I'm failing everything first semester

I have no motivation to do anything. I haven’t been able to make any friends in college, and that’s gotten me pretty down. I had a lot of friends in high school, and that’s made it that much harder to deal with knowing nobody. I met a lot of people online, and literally all I want to do all day is chat with them and do random stuff online together with them, and that’s literally what I’ve been doing all day for the past few weeks. I rarely go to class because when I do, I feel stupid, as I don’t understand anything in the lectures. I can study past material in my dorm, but I’m running out of time to study for final exams and there’s too much to review, and too much I don’t understand.

I’ve just become so lazy that it feels like there’s no way out. I know that I have to be studying for hours and hours everyday to be able to do at least sort of well on the exams, but being productive for more than 30 minutes a day takes so much energy that I don’t have.

I have almost zero motivation and almost no time. Does anyone that may have been in a similar situation have any advice for me?

Go to your school counseling staff. Ask them for help with your mental health and with setting up a tutoring schedule. You need to go to class.

You may have an addiction - if you cannot leave your online friends in order tonight to class, you have a problem.
Go to the counseling center, tell them you have an online addiction and barely leave your room, make an emergency appointment but also plan tonight back twice a week till winter break, go to class even if you don’t want to go, salvage whatever you can.
If there’s still time, drop one class and take the W. Choose to drop a sequential subject, where learning in jovemer depends on learning achieved in october. English, history are more process and skills so you could squeak back with a C if you start from now.
Have you turned in your work?
