I spoke to my ex today and feel disgusted with myself - help!?

A piece of paper and letter grade is not worth cutting yourself! I felt tempted this month cuz I was suppose to fail a class in college. I was depressed and mad at myself.

But my hubby told me simply put that you either know the material or you don't. I would study, go to tutoring, and even spend 7 hrs a week outside of class on school work and when it came to tests I would just freakin BLANK. I asked myself...what am I doing wrong?

Nothing! Besides fretting too much about it. I have prayed about it.

Prayed for my teachers. Prayed to learn to forgive myself for failing. Prayed that I'd have finances to be able to pay for a $300 class again (not including books).

I continued to study most days but before the test I just relax. Think I either know the material or I dont. And By the grace and my faith in God I have come out with a B.

I know surely the teacher curved grades bcuz I was suppose to FAIL. Listen girlie... if you are managing your time wisely, studying, and giving it your all then thats all you can do. If you see a failing grade then just think 'well that sucks but hey i'll keep trying'.

Please don't hurt yourself. I know it's hard to see right now, but there is more to life than examinations and getting into the course you want. I worked hard and got into the uni course I wanted, but it gets even harder and you will be constantly surrounded by people who find things so much easier than you.

And tbh I often think life would be so much easier without all this stress and pressure. All you can ask of yourself is to try your best (and your grades still certainly look very good), and it certainly isn't worth hurting yourself over. Aside from the grades, is there anything else going on that might be making you feel this way?

Often family or relationship issues might make you feel more pressure in other areas of life, if that's the case with yourself? But if you're having thoughts of harming yourself, it certainly is worth seeing your family doctor about or talking to someone you trust first. Depending on how severe your mood problems are, they may give you some antidepressants if it is very bad, but will certainly recommend some help with working some things out.

Take care :).

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
