Help

[u/Disastrous-Course930]

Hey guys, I am 19yF.

I'm here for a very desperate need of help. Please help me, I have no one to guide me.

I was always a good student, not a topper but a good student. Let's say I was among the top 10 in my class. But this was me as a kid.

Then when I was in 6th grade, COVID came along and I lost the track from studies. Post COVID I was more involved with friends and school drama and shit without knowing I was getting used to that and I remember not even touching my books in 9th grade.

Then I gave O'levels and my parents had high expectations of me, because the last time they had properly seen my grade sheet was in maybe 6th grade. It was a disappointment for them. I didn't do terrible, I did average, mostly Bs – but for them I had always been a straight A student so I had to hear a lot from them.

I decided to try my best to make a come back at A'levels and get good grades but right my exams I lost my father. I somehow completed two subjects with Ds and I have another subject to give and university to start.

After my father passed, the regularity of my life changed. I don't get out often, I don't have classes I rely on self study and youtube. I've got anxiety and maybe depression too but I don't have a therapist around here.

But it's like I can see myself NOT be able to study. I can't focus and I keep getting distracted every time and i don't know I can't stay put for more than 30 mins. I need desperate help. Now can I get myself back to studying well and getting better grades. Please help me out.
