I'm currently in my 3rd year in college - so I've made it pretty far, yeah - and this semester I'm sitting with a couple D's and a grade that I have no hope in. The course with the hopeless grade is what I'm considering retaking because why not? It was challenging the first time so a second time I can learn from my mistakes.

But there are these negative thoughts seeping into my head saying "You're such a bad, untimely student." "You're a disgrace to everyone." Why couldn't you recover from your depression sooner?" (I was in a bad state of mind for the first 2 months this semester, and now that I will receive help from a counselor (appt. next week), I snapped back and am desperately trying to catch up. It come in cycles).

I just feel so... sunken. I'm trying to remain positive but I can't. Like I'm half-way done with college, why the heck am I so down for?
