ok,i am 22 and i am a pretty happy person. i am a deremined person who gets everything done. lately since i went away from home-went to a jr college first and git my associates- i have not been taking care of myself, make one too many promises i cannot keep. i talk on the phone a lot, and my parents think that is what my whole life is about. i told my sister that i got a 54 on a history test even after hours of reading the notes, studying them, having a study group,etc my grade did not improve from my first test grade, i do good on quizzes and worksheets and debates but i bombed 2 tests! on the top of that i have my parents taking my phone away from me, and they expect me to b ein my dorm all the time so that they can check up on me, my sis told my parents about my grade in history before i could and now they think that i lied to them which i have not. they start comparing me to their siblings: mom to her brother and my dad to his brother and how they did not finish a university, etc.

so now my parents told me that if i do not pass the classes they will stop paying for school-which adds on a lot more pressure-how i will never do anything with my life and so forth. on the top of that i have a relationship,a bf who is going through some hard stuff of his own and to whom i cannot complain or even tell what the heck is wrong with me.on th etop of that i told my mom that i neede to talk with 2 history and i spanish teacher-to get some notes and in one class to make up a test but my mom said she knew that i was flunking those classes. i got so mad that this weekend i promised my almost 11 year old brother that i would be there to see him swim on Sat and Sunday which is what i love to do except that being mad at my parents i do not want to go home which makes me the bad guy and miss my brother's swim meet.i am only 22 and studying even if i am on the phone,doing school work and i am about to have a seizure at any second since i am not eating okay, maybe 2 meals daily.help

and when you have your brother call you on the cell and ask you if you will come home that is too much! i feel like i hav elet my brother down by not beeing there! just hearing the words "will you come home tomorrow?" made me cry while i was on the cell with my almost 11 year old brother! i want peace and nothing else, but how do i prove to my parents that the cell is not affecting my history grade? i mean it has not affected any of my other classes and i am making B's in them and this class they dont understand that the teacher does not cut you any slack or give you a curve or any bonus pts oppotunesties unlike my other teachers, even my teacher who teacher HIS part 2 and which is easier then the one that i am making a 54 on test-HIS part 1! tomorrow i have a quiz and a test to make up. do you think that those grades can make my parents look at me differently?
