i think im becoming more stupid, im 17 and started college like a year ago.

i used to think and learn fast(a year ago), get A’s on maths and sciences.
i’ll have to admit im not that bright on the EQ side. i dont do well in english and i dont socialize very well.
but that’s a different thing, since i entered college i’ve been slacking off, not even bothered to study and sleep during lectures. and so yeah i got a really crap gpa for that(1.3), i thought that was just because i didnt study. but then.. now…
i cant even do simple mental calculations
i think too long when i play chess and still mess up(i used to enter competitions)
i learn very very slow, unlike my classmates, which leads to
everyone looking down on me and treating me like an idiot.
i get angry very very easily now
factors:
i never studied
i played games too much
i drink, not that often though(this damages your brain cell, correct?)
i dont sleep very much because i play games
i dont have 3 meals a day(i just got gastric recently)

I WANT TO FIX MYSELF, I CANT STAND BEING TREATED LIKE AN IDIOT, I CANT EVEN STAND LOOKING AT MYSELF
PLEASE, ANYONE OUT THERE, HELP ME!! WHAT SHOULD I DO??

When you stop applying yourself and learning your brain will lose everything it once knew. Try staying away from all the bad things college life has to offer and sit in your room and re-learn everything you once knew. Don’t slack off anymore your future depends on it.

I actually heard of a study that proves the man teaches us nothing in public universities, so I boycott them!

I’d say your bored…if things don’t interest us we tend to let them in one ear out the other. You used to do great in math and science because you found it interesting. I’d say you also need to turn off the computer games…some mmo’s are totally addictive and there are not what is important right now. Got friends in the game, give them your email to chat from time to time…the games will still be there when you graduate and you can allot a bit of time to them then. Missing sleep and not eating right will also affect your ability to concentrate and learn.
As for teh booze…do I really need to say what you already know. Unless the answers to a test are at the bottom of a bottle chuck that aside.
This is the time that shaoes your entire future…either turn off the games, kick the drinking, and eat right and sleep right, tudy hard to catch up or…wait for the boot from college and learn to say *fries with that, sir?* with a smile on your face.
