I finally figured out my problem.
I think I have OCD because I keep thinking this ' particular ' thought over and over! for almost 3 years now.
And it is just whenever I try to study.I am a good students but I am damn sure because of this stupid problem I got 3As and 5bs and everyone was shocked!
Its not like a constant problem. I can put a STOP to it but only for short term but then something goes wrong again,and I find myself worrying about it again.

It started when I was preparing for an exam and I just normally started thinking that why all of a sudden people are always judging me etc...until then I realize,the thought wasnt going away....because I was too busy thinking how to make others accept me and just dwelling over it finding myself troublesome in those worrying techniques.

Finally,my eyes were opened n i was reminded of who i wz.I just shouldnt think wat others think of me but this panicky thought about loosing control of thoughts while i wz studying has stayed inside me head.

What should I do to stop it?Can I overcome it just by telling myself " DONT DO IT? " but then I think that ' it ' is a ' problem ' and i cant just solve it like as its with me for 3 yrs.
Now I know this thought is another problem, lol

but pls tell me to quickly stop it.

I have SAT next month and I dont want to be thinking those stupid thoughts while Im giving my exam like it happened in my A levels!(1 B 2Cs)when everyone expects me of 3 As

Is there any one you can talk with, either at school or a doctor? I am not in the medical field, so I don't know the right answer for your situation. I can relate to the pressures of grades and school stress. Everyone expected perfection, but I was just trying to get through each day. All I can do is send you hugs.

I think you definitely have to talk to somebody. Could be OCD, could be anxiety, could be good ol' (read bad ol') stress.

It doesn't matter what the diagnosis is, really. You just need to talk to someone who can give you techniques to help you concentrate...or medication, if that's what it comes to.
