I can understand parental pressure. They want to see you to be a successful person. Sometime it is overwhelming. you should talk to them that you are doing your best.

I have tried, I am even doing extra classes but they still keep on putting pressure on me. On top of that all my friends have distant from me for no reason and they ganged up on me to bully me

It must be tough time for you. show your work report to your parents and try to tell them all the people are born with different potential.

Reflection of feelings
Hmm...That doesn't seem like a bad idea. I am just worry that my parents will not be very understanding. My parents are too strict and they don't like to hear any complaints or excuses.

Most of the parents behave like this when it is regarding their kids future. When I was in school same thing happened with mw. They know us very well I realized now. Try to talk to them everyday for a while. It might work.

Maybe you're right! Although, my parents have a very busy schedule but fingers crossed when I do find time to talk to them they will understand me. I sometimes feel like someone older needs to talk to them, maybe then my parents may take it more seriously Well! Thanks I give what you said a go

user

sure! You don't have to worry about that. that should be their problem. just ignore them or don't give attention. They will stop doing it for sure.

Hmm..interesting because now that I think about it, I believe this could have contributed to the stress and anxieties that I have been experiencing. When I don't get support from anyone I feel so alone, timid and down

Try to take small break while studying and try to relax
assistant

Yes, I find that has helped me a bit also because I have quite a short attention span . Also, I am currently on the path of trying to find more unique techniques to help revision more fun and exciting for me
