Hey so my parents are good parents first of all but they are very overprotective and that isn't always a good thing. I am feeling suffocated. "Lexi do your homework, do your homework, do your homework, homework, homework, homework, HOMEWORK!!!!" It is driving me nuts and it doesn't help that my anxiety has gotten really bad and I am having a really hard time holding it together right now. I have a moutain of homework and it is sky high. :eeeekkk I have had three anxiety attacks at school and my parents on my back about homework is not helping. I am working hard. I really am but sometimes it gets hard to work when I freak out. So please pray that things get better because I am freaking out and I need space! I know my parents are worried and all and that's fine but I really wish they would go worry somewhere else so I don't flip out because when I know I have this this and this due it doesn't help when my parents are on my back about it. I don't know how I'm going to get through tomorrow. I feel really anxous right now and I feel lie if I go to school and I'm not able to be at home where I can get stuff done I'm going to flip out. I don't want to go through that again. I hate that feeling. :shocked!Please please pleas please please pleas please pray.
Also one more thing...my parents are Cartholic and everything but...I'm hesitant to say this because I don't want to be judemental but...let's just say our values are VERY differnt if you catch my drift *wink* *wink* like REALLY differnt. They think I am judgemental and that I am close mided because I am so in to God and stuff. So please keep them in your prayers and that they stop pressuring me and for me and my anxiety. Thanks guys. :heart
 
Ah, the joys of enduring parents who care!

No worries, Lexi ... you're in my prayers; your parents as well. It's not easy being a teen....nor is it easy being a parent.

I understand the mountain of work to do and the feeling of being overwhelmed. It's Sunday evening, and I still have two books to read in order to write up a sensible and logical critique of each. Since I'm online & not reading either book, my official alibi is that I'm taking a break.

Sometimes, taking a short-term break while tackling a mountain of work is a good thing. Just be sure to set a time limit for said break, and return to that mountain. Cleansing of the brain is a necessity as you shift from one subject to another.

Your parents are on your back about the work because they care. True, they don't have to always repeat the reminder...but their concern is that you don't fall behind on homework, especially since the school term has but a handful of weeks remaining before summer break.

The next time they remind you, take a deep breath, smile, and say: "Thank you, (Mom or Dad). I love you."

Those words touch hearts...and most of us just don't hear them often enough.

Have fun studying!

:wave
 
hi sis you got my prayer !
Regarding your " homework, homework, homework" my only advice is refrain from procrastination so that they will not pile up, you know what i mean...if you have one homework today , do it as soon as possible so that you will still have time and energy for the other subjects in the class. Sometimes procrastination is our way to cope up our anxiety but I’m telling you it will also be the reason of more pressure and anxiety in the future so you will think that you’ll be less productive in almost everything you do. And about your parents sis, ahmm like you’ve said they’re worried so I think that is normal but it should not be to the extent that they push you too much of your capacity .

And about this, “ They think I am judgemental and that I am close mided because I am so in to God and stuff†….stay strong and be humble and stay respectful to them coz your parents are reading your actions more than your words .

You can do that sis! Enjoy your homework!:-):D
 
Update: :verysick<---That's me barfing up all the history I had to do. However out of my History stroy notes, my Histroy paper, My history book report and my big math thingy all my history is done!!!!! All that needs to be done is some memorizing and some editing. I still have the big math thingy to do but that isn't due until June 4th and I am way ahead in that. :thumbsup So whatever you said to God he heard you loud and clear so thank you God for listening and responding! And thank you guys for your prayers! And now I am going to pArtY! :bday Well relax actually but it's the same thing. :yes
 
Praise God for His deep and abiding love!

Wonderful news, JF ... now you can take a wee bit of a breather before the math 'thingy'. Prayers will continue... after all, math thingy's can be rather calculating critters. Sometimes, their bark can be worse than their bite...then again.....

Still, it's great the history portion of your studies is now...er...history itself!

:yes :-) :lol
