I'm M/16. I'm a Junior in HS. I used to be good at school. My gpa was 83 in freshman year. In sophomore year my gpa went down to a 69, by the end I got it up to 79. This year has been okay but, I just don't want to do homework. I pay attention & do class work but I don't feel the same. I'll get home, play video games & research random things on the net. At around 11pm I'll look at my homework and just put it back in my bag. Then I'll end up going to bed at around 1am, fall asleep by 3am, and wake up at 5:30am. I've tried to sleep earlier and I just can't. Its like I've lost motivation & will power. I have nothing tol look forward to. Then I'll try in school but they think I'm dumb. I'm not the same, I used to help people with work & stuff. I had my first chemistry test & got a 50, even though almost all answers were right. Thats a disgrace, I loved science, I used to get streaks of 100's in earth science. I just feel lazy more than ever. I'm always tired too. How am I going to get into college if I go on?

Things happen and as you get older things change. When I was in middle school I was in my room for hours after school doing my homework. My parents would have to pull me out of my room to take a break. I worked my butt off to get my stuff done in middle. When I got to high school things changed and so did my priorities. I didn't do as much homework and it wasn't because I didn't care I just didn't have the motivation and I found things that were more important to me. It doesn't make you a bad person even though I know you feel bad about it. I have to ADD so when I need to do work I try to concentrate on what I need to get done and then take 15 minute breaks in-between. When you get home to sit in a place where there are no distracts and focus on the task at hand. When you feel yourself getting tired or bored take a 15-minute break and then after that go back to the work. As far as sleeping goes try not to do so much on the computer when its near bedtime. I find the computer keeps me up later than I should and if I don't get the right amount of sleep in the morning I don't function as well as I should. Are you a junior this year? It's time to change this habit around and if you want it bad enough you'll get it done. Have confidence in yourself! ]
