I wish i didn't start it

I am currently labeled as the best student of my batch, many club moderators are asking me to join them, teachers want to sign me up on different competitions, both inside and outside school, and most students know me both by name and face. But the thing is, I don't actually think that I'm 'that' smart. I hate all the attention. I was used to being the invisible kid until senior. I mean, I was really enjoying my current school until people started recognizing me and even comparing to other students, above or below me. They started having these expectations that only made me feel like a prisoner. There are so many things that are happening and my mental state, being unstable for 4 years now, can't hold them. I'm feeling like shit and I feel myself slipping back to depression and anxiety. I can't afford professional help either so i'm really struggling with myself.

Help us keep this site organized and clean. Thanks!

    Tell them no. Walk away. You need to look out for your best interests not theirs.

    Smart people often tend to underestimate themselves:)

    Have u thought about talking to the responsible people about that?

    • Yeah, I used to but they never listen. I actually told my teachers to stop signing me up. Thanks though :)

        No probs
        Do you have a counsellor?
        And could you just not go to whatever they signed u up or is it difficult for u?

    That sounds crappy. Also, you must have a really small school.

    • Not small. I mean, seniors share my school with college students and we all compete with each other.
