Forgot How to Study

Some context: I was a straight A student my entire life. I graduated undergrad with a 4.0 and scored on the 99th percentile for my DAT. I got into dental school on my first attempt and now I just can’t study. I can’t focus for more than 30 minutes and as a result, I did terrible in my first year. All of my peers seem to be doing so well — even ones who got in with a lower gpa and DAT score. I end up scrolling YouTube shorts for hours to numb my pain and anxiety. No matter how much I need to and want to study — I just can’t bring myself to physically start studying.

To make matters worse, I’m kind of attractive and get a lot of attention from everyone in my class. As a result, they always have their nose in my business and are judging everything about my — like this one guys literally waited outside of the classroom to see what car I pulled up in and took down my licence plate and his girl friends made fun of me the rest of the semester for driving a Honda.

I need advice. Someone HELPPP 😭
