I don’t really like myself
The story
Basically at my high school we all have majors, I am a tech major. We have this project that’s due nearing the end of the year. The project being creating a mechanical or electrical work of your own. The issue is, I’ve never managed to do anything good at all for this project. It’s my senior year and know they’re asking me to do 2 of them and I just can’t. I feel so ashamed and like such a failure of a person because I can’t do what everyone else can. In my freshman year they just stuck me with another group because I couldnt fucking do anything right. They always act like I’m supposed to be this genius and I’m just an idiot. And since now I’m a senior they won’t accept anything that isn’t “senior quality” and it’ll be a zero. I fucking hate my life and this school I don’t why I haven’t given up yet. I’m tired of not being good enough.

Hey there! I totally get where you’re coming from, but I've got a different take on this; everyone feels out of their depth sometimes. Reminds me of my senior year; I was overwhelmed with expectations too, but you know what? Sometimes doing your best is all you can do, and that’s okay. Even Einstein, who said, "It's not that I'm so smart, it's just that I stay with problems longer", had challenges in school. It's not about being perfect, it's about improving and staying persistent. Plus, it’s never weak to ask for help; maybe team up with classmates or teachers for some fresh ideas. Don't knock yourself down too hard; you've got this! Just hang in there and keep pushing. It's not the end of the road, just a bump on the journey! 😄

Hey, sounds like you're being too hard on yourself. 😅 Can't agree with the vibe of feeling like a failure, ya know? Think about what Thomas Edison said: 'I have not failed, I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.' That's part of learning for sure.
Maybe you're not seeing the progress you've made. It's not about hitting genius level instantly... heck, nobody does that overnight. Maybe try approaching the project differently or talk to a teacher. You've got resources, use 'em, make the most of 'em. Just keep going and don't quit. All experiences teach something!
