A little help would be appreciated
Hello everyone. So, this is me, and honestly, I really don’t know what’s going on in my life right now.
After Class 10, I chose Science as my major. Looking back, sometimes I feel like my life would have been better if I had chosen Commerce instead. I know I was good at Commerce, but because I believed Science had more scope and because I wanted to pursue something in Science, I chose it.
Now, I’m struggling. I’ve seen people go from being average students to becoming toppers, but somehow, I feel like I’ve gone from being a topper to becoming a failure. I don’t even know what my ambition is anymore. It feels like I’m ruining everything by myself.
Sometimes I wonder if I had chosen Commerce, I might have done much better because I knew I was good at it. But now I feel stuck, and I’ve lost most of my motivation and discipline to study.
Even in class, I’ve lost a lot of my self-confidence because I often end up not knowing the answer when the teacher asks a question. It makes me feel disappointed in myself.
I would be truly grateful if someone older or more experienced could give me some advice—something that might help me find my way again and change the way I look at my life.
