I want to just delete my Discord, FB, Reddit, Second Life and other social sites so I can just be focused on myself. But I can’t because the guilt of seemingly deserting those I have left, will be hard to deal with.

That’s how I feel about astronomy and science in general really…
That and I’m also really stupid so I could never be a scientist lol
I am not stupid. But was in a terrible enviorment in school which is why i sucked in school, am only now discovering my many passions and why i didnt continue school. Because it was a devils circle. Bad enviorment -> no motivation/drive -> bad grades -> more self dislike and repeecussions from the bad emviorment -> no motivation aso.
i had a pretty terrible experience with my CC run, somehow this is one of many CC in our area decided to have ivy league level courses, that they claim for some UC to accept(mostly in the critical areas that people need to transfer with, STEM, english). while the nearby state uni dint have that same issue, and its far easier as far as classes go. so this cause alot of people to drop/withdraw courses all the time, or change majors suddenly.
several incidents were noted in the past, that people attempt to return to campus after academic dismisal i dont know if this the only CCollege in our area, people stay way past 2+years.
non-scientist(who arnt majoring physics ,engineering, or astronomy) physics college classes(the one requiring lots of math/trig) were too complex for me eventhough i passed it, even though i liked the subject. too many intricate calculations and concepts.
if you plan to major in it, you need to do higher math courses for it.
Math is one of the main reasons I didn’t go for anything science related. I need to understand HOW something works in order to retain it. Every math class I ever had was always “when you see x36h638f then do the formula 362h+gsue6-8226g/h7383 because stone cold said so.” …like how the fuck am I supposed to not only memorize that completely abstract nonsense, but remember how/when to apply it?? My dumbass brain doesn’t work that way
physics and chemistry both required convoluted abstract thinking, and deriving formulas from. i went to a CC that decided to make most of thier stem closer to what harder colleges took, ivy league level
