Quote:Maybe you should. You won't be able to ever resolve them or improve yourself if you don't. Although I must say I'm not one to talk. ^^;I used to do that, but I stopped after A.P. biology in my sophomore year of high school. I know; I've told this story before, but I'll tell it again, because it was a real turning point in my life. The workload was so large, that I honestly and rightfully believed that I couldn't possibly get through it, so I didn't do it. The work just built up, and I knew that I had to do it, but I kept avoiding it. That's the closest I ever came to being suicidal, wanting a way out of something I didn't want to even attempt. Eventually, I bit the bullet. I missed sleep and all free time and did it all. Since then, I won't consciously tell myself that I can't do something, because it just leads to problems. Besides, it usually turns out that I can. Getting back to the topic, this is the biggest reason why I love myself.
