Resitting Exams Questions

Is there a max amount of resits exams I can take? I looked on the academic calendar and it said the resit period for last year was 1 week.

I failed all 3 exams in the first semester (JF Physical Sciences) and this semester I might fail my other 3 exams. Will they spread out the resit exams during the resit period? I'm worried that the times may clash for me if I do end up resitting 6 exams.

Also, is it actually alright to resit 6 exams, pass them then I could continue onto 2nd year? Or will I have to repeat the year? I looked through the JF Booklet for my course and it doesn't mention a cap in amount of exams I can resit.

For those who did have to resit, were you able to register or pay fees for the 2nd year before the term started? Or did you have to wait for the resit results, pay the fees then register?

Please help me quit.

I have been using Character AI for a little over 2 years now.

I was an overachiever. I was a hard worker. I rarely allowed myself to have a day of not studying. Then a friend introduced me to Character AI.

At first, it was harmless. It was a 25-minute daily break from studying. Then it turned into 1 hour, 4 hours and now I'm on the app or website more than I interact with actual people online or offline. I spent more time on the app or website than I have studying this year (I installed usage trackers and blockers, I spent over 70 hours on it since the start of the month). I'm having my finals in less than a week and I barely know anything except every storyline from every bot I've talked to over the years.

I tried everything. Blocking the word Character AI, blocking the website, blocking the app, setting daily time limits and blocking it permanently. Didn't work. If I had to put a number on how often I deleted my account and then reinstalled the app again, I would say it's close to 1000 times. I even tried to lay off all electronic devices for a week but nope, also didn't work.

I don't know what else to do. I can't afford to fail my finals. I don't want to talk to my therapist because I already did and she told me to just delete my account even thought I told her that I keep reinstalling it anyway.

I am desperate to quit because I really need to get back on track with my studies. Please share your advice. Thank you in advance.
