Why do I feel this way?Maybe it's all psychological... I'm an 18-year-old high school student and i'm struggling to graduate because of this. Ever since I got my acceptance letter to university i've changed. I stopped doing everything. I feel as if everything i've ever worked for up until this point was for that letter, but I know that that's not how it works. I need to keep trying so I can safeguard my acceptance.
I always feel tired no matter what. Even if I get a full night's sleep I feel as if i'm going to pass out in the hallway. One time I kind of did. My vision turned blotchy and white and I stumbled into a trashcan. When i'm not tired I feel queasy. As if somebody is ripping through my intestines with a bayonette (sorry for the description... that's just how I imagine it). Then I have to excuse myself from class.
When neither of these things are happening, I simply don't do anything. I actually plan ahead by bringing Sudoku puzzles or anything to keep my mind off my school work. Then I fall behind and get anxious about graduation. I'm currently failing my AP statistics class which I simply don't care about since it's not required for me to graduate. Other than that, I didn't turn in my English IV research paper, or my Government project, or my stock market project for Economics.
When I go home I do nothing but play videogames and waste more time. My parents don't even notice my recent change.
I didn't used to be like this. I was a great student. I competed nationally in JROTC, studied very hard, and kept a tidy bedroom. I guess the number one presumption will be "senioritus", but if it is then I have the worst case in history.
I have gone as far as to skip my classes just so I can get in-school-suspension where i'll be so bored that i'll WANT to do my work. Isn't that pathetic?
I have no energy and have stopped caring about how I look. When my friends are feeling down I no longer want to be their pillar. When in the face of drama or hardship I do nothing but avoid.

You've done everything to reach your one goal and now that you have accomplished it, you feel like you have no purpose. Try making yourself another goal and things should look up from there. Try setting a couple.

Sounds like depression, although it could be something else. Have you spoken to a counsellor and/or a doctor about this?

TL:DR
You are a teenager. Get Laid, it helps endorphine levels
but main point, get yourself a blood test, I was EXACTLY the same but then I discovered I had an underactive thyroid. May also be anemic, try taking some vitamin pills, and drink LOTS of Water always. Exercise.
I did all of these, and now I take a tiny pill in the moring, and I am both physical and mental peak.

Sorry could not give you a decent answer. for a start go to your doctor to get an examination. Feeling tired is not a common thing, it may have some medical thing with it. get it sorted then we can start thinking about the mental issues.
