I used to be a straight A student in school; spent ages on assignments and was labelled a perfectionist, but it easy work. I had some issues in late high school, felt depressed, was scared of socialising, got teased, but it didn't really affect my work.
But things started happening. I'd get frustrated with assignments. I'd always enjoyed writing essays, English being one of my favourite subjects. But now, I'd sit down and just get kinda angry about it. I'd have a lot of trouble getting started, and if I managed to, I couldn't work on it long without losing my cool and start crying, or screw the paper up and throw it. I'd think '**** this, why should I do it?' or 'it's too hard' when I know that the assignment was something a couple of years ago I'd have relished. I quit high school at the start of year 12, and that was a big part of the reason.
Since, it has carried over to other things, i.e I need to wash the dishes, but I'll get too frustrated and go cry over it.
But why?!
