  • Trying to find a way to be happy again, help please?

    I haven't been really happy since I was 10 years old. I always keep having bad grades even though I'm studying and this really gets me confused and hopeless if we could say. I've been cut from basketball teams eight times because I kept having panic attacks and stressed when I'm judged. Video games are getting boring, I'm always alone listening to music, don't suggest me to hang out with friends. I don't know if I'm depressed officially. I keep getting angry at my parents and friends, I'm really impulsive, I zone out and start throwing my eraser around in class, I get bored easily and my thoughts never follow through when I write. I've always had bad grades since the first grade.

  • Do I have learning disabilities?

    I've been struggling with school since I was 5, I had a lot of trouble with legos, coloring and drawing. In elementary school, my dad used to buy extra books so I could pass my classes but stoppee when I was in high school. I also stopped talking to him about my homework because he kept calling me stupid, lazy or retarded and good-for-nothing. Whenever I read, the words get blurry and the text start shaking, that probably happens after 5-10minutes when I read a book. I also talk fast and I'm a compulsive liar, I don't lie on purpose, I just talk and I can't really identify the consequence of my actions. I have trouble with organization,graphs in maths, instructions during labs in science. I read about 30 pages in 1 hour and a half. I stutter sometimes.My grades haven't been too horrible, I have a 73 average and I fail my physics class.

  • Is this normal or do I have a certain condition?

    I'm 16 and I've always had bad grades since I'm 5, from age 7 to 12, my grades were from 63 to 87 in english. It got worse in middle school in high school( grades from 61 to 83). When I was in kindergarten and also in elementary, I always had trouble counting,reading,drawing and cutting shapes When Lego's were given to me I didn't know what to do with them. It felt like I had no imagination or something. My dad used to give me extra textbooks for my math class in 6th grade because I almost failed. When I try to pay attention in class, it's like the information just doesn't sink in. I listen to the words and I completly forget what my teacher said after five seconds, it's not that I don't understand, the words just get out of my head or something. I had two concussion when I was 5 and 6. I'm premature also, if this helps.

  • I just don't know what to do?

    My life has been pathetic so far I keep getting cut from the basketball team, I have bad grades, I keep getting angry at video games, I suck at them too. I suck at everything I do just like my father and big brothers like to tell me. I have no motivation in school and in life in general. I keep losing my attention and can't concentrate in class.I'm useless and ugly. I'm still single and a virgin at 16. I have no interest, no hobbies. I'm socially awkward and an outcast, I do have some friends, but I don't talk to em outside of school because I live in the suburbs.

  • I'm really getting bored in school help?

    I just don't find the purpose, I'm really getting bored over school. Don't tell me if I don't go I might become a McDonald's employer and I'm going to fail. I have plans on going into finance or buisness. I'm really good in math, it's the only subject I'm interested in with phys ed and history. I really hate litterature( french and english), I really hate physics. I just don't know why I'm still attending these classes and it's required. I'm in 11th grade btw. I'm just not motivated towards those subjects.

  • What can really make me stop procrastinating?

    I keep pushing off my homework even when I'm away from distractions, I just don't feel like doing it, I quite feel lethargic nowadays and just want to get that diploma, but I just can't find the motivation. And please tell me something else than keeping myself away from distractions. I just wander off, daydreaming and keep throwing my pencil all around and I'm not actually choosing to act that way.

  • Having a lot of trouble in school?

    I'm really having a hard time sleeping every day, and I just can't just fall asleep. In school, I have a lot of trouble concentrating and focusing while doing homework. I have a lot of a trouble in languages because when I write, my ideas don't follow up. i mix up numbers in math(23 and 32 for example) and even numbers too, I could think that 68 was 64. And this kind of mistake really disavantages me. I have a lot of trouble too while reading I have to read a page atleast 5 times before understanding what the main idea was, It takes me about an hour to read 20 pages. I keep shaking my feet while sleeping and in class and I'm also daydreaming a lot and staring at windows and imagining stuff. I have a hard time organizing my tasks and do everything last minute and just play video games. Homework is just too hard for me, I do it all the time, but just can't study. I can't study many subjects all at once it's just over what I can do. Example, .i'm going to have a math exam tuesday, physics exam thursday, english exam friday. .it's quite impossible for me to survive this. I'm always below the average of the class even when I get a 85.

    Here are my grades

    English 85

    Physics 73

    Maths 77

    Biology 53, memorizing stuff is literally hell

    Drama class 56, forgot to give away some work

    Phys Ed 84

    French 62

  • What should I tell my father right now?

    Chris Paul goes to Detroit via FA

    LeBron goes back to the Cavs in 2014

  • Who is going to be the 1st pick in the 2013 nba draft?

    I don't think it will be Noel, I'm not taking the chance of having an injury prone player like him. He doesn't have an NBA body yet. He's not good offensively, but can still block some shots. I think the Cavaliers can either make a trade or draft Ben McLemore to put on a quick starting lineup.

    What do you guys think?
