World turning battle field

Hi everyone. It's so frustrating for teens who are trying to maintain their grades, experience peer pressure and don't have the support of their parents, teachers, or any family member or elderly one. It's so hard to complete the syllabus before the exam arrives while experiencing the dull days of hopelessness. But there are some teachers in school who pressurize students to do more. Like taking part in different activities and giving lectures on how those students are so hopeless who don't involve themselves in school activities. And parents who constantly compare their children to other kids. Teachers and parents are suppose to be encouraging their kids and students to have confidence in themselves, not judging them by the lack of interests in activities or not participating in class or not being happy all the time. They just don't try to understand the stuffs teenagers go through. A person is suppose to fight with the world not with their parents and teachers. And there are people in society who refuse to understand about mental health, just think that teenagers can't get depressed. I am not telling that every parents and teacher are this way. Some are caring and understanding but only few.

Hey I can totally understand what you mean. I saw in your profile that you are Indian,and my god I remember the amount of pressure I had to do well in my 10th and 12th boards. It is difficult when your parents compare you to others.

I hope you find a way to isolate yourself and don't let them affect you as I am sure you have the potential to be brilliant.

Do message me if you just need someone to listen or any support.

Take care!

There are many people like you including me that are not sure of what they should do. But there is one thing I tell myself and I think you should too that no matter what others say ,no one knows you better than you ,that is you are amazing, even if you are not a topper etc. Because everyone is unique and that is what make them special. And for getting better grades just remember the competition should be with yourself not from other,that is the key to get better. Someone wise told it to me.

Hope that this reply has helped you.
