Default I'm Horrible at Mathematics

I have absolutely no idea at all and I feel as if I am an utter failure when it comes to mathematics. I can't seem to grasp the concept of math in general which frustrates me to absolutely no end which makes me feel upset and angry at myself for not having the ability to understand such materials. I've tried numerous times to be able to gain the knowledge I "need" in math but I can't seem to be able to completely understand the materials that I need in high school and evidently college.

The complications in math for me is simply unbearable to a certain point which makes me feel that I won't be able to accomplish any concept pertaining to math which excludes me from furthering into additional math concepts. Supposedly, it is one the most vital class in school in general but I don't see the point of it if I won't be majoring in math or dealing with such concepts in the future in my life. If it will not be any use to me, wouldn't it be utterly futile if I were to continue? The only thing that is making me want to continue is because it is one of the school's requirement. I can't just cease the learning of math in my education because my lack of knowledge and skills; I have to continue and strive to do well in math. Regardless of my motivation and dedication, it makes absolutely no sense at all to continue learning a topic that I will continue to loathe. I say that I hate the topic but I know that life deals with math. Math is the one of the essence that assist us in advancing technology, understanding materials, and grasping such knowledge that we weren't able to understand in the past. Nonetheless, I don't want to be part of it and if I decide to focus my studies on others, I honestly believe that I would be better off.

Despite the lack of skills that I have been bestowed with, I try to do better. I work hard and I try and do my best. I study and try to do the materials that I need for class. Nope. That will not cut; something in my brain is obstructing me from learning such a topic. The hindrance that is disabling me from further learning in math doesn't seem to cease. The incessant thoughts of myself accomplishing math is endless, yet it never becomes reality. Reality matters and often times, imagination and continue dedication would be deficient.

What do you suggest I do concerning this? Do I continue learning because it's something I must force myself to do despite the fact that I don't want to? Am I supposed to be inclined to learn math which won't contribute to much in my future? Will such knowledge benefit me in a way that would help me? If so, enlighten me in what I could do.

I have yet to accomplish much in math and it is so troubling. I am starting to think that my teacher isn't explaining it thoroughly to me. For some problems, she just tells us to finish it on our own assuming that we're able to do it. If I know what the answer it, I can go through the problem again and see what I should do for some problems.

complaining about math isn't gonna help. You need to take the book and spend some time to read about it. I used to complain in the 6th grade about how hard it was for me and then i decided if the teachers weren't gonna help me, then i'd do it myself. So i took up my math book and the first time, i'll tell you, it took me about 2 hours to just understand one lesson and i kept doing it for the whole week. The lessons were easier, got better grades (it was really really slow) and I finally understood math. Shit, i love that stuff now and I am doing Calc as a junior now. Kinda annoying cause i'm in a room full of Asians and I'm the only man of my race, but the math is better. gotta love math!

Embrace your failures and look towards the future. Let's face it, if your good at math, you will be born with the talent. And since you weren't born with the awesome gift of solving problems, just suck it up and deal with it. You suck at math and that is your destiny. LOL!
