The only thing I remember is that the て form may mean "and" but and in this
context have no sense.

Which use of the て形 is used in this picture?
In this context, it means something along the lines of "so difficult". So the
first part of the sentence reads,

> My studies for school are so difficult, I'm frustrated.

I'll leave for you to figure out which verb to use.

The use of て is not limited to mean 'and'.  
In this case it's used to indicate the _**reason**_ of the conclusion of the
predicate.

> **2** 原因・理由を表す。…ので。…ために。「頭が痛くて寝ていた」（[デジタル大辞泉 | て |
> **１-2**](https://dictionary.goo.ne.jp/jn/148945/meaning/m1u/%E3%81%A6/)）
