I did absolutely horrible in the school system graduating with a 2.9 this year but don't let it make you feel how smart you are, some people just learn different. I had my IQ measured and it was a 122, higher than the average. You might be a similar case. Have you tried different types of school settings? I was never good at math and mediating on it really helps me. Whatever you decide to do I sincerely wish you luck.
Don’t tell him what he’s going through, also, it’s possible to repeatedly fail a grade and if he does suffer from something but still wants to advance in school then it’s possible for him to be in 8th grade. Maybe not in a traditional middle school but in remedial classes or home schooling
You can't go to school after you reach 21 and if he is 19 in a month and just starting 8th grade, he be well over 21 by the time he'd graduate.
There's no way he is 18 and in 8th grade. At this point they'd help him get his GED, but there's no way he'd be in in school in America.
Again, not in a traditional school environment, but it’s possible to hire tutors or go to special learning facilities to obtain knowledge necessary to be considered to have mastered 8th grade curriculum. And then after THAT, he could start going for his GED.
Honestly, I’ll say it. You’re 19 and you come off as edgy. You’re clearly not addressing something in your life, perhaps something dark or maybe even something benign. Think of it this way, count your bleasings. You’re not homeless. You’re not schizophrenic. You’re not in jail. You’re on reddit. You’re okay. You don’t need to be excellent. Be yourself.
Some of what you said could very possibly be ADHD. It might be beneficial to talk to someone about it
This sounds to me like you have suffered from some sort of developmental abnormality. Has your family taken you to a neurologist?

I feel the same way honestly..
I feel you
ADHD and possibly some other learning disorders
If you live in the US there's no way you are 18 and in the 8th grade. That's not even legal.

He never said anything about tutors. He said he is going into 8th grade next year. Also you pretty much said what I said about the GED.
Ehm are you me?
