Going to class sucks - October 19th 2011, 04:04 PM

There is no time in the day that I am more inclined to have negative thoughts than when I am in class. My learning style is to read the book and that gets me A's. But professors expect me to go to class. But sitting there for a 90 minute lecture allows the negatives in life to come in full view. And its impossible to listen because most professors suck at teaching, instructors are only meant for research, thats how they get recognition,etc. so when it comes to teaching undergrad, they just do a half hearted job of simply writing examples from the textbook on the board. Basically, going to math class is simply watching someone copy examples already in the book onto the board. It isnt interactive, engaging,etc. at all.

I really really really dont want to go to class. I get nothing from it. I could just read the book.

A therapist told me she thinks i have depression. i feel depressed a lot, but i tend to keep myself occupied so i dont have to feel bad. But whenever im in an environment like a class, the negatives come to my attention and it makes the whole day seem sad.

Half my teachers suck to. I pay attention in a limited number of classes. In the rest I occupy myself by reading a novel or by doodling or drawing something. Or if someone around me is not paying attention in class then passing notes to them. Sometimes I just pass the time by translating everything to french.

You are running away from the depressing thoughts. Seems to me that you are in depression. Don't run away from them. Try to confront them and find a solution. You can't spend your life running away from problems. Its no good. It'll just harm you.

Its easier said that done BUT most of the great things wouldn't have ever been done if they hadn't been said first.
