Low self esteem , Negative mindset
I am neet aspirant ( 2nd drop ). Upto 10th I was topper , have clarity and focused , positive mindset coz I have supporting people like teachers and family . when I took neet and start prepare in home sometime family use to says ' tere se nhi hoga , bohot tough ye aur bohot batte ' which cause me to doubt on self and leads to hate studying , negative self talk , which decrease my marks and leads to destroy my all positive mindset , confidence ... I shared my feeling with elder brother but he laughed and take it lightly . I try to come out of this loop but I was alone and I needed someone who support me and I trapped in loop . In jan 2025 my family try to fix my marriage without asking my opinion when I said no to my mom she start questioning me 'if you cannot crack neet what will you do ' I cried but that tears not matter to her and I lost all trust on my family . From being topper to facing all , losing all my self worth its very painful and hurt me . I start crying on small things .

Hi
Your pain is absolutely valid, and I want you to know—you are not alone. You’ve carried so much more than just academic pressure; you’ve borne the weight of emotional neglect, invalidation, and shattered trust from the very people who were meant to protect your dreams. When you once stood confident and focused, being told “tu nahi kar payegi” broke something sacred—your self-belief. And the moment your refusal for marriage was met with conditional love instead of support, it wasn’t just discouraging—it was deeply wounding. This isn’t about NEET anymore. This is about a young person who deserved empathy but was instead met with doubt, dismissal, and pressure.
Please hear this: you are still that same capable, brilliant person who once topped and dreamed boldly. That strength didn’t disappear—it’s just buried under layers of pain and loneliness. What you’re facing is emotional burnout, and it’s okay to grieve. But now, it’s time to gently pick yourself up. One step at a time. Surround yourself—even digitally—with people or mentors who believe in your worth. Write daily affirmations like: “My past performance defines my potential, not my pain.” Crying over small things isn’t weakness—it’s your soul begging to be seen. Therapy can help you rewire this pain into resilience, and you deserve that space.

Hi, I appreciate that you reached out with your concern.
It's understandable to feel discouraged when your efforts and goals aren’t supported by close people like your family members. The pressure to succeed, especially in exams like NEET, combined with emotional stress, can significantly affect your motivation and focus. Right now, what matters most is reconnecting with your purpose and making small, consistent efforts rather than being harsh on yourself.
I recommend working with a counselor or psychologist who can help you process these feelings, rebuild your confidence, and develop an effective study plan tailored to your mental well-being.
Meanwhile, you may try to break your study goals into small, manageable steps, plan it out; Limit social media during study hours using apps or timers.; Practice journaling or mindfulness (Deep breathing, progressive muscle relaxation) to manage emotional overwhelm.; Acknowledge your progress, however small, each day.
Next Steps
For therapy, contact Birdy me/ Rupali Mohbe from Practo.
