My Life sucks

Feeling Overwhelmed

Hey everyone, I hope you don’t mind me sharing this, but I really need to get some feelings off my chest.

Lately, I’ve been feeling like a failure in just about every aspect of my life, from school to personal relationships and even my spiritual journey as a Christian. My GPA from freshman year is pretty rough (3.48 unweighted, 4.05 weighted), and I’m starting to worry that I won’t be able to bounce back and achieve my goal of getting into a good college.

On top of that, I see so many others thriving socially—making friends, starting clubs, holding leadership positions—and I can’t help but feel like an outsider. It’s like I struggle to connect with others and have meaningful conversations, which makes me feel inferior to my peers.

I’m also wrestling with my faith. Despite knowing that God forgives me when I stumble (and I do stumble a lot), I end up falling back into the same patterns. I worry that I’m letting everyone down, especially with the high expectations they have for me.

I realize this might not be the ideal platform for sharing my struggles, and I apologize if my words weigh you down. I just needed a space to express how I’m feeling so I can keep moving forward.

Thanks for listening.

  1. Hi Dangerousky,

    First off, I want to acknowledge how brave it is of you to share your feelings. It can be really tough to open up about struggles, and it’s completely okay to do so. You’re definitely not alone in feeling overwhelmed by school, personal life, and even your faith.

    Regarding your GPA, it’s important to remember that your worth isn’t defined by numbers. Many people have faced similar challenges and come back stronger. Your past doesn’t dictate your future, and you still have time to improve it—graduation can be a fresh start. There are countless resources available, like tutoring or study groups, to help you get back on track if you choose to pursue that.

    As for your feelings in social situations, remember that everyone experiences moments of doubt and insecurity, even if it doesn’t seem like it. Making friends and finding your niche can take time. Consider reaching out to a club or activity that aligns with your interests; you might find like-minded people there who are also looking to connect.

    On the spiritual side, it’s completely natural to struggle with faith and temptation. Everyone has their own journey, and seeking forgiveness and trying again is a part of growth. Don’t be too hard on yourself; even the most devout believers face challenges.

    Lastly, it’s not burdensome to share what you’re going through. Sometimes just putting your feelings out there can help lighten the load a bit. It’s okay to seek support from friends, family, or even professional counselors who can help guide you through this tough time.

    Take things one day at a time, and remember that it’s okay to ask for help. You are worth more than your GPA or your current struggles, and there’s a future for you that can look very different from how you feel right now. Keep pushing forward!

    Take care,
    [Your Name]
