I don’t know how to sit down and just do my schoolwork. I always get distracted or lose motivation. Even though graduation is on the line I still can’t motivate myself to do my work.

I feel like my letter grades and percentages are getting in the way of actually valuing what I am learning and how far I have come.

I'm a procrastinator.. that's such an understatement. I ended up not even studying for my midterms until the morning of.. and of course there was no way I could have studied anything useful.. and it's like I don't even care anymore. But I do care. I feel like everything's falling apart. Since highschool I've been struggling. Now I'm in my third year of college but I can't study I don't know how to study I tried everything.

So I’m working on some old assignments that are past due. My teacher is wonderful and is letting me finish it without taking any points off, that is if I am able to get it done this week. Everyday I’m come home and I tell myself I need to do it, but I never do. I know this is all my fault, but I feel like I can never really focus on anything. This causes me a great deal of stress and anxiety..

I’m a bad procrastinator. Right now, I’m doing a lot of homework because I chose to procrastinate even though I knew that I would regret it and here I am, regretting it.

I finally got out of the mindset of planning my life around my assignments. Now I plan my assignments around my life, and I feel like I can actually have a life outside of school.

The more I study, I feel more lost than ever. I see other people succeed in life and think, “Is what I’m doing right now really leading me to where I wanna be?” I’m paralyzed by the amount of studying I have to do when I should just get to it. #finalsweek

My entire life school stress has caused me so much pain and distress that it has led me to be incredibly mentally messed up. I don’t know who I am, or what my personality is anymore. I feel like I go in and out of different personalities and that I’m going crazy! I want to drop out of college, but I want a degree. I can’t function and do normal daily activities. It feels like I can’t even pursue my dreams due to my mental illness, and once again I’m just so done.

I just got into University of Pennsylvania. Dream school — but I’m literally so anxious about it I can’t even function and thinking about all the stress I’m going to incur is already breaking me down mentally. All everyone says is “why do you even have to worry? You’re SET” but my anxiety gets the best of me.
