I Upgraded my MBP (2012), from Mavericks to Yosemite and it slowed my computer down to the point where it became unusable. I repaired the permissions, and even reinstalled Yosemite but it didn't help. My MBP is crawling and I'm hoping someone can walk me through a solution. Need help.

You can't possibly be having the same problem when you aren't running the same OS X and are posting in the wrong forum.
Can you help me with my slow Mac?

Since installing Yosemite, system runs extremely slow. Finder takes forever to load a new window. Mail causes memory leaks/crashes/freezes. Force quit via CMD OPTN ESC will not work. Safari is slow and causes memory leaks. Nothing works fluidly or smoothly anymore. Feels like me machine is now crippled.

if it is a clue, I have no idea at all how to interpret it? Don't know what that means? Does anyone else?
Start by posting your own question in the appropriate forum:
You aren't using a MacBook Pro, and if it's a hardware test that failed you will need assistance specific to your model Mac.

As others have said, start your own thread. The first step to interpreting the error is to click the "[Details]" link.
Problem description:
Yosemite slowed my computer MB Pro mid 2012, lags all the time, with just Safari open it took me 40 minutes to come here and write this... Boyfriends computer works fine. Help me please, I have to work using this machine and I don't have the funds nor the time to take it someplace where they could do something. Could you offer some insight on what to do by myself? I'm not a nerdy girl so please explain as simply as you can. Thanks a bunch!

Back up your Mac immediately since its hard disk has failed and the information it contains may become permanently irretrievable at any time. To learn how to do that read Mac Basics: Time Machine backs up your Mac.
You can replace your Mac's hard disk on your own or have Apple do it: Genius Bar Reservations
Hi John, making conclusions from an etrecheck list ?????
Lex
John may be right. Backups are always necessary, do that.
But the remark about disk failures is one thing and all the other red remarks about software unable to run because of memory pressure is something else: you are unencrypting which takes a LOT of resources and stops almost all other processes. This may take a while and in the meantime all store downloads are redownloaded/checked.
As soon as the unencrypting has finished, start a new thread with a new etrecheck list.
post the link here.
Lex
Unencrypting as in FileVault? My boyfriend checked it, it said that everything is encrypted and that the encryption is working? What is it unencrypting, sorry for being a dummy. :/ Now the computer works okay-ish but sometimes it just feels like crashing.
Yes encrypting and unencrypting as in file vault.
unencrypt before you do the backups.
Lex
OK. This thread is officially way too long and needs to stop. People are getting confused over who is reporting what.
Anyone who has an EtreCheck report that says something like this:
APPLE HDD HTS545050A7E362 disk0 : (500,11 GB)
EFI (disk0s1) <not mounted> : 210 MB
Recovery HD (disk0s3) <not mounted> [Recovery]: 650 MB
Macintosh HD (disk1) / : 498.88 GB (428.21 GB free) - 109 errors
Needs to backup their machine and get a new hard drive.
Anyone else needs to start their own threads or else risk getting your problem confused with 220 others. There will be plenty of time to diagnose all other Yosemite slowness problems while you files aren't being lost for all time.
Hi John, not always, see the other thread.
Yosemite made my MacBook Pro so slow. Need help.
