Dear Lybrate user Negative experiences effects us a lot. They are memories with emotions and they interfere in our day to day life. Your self confidence has been decreased. With this mindset and mental state you will not be able to give your best in any exam. I recommend you to try therapy from which your past failures and negative experiences will not interfere in your studies. Your self esteem and self confidence will increase. Your concentration will also increase. The associations of your past experiences will be broken so that you will become more motivated more enthusiastic more determined more energetic. You will give your best in the exams. For more information and also a free consultation contact me in private. Good luck.

Dear Lybrate User, It looks like due to your past failure in exams, all the other exams feel like big challenges. This seems to be stressing you out and depressing you. Here's one way you can deal with negative thinking: - Since writing your exam feels like such a challenge, break it down into smaller tasks that are easily achievable. For example, being able to recall the answers for one chapter. Celebrate even your small achievements. This will help increase your confidence in your abilities to pass the exam, which should reduce negative thinking. Please consult privately for further advice. Good Luck.
