Is there a teacher you like a lot and trust? Talk to him or her about this. The teacher will know how you can be tested and how you can get help if there is a learning problem--and even if there isn't a definite problem. Assigning a tutor to you might be a big help.

Don't be scared. You are smart to tackle this and to do something about it while you are young. You have my best wishes, and please report back once you find out something.
