Feels like everything is going wrong

Sorry for the anon but i feel like i'm being stupid getting upset over this... basically feel really depressed and nothing seems to be going right recently - bf dumped me last week and i still like him so much, been feeling that i'm failing everything at school and alevels are too much for me and i want to do english at uni and got my (january alevel exam)synoptic paper results today and got a D when i had worked sooo hard and have never got lower than a B before for any essay so now i feel like i'm going to fail the summer exams and the retake and not get into uni and even if i do i'll be way too scared about leaving my friends behind and starting somewhere new and it feels like everyone is in a relationship apart from me and urgh....i just feel really crappy and like everything is getting worse and i can't stop randomly crying....:frown:

Sounds like you need to break down your life into specific areas and make plans for those areas. You have a lot going on that is getting you down. Tackle one area at a time and write a short and long term plan for that area. You must act on each area though.

I am an NLP practitioner and can help you if you like. PM if you are interested, don't worry I am not after payment.

I went through this stage and tbh a lot of people do. I'm doing Psychology at Uni and in one of my module exams in January I got an E. I re-took it in June and bumped it up to an A.

You can do it if you work for it. I wasn't willing to throw my future away and spent every minute of my free time speaking to my teachers and going to extra classes to prove to myself and them I could do it. I know exactly what you're feeling hon and my friends all went through the same. The feeling's awful but you've just got to keep plodding along at it.

About the relationship thing, I was the last person of my friends to have my first kiss and have sex. I was 16 and 18. And it didn’t bother so at all so it wasn’t really an issue for me not having a boyfriend and not being in a relationship. I didn’t feel uncomfortable seeing my friends with them. You’ll get over this boy honey, I’m sure J

Everyone’s worried about leaving their friends behind but you’re going to have to do it sooner or later. And at Uni you’ll more than likely meet some of the best people in the world.

Keep your chin up dude! It will get better.
