I'm a perfectionist I guess you could say. But I don't have like OCD and things don't have to be in the right spot..etc. However, on like tests and stuff, I study so hard and when I get the test back to find I got a 93%, I freak, beating myself up and things. The biggest problem is in school. If I don't get a 98-100% I tend to give myself a HARD time. How do I get over this? This happens in sports too. If I do one thing wrong (bad pass, miss a layup, etc.) that's all I think about the whole game, which causes me to mess up more.
Pleeeaassse... any help is welcome! Thanks! (link)
It's not just because you are perfectionist. It is probably also because you have a lower self esteem. The thing to do is calm down. You have to tell your self that you will do better next time or just lower your expectations a little more just so that when you get higher than that you will be happy. it is a very difficult thing to get over, I have the same issues but not with school. you just need to try and change the way you think but in a good way.
