sad so sad

hi guys

as the title says i'm extremely sad as i didn't score well on my high school senior year (b) which is not good at all all of what i've done went in vain the many hours of studying and the many months spent doing things i didn't like all of this and it comes to a guy who just wanted to put the most difficult exams in the history of high school in here to make our lives worse than they already were

sorry for venting but this just is too much for me to handle i'm not thinking straight right now i'm having suicidal thoughts and my diabetes is off the roof

thnx for listening

ultra stone

There's no point in getting worked up about something you won't even care to remember in a few years time. Just chill and move on. Be grateful you're done with high school and you've tried your best.

i think you don't know my friend but in here high school IS the rest of your life you have to score very well to get to collage basically your whole life depends on that you have to go to collage to get any type of work

that's why i'm so worked up

first...don't come to a paper modeling forum for answers.

talk to your school counselor and/or your teachers.
talk to local education counselors if available.
talk to your doctor and/or a therapist.

deal with your depression and anxiety first...this is not a life ending situation.
you should commend yourself for having the awareness and intelligence to
recognize the importance of your situation.
Most kids shrug and don't care until they realize too late to do anything about it.

But you still have decades ahead of you to fix this.
(since we are talking about high school, I assume you are only in your teens)

and, don't forget, some of the worlds most important and influential people didn't even finish high school!!
From a list of "high school dropouts" there are:
Billionaires: 25
Millionaires: uncounted
U.S. Presidents: 8
Astronauts: 1 (Valentina Tereshkova)
Nobel Prize Winners: 10 (6 Literature, 2 Peace, 1 Physics, 1 Chemistry)
Olympic Medal Winners: 8 (7 Gold Medalists, one Silver Medalist)
Oscar Winners: 63
Oscar Nominees: 105 (includes above)
Other Award Winners: uncounted
Best-Selling Authors: 56
Presidential Medal of Freedom recipients (U.S.'s highest civilian honor): 14
Congressional Gold Medal recipients (U.S.): 12
United Nations Goodwill Ambassadors: 2 (Roger Moore, Angelina Jolie)
Knighthoods: 28
Damehoods: 3


Check out the names of some of these people who failed at formal education, here;
Celebrity Research Lists - Famous Dropouts, Celebrity Dropouts

I think we put a lot of pressure on kids to get a degree and rightly so.
Education is important.
But there are a lot of smart people who never get degrees
and a lot of dummies who do.

I feel your pain. You are a person of talent. There will be a place in this world for someone of your abilities. As Dave said, talk to your counselors and doctor about the near-term issues, but don't let them swallow you up. As ownership is often determined by who lets go first, the same goes for life. Don't let go. No one can see the path in front of them. There will be other opportunities that you do not want to miss. And this opportunity may not be totally crushed yet either. With your counselor, family and friends work to determine the next step.

That was a pretty hilarious statement coming from someone who has filled these pages with off-topic opinionated drivel.
