I dont know hats happening with me. I cant concentrate on anything. I keep forgetting things. The thought that me not existing will be better than the smallest of my worries (especially failing) keeps coming back. Normally I cant imagine anything but when these thoughts come, i imagine myself dying. Imagined myself dying atleast 4 times just now.

Hey! Thanks for reaching out. Is it just one thought that keeps coming? Are you sure you mind is not occupied with other agendas? Has anything happened in the recent past due to which you are upset?

Okay, do you prepare well before exam? I am sure you must be able to write well in your exams.

I try to but i cant concentrate at all. Everytime I sit to study, i get up within 10 mins or am distracted

20 mins is the average attention span of any individual, sit for 20 mins then take a break for 5 mins and start again.

I tried sitting for 15 mins. It worked sometimes but then I would take long breaks. Within 5 mins of starting to study I start thinking about everything else. I know studying is important but there is this feeling that I dont want to study at all that takes over me. Its like chahe jo karva lo par padhai mat karvao. I want to study but the minute I start studying, I dont want to study anymore.
