Your Questions About Best Selling Self Help Books Uk

can someone motivate me to study again (long)?

Basically, i’m turning 16 next month and i have my mock gcse’s the month after, and the real exams a few months later.

The trouble is, is that i spent the best part of my summer revising so i can get great marks. But recently i have experienced a huge burnout in motivation. I have the potential to get A*s in most my subjects (according to
My teachers) I go to a decent school, i promised my long-term girlfriend that i will do well (she lives overseas and has high expectations for me), i’m called stupid at school by loads of people because i failed at my Languages (so i want to prove them wrong), i sold my xbox while my friends are spending hours playing the new xbox game (black ops) and recently getting better marks than me and i have even turned to god for help. Everything has shot downhill and i’m a complete mess.

So i convinced myself that i should try to relax for 2-3 weeks and hopefully my courage will arise again and i can get on with my life again. Yet, all that caused was for me to become my former self of a computer game addict/time waster of just spending hours reading useless books (wheres wally, KS1 books, etc), playing online computer games (like miniclip.com) and other useless things. I have even begun masturbating 3-4 times a day. Before this burnout of concentration, my mind was so fresh and alert and i never thought of masturbating (maybe once a month), but now i do it 3-4 times a day and i go to bed with an aching, tired body, and blurred mind and memory after the dizzy spells i get after i ****.

So i have turned to the final place i can get help. Maybe someone on Y!A can provide a spark that will start my fire again. I know that this is the ideal time to study, with it being the start of something that will decide the rest of my life, while everyone else is wasting their time playing black ops. But i just can’t. I’m in a complete mess. I’m gaining weight, losing my six pack and my eyesight’s getting blurry too. My close friends think i’m underachieving too.

But worst of all, i know if i do badly, i’ll let my girlfriend down. She is really acedemic and she wants to get into Cambride/Harvard (which she’ll probably do) and wants me to do well in my exams so it would be easier for us to be closer together. I really miss her, but i wreck like me doesnt deserve someone like her at the moment. She said that she wouldn’t mind if i do badly, but i know, inside, she does.

My parents aren’t too caring though, so i have never talked to them. They will never be understanding.

I have tried to go outside often, though the cold air just makes everything numb and i just end up getting wet and freezing as i walk home from school, which doesn’t do wonders. I think i’m starting to suffer from depression.

Whoever’s reading this, please help.
