Answers:
Yes depression and anxiety can certainly affect your grades!. However, it's very normal to feel depressed or anxious at this stage of life!. I remember it all too well and it's a priod of great excitement and confusion as well!.

I have suffered from and researched depression on and off for years!. Finally I decided to try a medication after seeing my doctor!. It helped with both my depression and anxiety!. however, being a teel there can be adverse side effects from many of theses medications!. up to and including suicide!.

Some studies show that exercise can have a better effect on depression than many medications!. You may want to try getting physically active!. Another means to help combat this is talking with someone you respect!. I don't mean your friends, but maybe a counselor, or, your parents if they can be understanding and supportive!.

Keep in mind that there are many people who are in the same boat and this can be a normal state of mind for someone your age!. The best bet is to talk with someone and get out and do something to take your mind off the anxiety!.

A 3!.25 GPA isn't too bad!. It won't get you into Harvard, but I highly doubt your future is ruined!. Being young gives you many second chances!. Cut yourself some slack!.

Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Sure it can, Polly, and it can also do with losing a best or group of friends, bf, parental problems!. If you have done well in school in the past then I think we can rule out ADD or ADHD!?!?

If u do an inventory on yourself and do not see what has changed in your life to cause the pit you've dropped in to!.!.!.!.try looking at the future!.!.!.!.you will sooner-than-u-think be king of the hill; a senior!. At that point you can direct your mind to your future as an adult, and if that scares you, you've discovered the problem!.!.!. a mild anxiety/depression/fear of the future, getting out on your own!. Then talk to your folks and school counselor, as well, seek out a good therapist, they can do wonders!.

You have much to look forward to, try to remember that, it could be much worse!. There but for the grace of God go u or I!.
