Hey y’all, so I’m 16 and a junior and school is just awful. I’m homeschooled, so I’m taking 5 online classes and 2 in-person classes (piano&art) and I’ve kinda given up? So, freshman year I got pretty good grades, all A’s and B’s, sophomore was worse; B’s C’s and an A. And this year is even worse. So far I have F’s in all my classes except for two C’s. I don’t know what’s wrong with me but I just don’t have any motivation to do school anymore. (my parents have taken away my phone, blocked youtube/all social media and nothing works) I can’t imagine myself having any kind of future, and even the end of the week seems so far away. I’ve thought that I might have ADHD since I was about 10, but my mom refuses to get it checked out (but she just told my Chem tutor that I have it?) and I dunno. I’m a smart person and I enjoy learning, but school man. I’ve tried like every study technique but nothing works. Maybe this is more of a rant, but I really need help and I don’t know what to do.

You sound depressed. GO see your pediatrician, family doctor, or therapist, ask for help.
Also, it sounds like homeschool’s not working for you anymore.
Repeat your grade in a regular HS: retake all classes you got an F in plus whatever you need for college and HS state requirements. Join clubs, find friends, and talk to a therapist ASAP.
Note that you’re expected to have the following classes for a moderately selective college : 4 years each of English and History/Social science (sometimes, economics&financial literacy and/or gov are required by the State) + each of bio, chem, physics + a foreign language up to level 3 + math through precalculus or calculus + art/music.
Why are you homeschooled? It would seem that the structure of school might be good for you.
I am the kind of person that is not good when just left alone, but excel when I have a structure.
