Im a fail
I am a fail at everything I do. My whole family skipped a grade in math. I just took the test for it, I failed it. My twin brother almost aced it. WHY CAN'T I BE MORE LIKE MY TWIN BROTHER!!! My family is nice and supportive but I just don't understand. I don't WANT TO BE THE LOSER OF THe FAMILY!!!! I'm a girl, a preteen.

We aren't all alike. We all have our own strengths and weakness, our talents and what we excell at naturally. I wasn't good at math at all, even in slow learners class in high school for all those who struggled with algebra.
The only people who need to be aces at math are bankers, accountants, scientists, astronomists to name a few. If future careers like that don't interest you, then you have nothing to worry about.
No one is a loser for being weaker at one of the main things taught at school. My strength is Language arts or reading and English. I was fascinated at learning to write when in first grade and they couldn't teach it to me fast enough for me to be happy practicing writing sentences. After a life time of doing jobs that weren't related to my talent, I am now focused on writing my first book to publish.
You are blessed to have a nice supportive family. Start asking the family what they feel your strengths are and focus on those instead. Apply yourself on subjects you struggle with but dont let it get you down and depressed because there is nothing you can do to change it and be better at it. Your best will be good enough. I know enough math to get by in life such as being able to give correct change when something is bought by cash, doubling or cutting in half a recipe, or knowing what a clearance item marked 30% off original price is. I dont get an instant answer in my head but I can slowly figure it out so I know if I have enough money to buy it before getting to the cash register. Thats the best I can ever hope to be at math and what I know is good enough for me.

It's ok to not be good at everything, but you can't look at yourself as a failure or else you'll really turn into one.
I'm terrible at math. My brother gets A's throughout it and doesn't have any problem with it. I'm not going to look at myself as a failure just because I'm not as good as him. It just means I need to put more effort into learning.
I still haven't found the things I'm good at. Lots of my family have plenty of things they are good at.
You need to be more positive and start trying new things. Eventually you'll find something you're good at and something that you love.

It's okay dont feel bad about it. Sometimes people are just good and better at different things from each other. It doesnt make you a fail, it just means you havent discovered your gift and what comes natural and easy to you yet or you havent tried hard enough in anything to become better at it. So just keep studying a lot and trying hard and trying different things until you find your thing. And dont be discouraged it you suck at something at first, everyone sucks at first. But thats okay keep trying and practicing things and yeah hope that helped a bit, good luck!
