I just failed a class and the semester is over so now I feel horrible and I feel as if my life is over and it doesn’t help that I’m already a grade behind I feel so stupid and I know when I tell my mom she’s gonna be angry
Why not look at this as a positive opportunity instead. Perhaps look at different aspects of your situation: for example are you prepared in advance for test , are you sleeping well the night before, do you need extra study ahead of time moving forward, perhaps a understanding tutor to help you along to have better understanding.
I’m sorry this has happened. You are way more than grades. I know it feels awful but I have all the faith that everything will work out 🫶
She is your mom after all…. She will understand after a while. Stay strong and give your best !!
You might have failed the test, but the learning is never ending. It’s the beauty of our intellect. You will continue to improve your skills at learning. Do you know we have to learn how to learn? I’m serious. Like 777Q said above, try to figure out how you can improve your chances of passing next time. Your mom will understand. Maybe right down a list of things you can do differently in order to grasp that subject. Then tell your mom and share with her what you will do differently. That is learning in itself. You are learning about what kept you from learning for this particular class. We never stop learning though. Failure is when you don’t try. Failure is when you give up. But success really comes in all shapes and forms. You are a success for merely trying. Get back up. ❤️
I’m having a bad episode right now and I’m feeling so depressed and I’m crying like a baby because I’m thinking that if my mom knew the reasons I’m like this she would hate me and what would I ever do without my mom. I’m feeling so alone. I just need my mom but I know I can’t open up to her. Like even if I’m this horrible person my mom would despise me too? I can’t handle that someone please help.
So I and my mom got into this big fight yesterday and I said some things I didn't mean to say to her and she said some things and I know what I said was bad but what she said cut deep in me because Even though what I said to her wasn't good her words hurt because going through wat om going through rn is honestly the worst thing a human can go through my worries and fears now all of a sudden now become feeling of Suicide and self-harm and honestly she's right because at this point I'm at a dead end and there's no going back I didn't tell her what was actually going on with me because I know she will never look at me the same and growing up with parents that are Gen x back in the day mental illness is a fucking joke to them apparently and is not taken seriously not all of them are like this but I know a few now I've been thinking about offing myself I don't think I'm gonna make it I'm really struggling.
I just got my midterm 2 grade back from thermodynamics I got a 12/63. The lowest grade in the class I’m trying my best to stay calm and not want to punish myself. Now I’m laying in bed and I have another midterm next week for statics where I am failing but I did well on the last 2 quizzes so I’m at a 52% also I’ve been going to office hours it’s been helping. I found out today my issue why I fail my exams and quizzes is because I have test anxiety to the point when I sit down I forget everything ( I studied 7 hours a day 5 days before the midterm). I was thinking to prepare for this next midterm to do the opposite not study more then 4 hrs a day ( I study 8 hrs plus a day including hmw) and try to time myself for each question to do the homework and lecture questions and if I don’t get it done in that time look at the answer and come back to it later on ( so I don’t memorize the answer). I have not the best memory so I won’t remember the answer after 10 minutes lol. I’m not trying to beat myself up for failing but I’m trying to find a different approach. Any advice? Also I barely studied 4 hours this morning but a part of me wants to get up and study not because I have to but to beat myself up about failing :(
