Stop Fucking yourself... LoL..
But on a serious note dude. Get a further maths text and matrix or calculus. Apply for a tutor and by your efforts you've turned a Mathematician..
God help you.

Simple Tips to Alleviate Math Anxiety
==>Understand the Cause of the Anxiety
Math anxiety is caused by
having a negative experience
associated with math at some
point―for many of us, more
than one. Everyone is capable
of understanding math, but all it takes is a single negative
association to wreck that
belief. If you suffer from
math anxiety, it's not because
you 'just don't have that kind
of brain', it's because, at some point, someone or something
shattered your confidence. It
actually becomes a self-
fulfilling prophecy. If you
think that you're bad at math, you will be bad at math. But the reverse is also true―if you work to restore your confidence, you'll have the ability to understand as much
math as you need to.

==>Start With the Basics
One of the biggest issues
behind math anxiety is a lack of mastery over the
fundamental principles. If your anxiety-inducing event happened as a young child, it is bound to stay with you in
your adult years as well. To get over it, brush up. Check out books from www.heroslodge.com or study online. Don't necessarily take a course―the idea is to make the situation low-
pressure, so you can fail
without consequence. Go all the way back to the
beginning―this means adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing. Doing exercises you know you can do without a struggle will build up your
confidence, and as you
progress through the levels, you'll be rebuilding the foundation that once
crumbled.

==>Don't Give up So Easily
If you're taking a math class, failing does indeed have consequences, so it's important to get it right. Begin by preparing for the class in advance―the moment you register, start brushing up on the basics and whatever
concepts give you trouble. If you can get the instructor's
syllabus ahead of time, start looking over the material covered in class, so you don't feel blindsided when it's
covered. Ask questions during class. It's not a stupid question―if you need to ask it, it's guaranteed that there are a dozen other students in class who also don't understand, but are afraid to
ask. Take excellent notes and read them after class. Do all the required homework and recommended exercises at the recommended times. If you
still need help, get a tutor or a
study buddy from class.
The ability to excel at math is not inborn, and you absolutely can learn to feel comfortable with math through sheer hard work and
determination. So, try hard, start early, and give yourself permission to fail. You are worth more than your calculus grade, but proving to yourself that you can do it is
incredibly empowering.

Mathematics happen to be my most dreaded subject back then in secondary school. Until I break my self from it's shackle. I started by buying materials and text books, then solving one topic every week, and asking questions and more questions..


I end up studying Mathematics Education in the higher institution and now prepping myself for Msc.

Which aspect of Math do you have problem in? Is it 1+3, 1-2--Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication & Division, Measuration, Calculus etc?

Before one can proffer a lasting solution to your pro, one needs to know your actual/specific problem.


Let's know your pro, brother!

Mathematics is a very sweet subject only if you believe. First of all, remove all the fear you have for mathematics, even if you fail, always have that mindset that it is simple. Secondly. When the foundation of a building is not strong, the building will collapse. Mathematics is just like that if you dont have a good foundation, you might find it difficult along the line. The mathematics you solved in Nursey and primary school are the foundation for you to pass the secondary or tertiary mathematics, so you need to go back to the foundation.This might sound funny, but try it. Go and get all the Mathematics textbook for Primary one to Primary Six. I am serious. Study them one after the other, solve all the exercise even if they look simple. After that get JSS1 maths textbook and also continue from there. Try different textbooks too. There are different methods of teaching mathematics which will still land you at the final answer, find the method that fits you from the different textbook. If you can be humble enough to do this, You will never fail mathematics in your life again. Lastly, PRACTICE. If you leave mathematics for 2 days it will leave you for 4 days. Solving exercise gives you opportunity to answer questions in differnt ways and in many pattern. I teach mathematics and this have worked for my students that find mathematics difficult. Thanks
