Perfectionist...! 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!

that could be a form of ocd, i had that it lasted for about a year now it switched to the negative and reasurrnce label of ocd. thers like five different kinds, the one where everything has to be in the right spot is te main kind that everyone thinks is the only kind bc its most common.
im not trying to freak you out its not that bad of a thing, but ask your mom or doctor, n if its how you say it is they definatly will do something. lol i remember them taking me out of school bc i was to obsessed with school and grades and bein such a perfectionist. i really cant think right now im sorry ill probly edit this later, hope i helped thoo ]
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. ]
I am the same way. Well not my grades but for soccer. Sports take dedication and so do getting good grades. If you put in your full effort and get a 93% just think to yourself you did the best that you could do. For the sports issues tell your team. That you need encouragement. They will become more positive and it will help the whole team out. ]
