I understand your frustration and concerns. I understand that you would like to please your parents with good grades. I understand that what your parents said to you is feeding these types of emotions in you and feeding thoughts that are not at all healthy.
Suicide will NEVER be the answer. It would only cause more pain and suffering to those who love you. I suggest you speak to your parents about this matter and your PCP.
You are still young and there are lots of options out there for you to be able to succeed in life. Remember that you should always do this for yourself first. Do not give up on yourself and always believe in yourself. Contact your PCP and talk to them about this matter and seek referrals.
Peace, and a good life to you,
