posted from the other boardSO Im 15 in a nice cool family with conservative parents, and live in a nice $500,000 house (which in NY gives us a small house for the money) but I keep hearing about college college and I have this laziness. Im in all honors classes but I just cant convince my self to do my hwk. I then get bad grades and my parnets yell at me..This gives me this Why am I even living feelings.. They dont yell as much as give the "I am disappointed in you" look, which burns..hard..The sad part is Im not expected to do any extra work besides my homework and vacuuming every weekend. This makes me feel worse.Anyone wanna help out or something? The reason its depression - I woud say is that "I FEELLIKE SHIT" feeling I get after getting a 72 on a test when I know I should be getting 95+s...Any ideas on motivation, ect,?I know this isnt as serious as some of your peoples issues (and I wish you good luck with any problems you have) but I need someone to help me out here..Also I do have friennds and ect. so Im not the outcast or anything.."The best thing in life is to be loved or to be in loved"

Get a job, a proper working environment will help you to focus on working and to get things done when they're needed. I used to be just like you, hell, I still am. But now that I'm working I'm getting better at doing hw (by which I mean I do some of it now)

ya i agree get a job, maybe even volenteer somewhere. But i would also start working out, go running or do some exersice. I know how easy it is to be lazy, but get active and your grades will come up and you'll feel like doing hw sometimes jsut to be able to sit down. Keep us updated and if you dont see a change come back and ask some more, you can get through this i promise.

Well idk its hard to make me do my hwk, Im 15 - 142 pounds - considered normal I do need to workout more (for the track team)..For example today I went to soem party of my parents, and everyone was looking at me and talking about what college im going to, and what my grades are...and basically I felt like I was failing my parents. I have to get through this and get All As this last quarter.Right now I have 2As, 2Bs, and a C. That's horrible imo but how do I make my self work harder?Sorry if my thoughts are scattered here, its kinda late and my mind is all twisted.. thanks

HEY Im from australia so i duno how your education system works over there but mabye next year choose subjects that intrest you? if that cant happen then stop trying for your parents because in the end your schooling doesnt affect them. it will affect you because it'll be you who's bummed out about ur final results. In year 12 (FINAL YEAR OF SECONDARY SCHOOL.. year b4 college in america :confused: ) i decided to do subs i wanted to do now subjects my parents wanted eg science maths. And i decided to find a university course (college) i like and focuss on that. so mabye even tho your still young try and focus on small personal goals and achiving them will make you feel better as well as assist you gettin good grades.. also the excersise thing is a great idea i highly reccomend that. It increases blood flow which helps concentration :smile: so good luck.. SMILE cause if your feeling down and u smile.. it tricks ur brain into being happy (try it :smile: ) found that out in a lecture and i've used it ever since
Cheer up darlin ull be fine.

the thing is what is your goal in life that you really want but people think its impossible for you to do it. set a goal that would make u motivated in school to let u be sucessful-we dont make history without motivation, we make it by embracing our greatest footsteps

hey dude PM me i have the same problems

Welcome to the board, Prism!Nice sig: "The best thing in life is to be loved or to be in loved"--does this have anything to do with your concern?Think about it: you're a human being before anything else. Lose touch with who you are and you forget what's really important--to be, not to do. Listen to your heart. Then you'll be able to function again.

LOL. Are you the new welcoming committee?

:smile:
It'd be cool if everyone is. Loving nurture can't hurt ya.
:smile: -
The answer is right at the end of your post--you need to find a girl to love and love you.
