I feel like I'm at a crossroads(My official life problems thread)

For some short backstory, my college experience so far has been pretty shitty. I started off with 6 classes, dropped 2 because I was failing them and wanted to try and focus on my other classes, but now I'm at the point where I'm still failing 1/2 my classes. I'm failing Calc II and General Chem, and it's past the point of no return so I'm guaranteed to be failing them. I'm passing my Intro to CoOperative education class(basically teaching you how to write resumes/job search, yada yada), and Engineering Ethics.

With the semester coming to a close in December, I don't know what to do. I've been told by everyone that first 1 or 2 years suck and that everyone struggles horribly their first year, and I get it but I still can't help but feel miserable through it all. The fact that I can't seem to get myself to do homework outside of campus just makes me hate myself even more, and with how I've been failing at having a social life and that in general I can't get myself to do things at home, it's not helpful.

tl;dr I'm failing at college and life in general, I don't know what I should do for next semester; should I try to stick it out or take some time off to try and get myself together(which I wouldn't even really know how to do anyways.).

I would be able to solve your problem in the future, but right now I can only assume that I can help you.

Grind through it

If you want help, then I need much more information; well anyone wanting to help needs more information.

It's up to you how, where, and when you want to share this information with whom ever you think can help.

Grind through it

INTP wins in this case.

Step aside, puny INTJ.

wut? If I wanted to decipher answers, then I'd be reading the Bible right now.

What do you want to know?

Nothing really.

Though at the time I meant for information regarding why this is happening to you, and your life.

I would then try to find a cause for it, which you'd have to confront; and then I'd hook you up with the art of studying and being as smart as you can be.

Basically finding the problem, patching it up, and then adding onto the subject.

As I said, anytime.

Have you been studying?

A nice metaphor I just thought of.

You're the bowman; I'm the bow and arrow picker.

I agree man I actually miss highschool for the day's me and my pals would get together and play some cards and joke around, I've only dropped out of English, but I feel bad as well since I didn't do any HW for that class, Im trying to get my ass back on the rails dough and trying to stop being lazy

Yeah, Highschool sucked a lot, but at least I felt like I had some people around me to just spend some time with now and then. My English class was mostly online, so whenever we'd meet on Fridays I'd walk into the class filling guilty for not doing the work and wanting to be able to do it right then, but I'd lose motivation when I'd get home. :/

Have you been studying?

...sometimes. I've been going to tutors for the past month or so. Normally study for at least an hour for Chemistry before every quiz.

I didn't I even told the teacher i knew I was going to fail I don't know why but, I wanted to feel the emotion of failing a class even dough I did feel bad when everyone was turning in her work

Huh, I don't understand why you'd do that, but then again I can barely understand why I act like I do.

Why are you failing to begin with? Are you studying?

University of Detroit Mercy. Why do you ask?

I don't do most things I want to or feel like I should do, even though I have the time to and it might be in my best interests.

Depression, anxiety, was overwhelmed early on when semester started, and when I was able to calm down more and try to take command of the 2 classes I wanted to bring up, it was already too late. I essentially started off 1/2 way into the class with a failing grade, so catching up in Calc II has proven to be near impossible and I struggle to get myself to try to do it now, even though I want to stick through it to learn all I can now so retaking it will be easier if that's what I choose to do.

If it seems impossible to catch up, then yeah, retake the course, but what's stopping you from repeating history?

Seduce your professors.

Depression for no reason, or depression for a certain reason/s?

Stopping me from repeating history? I don't understand what you mean by that.

Grind through it

INTP wins in this case.

Step aside, puny INTJ.

Lmao, INTJ is objectively the best

No wonder you're failing.

I'm INTJ but I always get ragged on for being one.

Though that is debatable, you've proven my point.

Objectivity in a matter of subjectivity does not penetrate the complicated brain of a human, which is a subjective thing.

I was just wondering if your schools classes were just hard.

Depression for no reason, or depression for a certain reason/s?

Well, I was overwhelmed with the amount of material and work I had to do.
I don't know what to do with my life right now.
I had a poorly thought out plan for the summer that didn't go through b/c I realized it was poorly thought out.
I went to camp on a whim because I was tired of being miserable from doing much of nothing and thought it might help, then it did and I had a lot of fun, but since then it's been suck.
I didn't hang out much with my friends over the summer, and when I did it felt like a chore.
I can't hang out really with my friends now as they're across the state, my other friends I'm in contact with slightly more now are also spread out through the state.
I hate myself for being inactive, I have an idea of what I want to do, then I can't get myself to follow through with it.
And I think that's all I can remember right now.
