Try to determine what it is and focus on that problem. School is important in life, so I suggest talking about it with your parents and try to figure out whats going on and discover a solution as soon as possible. If you aren't so comfortable doing that yet try going to the teacher you feel closest to or a guidence counselor, no matter how far behind you are or how bad you are doing they will always be happy to help and get you back on track. Waiting too long could turn into a disaster. If they see you putting in the effort maybe they will give a break. Once everything is figured out and your back in the swing of things you will feel less stressed and much happier. [ Mikaela86's advice column | Ask Mikaela86 A Question ]
Lola answered Friday July 14 2006, 5:57 am: hey,
I read your problem and i understand how you feel. Because there came a time, when i was falling behind too, and my life was so messed up, and everything was out of control. Thats why i am willing to help you and tell you what to do,but first of all, i would like to clarify a point for you.
Now life isn't all great and isn't all bad either, there are times when you could be laughing ,joking, gossiping with friends, hanging out with this and that and having the fun of your life,and then there are other times when you could be crying ,feeling depressed, melancholic, upset and you think that your whole life has just come to an end.
But either ways, we should always try to straighten things up and fix everything and to make it better, and we should always try to be optimistic, and have some hope and faith that things will be better.
So now you think that you are falling behindm why? is it because of your grades , or friends, or the person your dating ,or...etc.
There are many reasons for a person to fall down on his knees and say" I've fallen behind and i can't get up!" but then what, in a day or two, your back on your foot and your moving on, and everything is back to normal and even better.Therefore all life needs is someone to believe in it and someone to work hard and make it better for himself and others. And all you have to do is to concentrate on your studying and if you can't figure something out ,you could always ask for help, because its not wrong to ask for help. Moreover, you should just treat your friends good and with respect, and you could have all the fun you want, and just be a good person and be optimistic and believe in life and in your self. And obviously, there is no advice i can give you in that, because you didn't clarify what is going wrong in your life.
But i just want to tell you something, that no one is perfect and no one has a perfect life, but we all do out best to make it better and nicer and just as good as possible.
So try to consider what i said, and if you need any further help, plese be free to contact me. [ Lola's advice column | Ask Lola A Question ]
