I'm 18 and about to take the most important exam of my life which will probably decide what I'll become when I grow up. I have exactly 23 days. There are a total of 7 subjects and they each have 2 papers and the whole course is supposed to take me 2 years to finish. I slacked around for most of the 2 years and only just realized that I was fucked a couple of weeks ago. In the last 2 years I've started smoking a lot, fucked up my sleeping cycle, fucked up my relation with my parents and got used to a pretty disgusting lifestyle. I've also been smoking pot very frequently for the last month or so. After I realized how fucked I was, I started having panic attacks and I haven't been able to study even the least bit. All I can think about is running away from all this. I'm too coward to even commit suicide. I keep going back to previous lifestyle everytime I have one of these meltdowns because that seems like the only thing that stops it. IDK what to do and I'm very close to falling apart and just doing something very stupid. I NEED HELP. I ONLY HAVE ONE SHOT AT THIS EXAM AND IF I FUCK IT UP I'LL BE STUCK BEING A FUCKING FAILURE FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE AND I DON'T KNOW IF I'M BRAVE ENOUGH TO HANDLE THAT

why do you only have one shot at this exam?

Because my country has a fucked education system where I'm only allowed to take the exam once and the gpa is really important if I want to get into a college

I strongly recommend you focus on the subjects that you are interested in on said course. and revise hard for it, 18 - 20 hour days hard. giving yourself a proper 8 hours rest over weekends.
Revise, look up online content and videos relating to said subjects too. The internet is a house of knowledge, you just need to look for it.
Granted I have never been in your position but given your time fame, I would recommend making the best out of it by focusing on the stuff your good at and interested in.
Good Luck <3
