To detach my heart from unhealthy attachment and regain my focus

Assalamu Alaikum, Sheikh.I used to be a very good student and always made my family proud with my results.I always felt mentally exhausted, lonely, and empty inside even being around family, even though my parents are supportive. On my way last year I met a foreign friend online who showed me kindness and attention. Because I was emotionally vulnerable, I became deeply attached to that friendship.Since then, I've struggled to focus on my studies and daily life. Subjects like physics, chemistry, and mathematics, which were once my strongest, now feel overwhelming. My grades have dropped, and I'm afraid of disappointing my parents. Sometimes I hear comments that make me feel like they no longer believe in me, and it breaks my heart.Maybe my words are not good enough to express what im feeling inside but it literally breaking,day by day i just feel like to giving up over everything  Why has this happened to me? Is this a test from Allah, a warning, or the result of my own mistakes? How can I detach my heart from this unhealthy emotional attachment, regain my focus, and become close to Allah again? Please make dua for me.
