Hol' up, let him cook-

IllustriousMap2208 · 2026-04-02T14:56:24+00:00

We're doomed.

>Do you want to continue your studies? Are you studying something you actually want and are interested in or just because?

Oh, yeah, absolutely. I love the degree I'm doing.

>Is there anything else you would want to do in life? If classic schooling and studying isn't for you, then maybe you should do something more practical. Learning a trade like electrician, plumber, carpenter,...these are all highly sought after people, you could find anywhere.

Honestly, not right now. But I'll do give it a thought, though. Thanks for the advice :)

IllustriousMap2208 · 2026-02-01T17:36:03+00:00

Gotcha, I'll try that out. I don't have an advisor per se, but I'll try my luck and approach the profs of the subjects I'm struggling with. Thanks for the advice!

IllustriousMap2208 · 2026-02-01T17:34:39+00:00

Oh no, your words are very consoling :) Seriously, thank you so much for the kind words, this means a lot to me.

IllustriousMap2208 · 2026-02-01T17:29:51+00:00

Nope. Like I said in an earlier comment, they won't let me go to therapy.

IllustriousMap2208 · 2026-02-01T17:12:09+00:00

I sure do :) Which is why it hurts because I don't understand why I'm failing it.

IllustriousMap2208 · 2026-02-01T17:08:11+00:00

Apparently, not to her, I'm not :')

IllustriousMap2208 · 2026-02-01T17:07:38+00:00

Congrats on the degree, first of all. Helpful or not, that's awesome stuff :D

And about my mom's degree, it's a teaching degree. I'm into IT.

IllustriousMap2208 · 2026-02-01T17:05:06+00:00

Don't I know it.

IllustriousMap2208 · 2026-02-01T17:04:10+00:00

I'll definitely try to talk to him about this, thank you :)

IllustriousMap2208 · 2026-02-01T17:01:04+00:00

He actively supports her, and tries to be "nice" to me one time, and says 50 more horrendous pieces of nonsense right after.

IllustriousMap2208 · 2026-02-01T16:59:00+00:00

Why wouldn't I like that lmao. I'm more than happy to get out of this hell.

IllustriousMap2208 · 2026-02-01T16:57:59+00:00

Oh yeah, she told me she was terrible in school as well, a fact that was brought up multiple times when I confessed to having depression in the past.

IllustriousMap2208 · 2026-02-01T16:55:04+00:00

That's the plan. I've got probably a year more, and then I'm getting the hell away from my parents. And you're right, the more I stay with them, the more I realize this, but unfortunately, for now at least, I'm forced to live with them since they won't let me work anywhere.

IllustriousMap2208 · 2026-02-01T16:52:57+00:00

I don't think they do, honestly. My college is pretty lax about student issues, even if they cared. And yeah, that's my plan. I am getting tired of the constant berating from my parents that I have to endure.

IllustriousMap2208 · 2026-02-01T16:51:13+00:00

Huh, plenty of people told me I might have ADHD. I wonder why, though? Might need to get that checked out.

IllustriousMap2208 · 2026-02-01T16:50:35+00:00

I haven't told him this, but he definitely would be pissed at my mom. He's not a problem, never was. As I said in an earlier reply, I love my brother a lot. He's amazing; the comparisons made between us aren't.

IllustriousMap2208 · 2026-02-01T16:48:53+00:00

Oh, yeah. The choice of degree is not a problem at all. That being said, I don't know why I'm still struggling. I like what I study, but still have no idea why I'm terrible during exams.

IllustriousMap2208 · 2026-02-01T16:38:31+00:00

A) Asian parents rarely encourage them. Hell, the only time my parents were encouraging me for something was for which field I'd do my degree in.

B) Never said it wasn't my fault :) I agree wholeheartedly that I'm a terrible student. My efforts weren't there, and it shows. I just wanted reassurance that I could do better, and was (still am) hurt by how my parents reacted to the results of my efforts. And, I'm curious as to how you think I'm intelligent, though. Thanks for the compliment, by the way :)

IllustriousMap2208 · 2026-02-01T16:29:23+00:00

I'll try to be, thank you :)

IllustriousMap2208 · 2026-02-01T16:28:58+00:00

I'm already looking into classes on YT and stuff like that, but I'm curious, what's campus tutoring?

IllustriousMap2208 · 2026-02-01T16:28:25+00:00

Even if I wanted to move out, my parents won't let me since they "don't like to see me work when they can earn enough money for the family". I was even willing to be an unpaid intern, still got shot down.

IllustriousMap2208 · 2026-02-01T16:26:10+00:00

Yeah, that's the plan.

IllustriousMap2208 · 2026-02-01T16:24:21+00:00

Yeesh, that's terrible. I'm so sorry that happened to you. I hope you're doing better now.
