Am I burned out?

You've literally chosen 3 of the hardest A-Levels you could possibly do and you are self-teaching it? No wonder you are burnt out, I would be too. Good luck is all I can say, I wish I had your determination. There is a light at the end of this seemingly endless tunnel. Make sure you don't neglect exercise and socialising with friends/family as it can take a toll on your mental health and will affect your grades for the worse.

Thank you, I've made sure I spend adequate time studying and relaxing and exercise as I want to look after myself and all I can say is that if I can't pull this off successfully then university probably isn't for me but I will keep pushing

Nah, you're not correct about that. Most (probably all) University courses aren't as difficult as self-studying three challenging A-Levels in a year, especially if you've gone from BTEC ICT to these A-Levels.

I just need someone to talk to, i'm really stressed out and overwhelmed even though I shouldn't be?

I am self studying A Level Maths, Further Maths and Physics but I have methods to do so and have good skills in both subjects. I am also not enjoying studying them or my normal hobbies and keep getting easily confused and just accepting things as they are. Such as if my mum asks me to do something I just do it straight away but not out of respect or anything. I feel like a zombie just existing and not enjoying and living life the way I used to.

For reference, I used to study BTEC Level 3 in IT but wanted to study engineering but my college wouldn't let me study it or change to it before I started Level 3.

Is anyone else self studying that I can talk to? I feel so unhappy and I have no one to talk to and feel dizzy and sick from the stress

Am I overwhelmed? Burned out?

Hi. I took those subjects as well, although I did them at college. I'm in a bit of a rush right now so will just write down some advice.

Because maths and further maths (and physics to some degree as well) are so connected, at some point it will all come together and the different subjects will begin helping each other out.

The subjects are pretty hard but if you generally enjoy doing maths it will be very doable.

Take a step back and think about what you are doing. I know how stressful studying can be (and I imagine self studying is worse), but in the greater scheme of things not understanding things here and there isn't the end of the world. When you don't get something, don't panic or stress, just laugh, try reading it again, look for other sources to explain it, try some questions or just say you'll have a look at it again later.

Get a lot of fresh air. Walk, jog, cycle. You don't wanna be inside all day.
