Down in the dumps

I thought I was finally doing well in my school, AP is hard as it gets and I improved a lot but I have test anxiety. When we took the AP exam in May I felt so good about it and today I got my results online. I got a 2. I feel so ashamed in myself. I'm really hard on myself and I just don't know how to take this. I just really don't feel like doing a lot more today... I just kind of want to sleep.

I know how you feel - I've been in a similar situation before. Tbh as silly as it might sound, you need to mope about it. Yes, you need to over think about it and allow yourself to feel crappy ad down in the dumps. But don't let that go on forever - pick yourself up after that and use it to improve and learn. I always go by the motto "View it as an opportunity, not an obstacle". After revising my mistakes I was able to improve as a result :)
