Hi

I go to university, studying math and computer science. I have a lot of trouble sleeping and this and other factors makes it very hard for me to concentrate.

It is affecting my grades - not that I get bad grades and I haven't failed anything yet and I ususally get an average grade, but I am taking fewer subjects than I am suposed to. The problem is that I used to do really good, I used to always get the best grades and since I'm not very good at anything else a lot of my self esteem was hung up on this, and I used to love going to school.

Now I have to force myself to go there every day, I am tired of it, I feel like a failure because I know I can do so much better but I don't. I know I have the brains to do better, but I can't concentrate and I can't remember what I read. I don't know how to keep motivated, I have 3 years left and it seems like forever. I often just want to drop out, but that would just make me a bigger loser. How do you learn to accept that you can't do the things you used to?

I hope someone can relate
