No motivation to revise

Just curious if anyone else is having the same problem as me? I got excellent AS results and am predicted very high grades in all my subjects and I've always been a hard worker but after I hit Jan of this year I lost all my motivation and stopped working.

All my teachers have been concerned because I'm predicted A*s and I'm getting Ds in mocks because I don't know anything. I know I need to start revision and anxiety about my exams is making me ill but I can not bring myself to work. It's not laziness genuinely not but even when I do sit at my desk with no distractions no phone nothing else to do I can't concentrate for more than half an hour and no matter what method I use to revise anything I learn just goes into some bottomless pit in my brain and in an hour's time it's gone.

I am so stressed I am absolutely going to fail at this rate can somebody help give me suggestions/ is anyone else in the same boat?

Im very unmotivated too, Ive got my geog AS in 2 hours and am just chilling about to have a pizza which i think proves it. only started revising for it 2 days ago after getting a U on my mock. Ive just accepted that I'm screwed.
All is not lost. Download "How to increase motivation and tackle procrastination" - a free article - from www.keweipress.com that offers tips that you can try.

There are a few other freebies there that might help you, for example, "Exams - preparation and revising".

I hope some of this helps you to succeed.

A2 is in june, if you start now you can still do amazing!! you can do it.
You have the whole summer to do what you want and you don't want to be feeling ' i could have done better'
you should just try your best and everything will be okay. A positive attitude helps alot..
Don't you have uni offers to motivate you?
