lot of time, and whatever that outcome is, don't blame yourself. You've tried your best, and allow the results to speak for itself.
You can also focus on your hopes after you graduate from high school. If you have something planned afterwards (perhaps a certain field of study in college/university, or a specific type of work you'll want to be doing), you can make it as a goal. That to get closer to the goal, you'll need to have good grades in your final year.
Also, it's not the end of the world if you get bad grades in high school. Don't worry. My average back then was somewhere in the 60s. I still got accepted into a University (their acceptance average was the lowest amongst other more well-known Universities, it was in another city though). I also never ended up finishing University either. I actually dropped out in my second year and started working instead. I worked for a good 5 years, taking some courses here and there at a local college, still did not finish a complete Degree. Then, I gave up on school and just kept working, up until a few years ago, I went back to school, did a very intense 4-month Certificate, and had been working in that specific field since. Also, I've decided to go back to College when COVID started, and is still currently working towards finishing a Diploma through online courses. I had never done well in high school, so I was afraid that taking College courses, my grades would stay low. After putting effort and time, I've actually been doing quite well, I had completed 7 courses so far, and my grades had been B- to A range.
If I can do this, so can you! Believe in yourself, have confidence, and try your best. Look at the now, the present and the future. The past is history and you can't re-live it, so leave it in the past and move on!~

Thank you so much! Thank you❤️❤️❤️these past few days sure put me in some darkness.
I think I know the reason why I don't really get motivate to study hard. After graduate in high sch, I need to take care of my parents (they already old and kinda sick, and I'm the youngest child, my siblings is all married and work far from home)
I do get into low college near my home
That's why i think I don't really dream big, so in my mind I just want get it finish quickly this exam, and start a new life after this
But I will surely try to smash this exam well❤️
(depression do get the best of me, thinking I am such a failure to my parents, can't even payback what all my parents do to me)
THANK you for your words
And your story do amaze me❤️you are so awesome and strong person
I wish i can have the energy and your strong spirit too❤️
THANK you again! I will try my best!
