I was hoping it'd be better

I thought that the change to a new semester would make things a little better, but it's already too hard and stressful to deal with.

I'm feeling defeated so often now. I keep thinking that I must've been kidding myself when I thought I was capable of all of these things. Sometimes it's bad to have too much faith in yourself, because it doesn't help anything along. I really think that I'm trying, but my trying isn't good enough, and sometimes it can't be helped.

Giving up isn't something I do, but my options are running low.
