I can totally relate. My perfectionism hasn't been about getting A's in school, though. It's more that I have to be trying my hardest in everything, or else I don't see the point in trying at all. I really struggle with that... I don't understand when people tell me to cut myself some slack -- what's the point in trying if I'm not going to give it my all? In school, I realize I'm not a straight A student, but if I didn't work my butt off to get that B, then I'd rather take the F... I know this isn't helping. The only thing I've found that helps is positive self talk. It's really hard, though, and I don't always believe it, or even want to believe it...

If you have a T, I would definitely bring this up with them. Good luck!
