I’m not sure about you, but I’m perfectionistic by nature and tend to put a lot of pressure on getting straight A’s etc. But recently I’ve seriously had to come to terms with the fact that school isn’t everything. Your health is your priority. Try your hardest, but don’t be afraid to ask for help or take a break. School is a tough place to be in general, let alone while you’re battling a mental illness. I also try really hard not to compare myself to other, no one else is fighting with their sanity everyday like I have been so it’s pointless. Look after yourself. School matters but not as much as you do. Trying your best is all that matters! d a i s y

What I wish I had known is that people say that high school is the best time of your life but that is complete BS. Your life is a series of ups and downs and there are constant trade offs. The people who seem to have perfect lives now are probably struggling with something you don’t know about. Treat yourself with compassion and try your best not to make comparisons because you do not see the whole picture of their lives like you do with yours. Everyone has unique struggles and you cannot compare yourself to others who don’t have the same burdens.

Advice?
I’m having a big OCD relapse and would like to hear anyone’s tips on how to be present and healthily deal with these intrusive thoughts and the “need” to preform compulsions. Thank you!!

What can I do if I’m being bothered by something?
Good morning, I have been noticing more and more that I might have OCD. I am currently a student and this is causing me to slack a lot during school. I am a student who has a 504 plan (accommodation for my mental health) and would like to add this app on my 504 due to my school having a no phone policy. My question is, how can this app help me while in school? What are things that can happen during school that might lead me to using this app? I am new to this app and barley finding out that I might have OCD. If any clarification needs to be made on this post please let me know! :)
