I'm in seventh grade and am in a early Algebra program. I am dyslexic, through I found my way in 2nd and 3rd grade. I haven't had a single problem since. I aced my last year math taks and they put me in Algebra, with a few other seventh graders but mostly eighth. I started out okay, but it's been a train too many to just be where I'm at. I'm barely passing and I can't focus on the problems. My head starts to hurt a lot. I've noticed in the past week or two that reading has been giving me a slight problem as well. My friends hardly try and sail right through it, but I feel like I'm alone in a storm. I go to my teacher and he helps a lot after school but I keep getting pushed back with every new part. It's frustrating and quite frankly, I feel a little angry. I try hard as I can and I am barely passing. I feel like at any given moment in Algebra I'm going to break down, and I think I possibly have an emotional disorder (both my mother and grandmother are emotionally unstable when a crisis or off meds) and I'm rather sick of feeling exasperated with myself and being down in the dumps. I'm sorry for ranting but could someone please help?
