Why is it that I want to be less academically clever like my siblings but clever at
The same time? For example, my siblings failed GCSE maths and I wanted to go from higher to foundation and go down sets in maths because I was frustrated I wasn't able with foundation and was able with higher. My siblings got Es and D. Luckily my teacher didn't let me leave and fail.
In science, I chose to go down sets because of bullying and I found that I would have passed if I stayed in my original class with at least a C but I went down and got a D on foundation and Es in some exam units and my siblings got Es overall. When I went down and I saw the structure was different, I did one GCSE and came out with Es I deeply regret it and wished I stayed in my original class to get the grades I am capable of which would be at least a CC or CD.
Is this due to my emotional dysregulation?

it sounds like you struggle a lot with confidence, you really undermine yourself. Try not to compare yourself to your siblings and remember it is YOUR future
