Blackpill Ruining my academic life cuz I just can't seem to make myself study- pick up the book even like three days before exams

[glowIntheDark]

So I have always been an extremely lazy person since my childhood but cuz of slightly above average iq I was able to coast through high school with bare minimum studying (think 8-9 hours before the tests) and was also able to get into a decent University. Now my bluepilled ass decided to take some of the heaviest majors out there (double major in math and data science with a minor in chemistry) and I am - perhaps for the first time in my life surrounded by people of way higher iq then mine.

I am barely managing to pass my course and I can't drop out cuz investment in tuition and now I am stuck miserable.

I am so chronically braindead I barely pick up my book not even on the day of exam and am failing so many of my courses. At this point i wouldn't even be eligible for a degree or summer internship.


I know I will become conscious like this for a day and two then go right back to bedrotting and not attending classes. I hate myself for doing this to myself.

I wish I was like my brother tho. Yes he is normie and prolly and inkwell too but man does he have a strong work ethic.

That bitch will attend his lectures and is currently employed in a great law firm and if not bitches atleast has money to splurge on his shitty games.

Internalize what books you plan to read, and will yourself to. Prior to that, take your bath, eat, and rest a bit.

'I will read [insert] book today; after I take my bath and eat'. You could tie it to an event you'll likely do, like: scrolling on here -- but set a timer. I like to listen to calm music when I read, because it gets very boring; having something to munch -- cookies, sweets -- also help.

tales of every above average IQfag.
I'm going through the same shit and it's tiring cuz you get lifemogged, IQmogged and every possible mog in college.

Getting in a decent competitive college is disastrous, better to go to a third tier college and be the topper there.

we are on the same boat

Some people learn differently than others. I hated studying until I finally realized that I was doing it wrong.

Instead of trying to read and memorize things, go with the attitude that "everything a person has made, created and invented, another person can figure out" Try to understand why things exist and the way they are and understand the context behind it.

Plus there's a shit ton of youtube videos that explain topics way better these days than they did 15 years ago. Maybe if you're lucky, you'll find some videos that explain the topic super well and better than whats in the books

I usually just drink tons of coffe. I legit can't read a sentence without it. And i cycle it 2-3 days on one day off.

An advice I have that somewhat worked for me is to realise that thinking of doing a difficult task is often more painful than actually doing it.
So what I do is that I try to get into it as fast as I can, once you're into it, it's usually easier.
But if you think "should I get into it?" for too long, you will probably give up.
So try that, next time you think "I have to do this", do it immediately if you can.

Lol i am the same. I hate studycucking and only do so the night before the exam. It's also very easy to pass exams here. They pass almost everyone.

I got up at 03-04:00 to study. I would have no energy after the lectures because of how much of a subhuman I would feel around other people.
That actually made me better student than them, and it led me to have some unexpected experiences with normies and a Stacy there.

i naturally have a high caffeine tolerance coffee just makes me feel sleepy to get some affect I have to drink 400mg caffeine coffee (think 1-1.5 red bull worth caffeine) n it ends up making me feel like shit .

anyways how do u cycle it maybe it will work for me

Damn, I need around 70-150mg, no more for the day. At 200mg I start jittering like crazy, but still drink that amount because I like feeling my heart beating and I actually feel a very mild high.
But when I use it exclusively for productivity, I do the 70-150 dosage.
For me caffeine (depending on the amount) moves my sleep clock for 1-2h, even though I drink it first thing in the morning, and do like 3-4h of work, not continually, but I'm content with that amount.
So because of that I i do like 2-5 days on. And 1-2 days off (depending on how my sleep has been affected). Most commonly it's 3 days on one day off.
I never really feel withdrawals and don't get people who say "don't talk to me before I've had my coffee".

But all drugs vary on the person, maybe you should try VERY small dose of amphetamine based medication. Remember, the smallest effective dose with these things (including coffee) is always the best.

Good luck!

Btw I also used to drink L-theanine, and idk if it was placebo, but I think it helped a fair amount honestly. Mixed with coffee it gives a good boost imo. I stopped because I was broke, even though it's not expensive.

Same, I always plan 1 week before exams to study really hard and use lots of stimulants.

I just rewatch all the lectures and write notes.

If it's a more mathy/practice subject, I just practice the exercises all day they give me.
