Don't keep telling yourself i can't do this I can't do that try to keep calm and think it through even if it feels like you can't do it try and do a bit more at a time it and think to yourself if you really can't do it and if you think you can't, just do it and see the results afterwards

Get into apprenticeship or just work.
Going into an apprenticeship, then you will be able to study while you work.

Well, it depends. My parents provide me with almost everything I need and want, so I don't currently need money and can focus entirely on my studies. However, some teens want to be financially independent and take up part time jobs. In my opinion, it's better to focus on studies right now so that you can earn more in the future and have a better reward to effort ratio

It would be very beneficial, as you could get way more money than your allowance. But you should also consider the fact that it'll reduce your time for studying, which can impact your grades if you need time to study.

It's good experience to have a part time job if you can manage your time well.

Enjoy school while it lasts! You won’t have a choice, but to work until you die one day just to survive. It may seem fun now but it’s not fun if you’re just going to be working at some local store in your hometown that doesn’t care about your well being, benefit your future, and tricks you into staying there during your entire youthful young adult years.
Learn skills that will help you be financially stable in the future and learn trades right now. Volunteer and appreciate for things that will look good on your resume one day. Slowww it down & don’t adult until you absolutely have to OP.
