For the past 2 months, I studied for a test for like 10+ hours a day. 2 weeks back, I got my results back but they were really average ( I scored around 75% ). This was surprising and quite demotivating. I somehow picked myself up to study again for the exam. ( I need at least 90% to get into a good school ).
My parents and my friends have been constantly reminding me of my failures. For the past 2 weeks, I was reminded of how hard I studied and still scored average and I was told that "No matter what I do, I couldn't succeed". I even handled this criticism and went back inside my room to continue studying.
BUT recently WHILE I was studying, my father walked into my room and SHOUTED at me for wasting his money on my education. He shut my laptop down and told me that to stop studying and do some job instead of going for higher education. This scene lasted for an hour and broke me in such a way that now I couldn't even gather the strength to pick up a pen and study. Due to this, I am highly demotivated to study again.
Now when I sit to study, my books give me traumas as they remind me of this situation. I am afraid that people might come into my room and stop me from studying. I can't get past this fear anymore and now I am completely unable to study. I need a way to motivate myself to study again.
