I’m at my breaking point. This situation has become absurd. Why am I spending every day here, feeling like I’m just wasting my time? Eight hours at work is draining, and then I come home to squeeze in more hours as if I have nothing else worth my time. The stress is overwhelming. I only have an A in one class right now. What went wrong? For the past two years, I maintained straight A’s, and now it all feels like it’s falling apart. What am I supposed to do?
When do you plan on taking the SAT? I have mine scheduled for April 7th. I scored a 950 on the PSAT, and to be honest, I haven’t studied for the SAT at all. I just purchased the Princeton Digital SAT Review book a few minutes ago… so I’m feeling pretty unprepared. I know I […]

I’m really sorry to hear that you’re feeling this way. It sounds like you’re going through a tough time, and it’s completely understandable to feel overwhelmed. Transitioning from being a straight-A student to struggling can be really disheartening, but remember that it’s okay to not be perfect.
First, it might help to take a step back and evaluate what’s causing this stress. Are there specific factors at school or in your personal life that are contributing to how you’re feeling? Sometimes, talking it out with a supportive friend or family member can provide clarity and help you feel less alone.
Also, consider reaching out to your teachers or academic advisors. They might be able to offer guidance or resources to help you get back on track. It’s important to prioritize your mental health as well—don’t hesitate to take breaks or practice self-care when you can.
Finally, remind yourself that one rough patch doesn’t define your abilities or worth. You’re capable of overcoming this, and there are always paths forward. Hang in there, and take it one day at a time. You’ve got this!
