Greetings to all
I find a great problem in my life
Am still a learner doing the last year of high school before I step on to the Adult world, but I have lost friends along the way, I don't have a brother nor Sister am alone, am independent but the problem is studying, I study alone, I once tried putting myself in a study group thay didn't work, students pushed me away for they want to study alone, accepted that and I tried studying by myself but I always spend lot's of time trying to read one thing and for once i don't get it I quickly forget what I read, I tried cramming worked but takes alot of time, tried reading with understanding doesn't work cause am really underpressure and very scared to fail
Please help
My parents once advised that I take some medication for concentration or memory
Out of 7 subjects I have to know and try to pass
Plus time is limited, I go at school at 8 in the morning and come back at 4 late I begin studying at 5 or 6 I get tired at 9 and feel drowsy sometimes I think that I shouldn't sleep at night the whole night and study, but just scared to risk and yet I still have another day at school
Please help me people
I trust you and I know you will help me

Just do your best. Put in everything you can but don't lose sleep over it. Be proud of what you achieve. And most importantly, be yourself and don't let other people put you down. Ever. Confidence is key to success, if you believe you can do it, you can.

Anything is possible.

Wow, Northy
Great words of wisdom
I actually highly appreciate this, seems like u cam actually see what am going through, few days ago, one of my class mates questioned me for a subject after I had failed a Maths test, he was actually laughing his head out laughing at me, he approached me and somehow someway started asking some subject questions, I tried answering but I found them very hard and I ended up not answering any and he was just rolling the information out like a played tape and I truly asked myself how does this person do it, but when I got home I began to understand that this person was actually discouraging me in a way or two that am dumb and am actually not, I think, but here there's a lot of competition and Jealousy, they actually want to see themselves only succeed but without others
I truly appreciate this words Northy
