school help: pls help, i’m in year 12 and am freaking out about this - Help.com

pls help, i’m in year 12 and am freaking out about this week coming…

I have 4 SACS - they are like major tests which count towards your final score. I am trying as hard as I can to get all my study done but there is so much to do. I still have maths exercises to catch up on before I can do some revision sheets, and I really have no idea how I am going to tackle my english essay. English is my best subject, maths is by far my worse, however since I am good at english I have been neglecting that a bit in order to keep on top of maths. Except now both tests are on the same day and I am behind in both subjects.
I only have tomorrow to somehow ‘finish’ studying. What do I do?
I’m so stressed out & everything atm is going wrong. I’m just sick of all the pressure & am fed up with being behind. Can someone please offer some advice?
I’m trying to take each day as it comes except each day is always bad.

On top of all this & the other stuff getting to me in my other posts, I had school aths this week and got injured while racing. I’ve pulled the muscles in my lower back which I did last year really badly (was off for 6 weeks from dancing), and now the injury has come back. It means I can’t go for runs or dance atm to let off heat & escape from it all. That was my substitute for cutting. But now I can barely walk, let alone run so I’m worried I’m going to fall back into my old bad habit.

I don’t mean to complain.. its just I’m in a really bad point atm and reallly need some help.
Thanks for reading this..

dont worry, life is not about test grades or A’s or B’s or C’s. Those mean nothing. If you quit worrying, it will all be ok. I did that for my math test last thursday, and it was the best test I had taken all year. That was because I didn’t care what happened, which allowed me to free my mind

thank you for replying.

yea I agree that worrying can make you perform worse.
I had a maths sac last term which I’d studied for except i had a panic attack during it & so completely mucked it up. i ended up failing the test.

Sometimes I just can’t get my head around the stress/worry stuff.. I can’t control it sometimes. Getting a good score means so much to me ( and to my mum ) so sometimes the pressure just gets too much & I break down.
I don’t want it to happen again, but telling myself that it doesn’t matter doesn’t seem to help me.

geeze, i should just give up and run away.
I cant do this.

thanks for your help anyway

1st take a deep breath, and try and calm. I don’t know where u are from. But all you can do is your best, that may not sound like the greatest advice but its true. I have 3 kids (grown up now) I always found that if you read the most important bits before u go to sleep for some reason it stays in your head. Also do u get multiple choice questions if so make sure you answer all of them even if you are only guessing. Chance says u will get some right. Go though the paper answer the questions u know, then go back over what u don’t. But like I said don’t leave any unanswered it is worth guessing. You say you are good at English so you will probably do fine on that anyway and just do your best on the math. Try not to panic as that can freeze your brain. As for cutting yourself have you had help with this in the past, if so go back and talk to whoever helped you. If not try and talk to someone do you have counselors at school, talk to them, they will understand and will help. Good luck with exams and please seek help for the cutting, I know it gives a release of tension but it is only temporary. It is not a long term solution.
