I need some help about yahoo answers.

I screwed up in school and I need some direction Yahoo Answers' most ambitious academics, will you help me?

• Awwwwlright, I don't mean to make this long but I like to give me questions some background. I am generally a very good student and I I'm almost fanatical about my grades. When I tell you that I'm so far a 4.0 student I hope you realize I'm not bragging - but that I am very ambitious and It's important in letting you know how "elephantine" an issue this is. Last semester I did relatively well and got all A's ( all but 2 of which were over 99% in the class at the final) but this semester, which started this week - I have gotten 2 grades back in 2 different classes so far and they were both C's. Needless to say, I am VERY concerned and here is why. I see myself as rather unattractive and though I hate to admit it, socially I am as awkward as can be. I sit alone at lunch and study. I do homework on Friday nights. When the teacher says she wants a paragraph - I'll write her a book. I meander from class to class and to my house often without saying a word to anyone but my teachers. Safe to say, I have turned my schoolwork into my life, and until I end up with an Aston Martin, a mansion, and a model for a wife, I don't see that changing. My motto is this: "Though I am ugly, awkward, skinny and worthless - I am disciplined and capable. I am resolute and assiduous and WILL NOT allow myself to fail." Anyway - all my ambitions are placed atop me getting good grades (and dare I say - graduating with a 4.0) It's my purpose, and when I don't succeed at it - it's honestly like I have lived a failed life. Anyway, I figured that there must be someone on Yahoo answers that has experienced something similar and I want them to enlighten me as to how I can get myself in the mindset to succeed. I don't want to know "How to get good grades." I want to know how I can pull myself out of this slump and MAKE myself a success once again. How do fix things at the start of the semester before it's too late? I know you guys are competitive - but I need your help.

• Answer:

  I'll leave the grade issue for someone else. Do you know of anyone who has an Aston Martin, a mansion, and a model for a wife? Even if these were true, being ugly, awkward, and skinny DO NOT have any effect on one's worth. Being disciplined, capable, and resolute are excellent qualities. When "less-than-ideal" things upset you and cause such damage to your self-esteem, you might possibly/probably have an anxiety condition that will greatly benefit from a little professional counseling. As important, doctors have mild but wonderful treatments. These two avenues sure are working for me!
