Someone once asked...

“I used to be so energetic, productive, happy and ‘intellectually’ as a child and now that I’m grown up I’ve lost all that spark and I feel so tired and sad all the time. I used to be so excited to go to school but now I dread it. I used to be such a “genius” as a child but now I’m just one of the average kids.”

this is so relatable to me honestly as i'm experiencing the same, but hey, its a pretty common thing that happens to people like us, its just a type of burnout, it might be a bit hard to get out of this slump but its never impossible. so stay strong buddy, take it one step at a time, its okay to feel like you are falling behind everyone, but if you rush it, things will only get worse, just take it slow and make some progress to it every time... remember to take rests, do not ignore your body.. find a new hobby which you can look upto or maybe meditate every day for a few minutes, even better if you can start working out or lifting, personally, working out really helps me elevate my mood, its like all the anger and sadness had washed away from my body for sometime.. these things really help you to manage your mood. i believe in you, you can do it!! take it slow, build small habits and you will get there academically and mentally!! and im proud of you! have a good day!

Dude I understand. I was the same too. Just don't focus on the bad things and try to get ur spark back again. Do whatever u can with ur life rn. Gran every opportunity that comes ur way. Take risks, embarass urself, test urself. Do whatever it takes to get urself on back in track. Don't let ur surroundings of anything control u. If u do nothing, nothing will change so start ur self improvement journey and shine bright like a diamond. U will look back and realise why u didn't start early.

This one is exactly like me! I used to be this and now I genuinely have no idea what to do with myself. I feel numb and I have no will to live on. And I'm afraid im being selfish because I have a home and loving, supportive parents. I feel so awful at times for being the way I am but I'm like unable to make myself any better. I have no idea why I became like this.

That's what happens maybe your are tired of that and your energy got low . Just take your time and restart everything from little.
