Question

What should I do if I get frustrated when I don't understand homework? Some people have said that I'm stupid and I feel that this means they are right. Also, how can I deal with not having anyone around to support me?

It was smart to ask for help, and that attitude shows how much you care about your own development. I encourage you to see yourself as someone who is struggling, not stupid. I, too, struggled with various subjects when I was a student. If you have access to a teacher or a student who excels at this subject, why not ask them to spend some time helping you understand the assignments? Even if you do not have people physically around you, you can find support through various online communities. And if you cannot find an online community that feels like a perfect fit, you can still join it to learn from other people. Life is often like that, not perfect but a work in progress.
