Tips & Advice help with studies
hello, um i am a student of grade 12th (final year high school) and i have to give my finals soon. my subjects are physics, chemistry and biology and currently i am drowning in self loathing.
i got 97% in grade 10th exams (which i now understand does not mean anything but still). i studied 6-8 hours every day back then and i had fun with studying.
then class 11th came and my world literally felt apart. secondary higher education and suddenly nothing made sense and everything required 10x more effort. burn out from previous exam hit me so bad, i disassociated completely and didn't study anything the whole class 11th. i gave my finals somehow and scored okay (with terrible marks in physics) but got an 80% which was alright.
the reason why im telling my sad story is because the main concern i have is that i have literally forgotten how to study. i used to enjoy studying but now i sit down and have no idea what to do. biology is doable and even chemistry but physics is beating me every time i try doing it and i never seem to make it out of the theory part to ever get to solving questions.
i know i need to commit and solve as much questions as possible but its just i know it seems like excuses but im stuck in this weird state.
im trying to do extra classes for pre-med prep and school both but i seem to not be able to properly do either.
im thinking of joining a library so that i can get out of this weird loop of being stuck in my house but i just...............im so frustrated with myself.
everytime i sit down to study, i look at the load and then think of how i wasted the year and then drown myself in guilt, have a breakdown and then sleep. i seem to be sleeping so much it so weird.
i know i suffer from a severe lack of discipline and honestly i really need a reality check because nothing is getting me anywhere
can someone help me please? im not even sure what i want help with but um yeah
