Omg yes and if I make a mistake when typing I either have to repeat it correctly (whether a letter, word, sentence, paragraph) or repeat the mistake before I correct it. For that reason it takes me forever and I get behind.

It feels amazing for people to get it! I also did a test today, I was pages off finishing. I knew that I had no time and I needed to hurry up but no matter how hard I tried I couldn’t stop. I have a problem with reading because I will read over and over. It gets really bad in exams because I re-read the questions over and over. School are great for me. They have experience with kids that can’t read so I think that because I can read they are really trying to help me as though I can’t. This is really great because they acknowledge my problem!

Yes! I had an exam this morning and it took me (no joke) 15 minutes for ONE question just to write! I kept erasing and erasing! I even cried because I wanted to stop but I couldn’t. And the fact that someone can actually understand me is sooo amazing! Nobody understands when I tell them that. They go like: Well just don’t erase! They don’t know that it is not that easy. But YOU understand me! Thank you! ❤️❤️

I’m a first year Political Science major and music minor at Oregon State University and am currently finishing up my second term (trimester system). As a PoliSci major doing a Bachelor of Arts, about all of the work I do is writing, and if it isn’t its a group project (which also is probably mostly writing), reading, or multiple choice. But my main point is that when I sit down to start writing I think “Am I doing this right? Is this how the professor wants this done?” In a nutshell this is how it goes but I essentially sit there for hours and think like that and more. I failed a class the first term because of this and it shouldn’t have even been that bad. There were 2 writing assignments per week, one of them is writing about what you find on this website or smth along those lines. The other was write about this news article. This sucked because I was thinking “How do I re summarize something that’s already been summarized?” Both of these had to be between 3-500 words long, EASY. I failed this class and almost another one because of thoughts like this the first term and I went into academic warning Now during the second term I’m currently failing my history class because of thinking like this. It was 2 assignments at the beginning of the term that were notes on a book, and a discussion on a movie. 200 points combined. The midterm I didn’t do too bad, but it was messy and under the word count, but the professor liked it and I got 78% so I’m not that upset about it. The only time I really don’t have these thoughts is when I’m writing about myself (like this) or when writing music. I think it’s because of a more personal attachment and I can criticize myself on it when working on it. But anyways, has anyone else experienced something like this? I should say it definitely goes more in depth than this for me, this is just what’s happened most recently.

I’m so stressed, my mind is always telling me to recheck my messages that I sent because what if I said something racist, inappropriate or mean to the person I was messaging. Or what if I post something inappropriate or rude, the only way I can somewhat cope is by logging out of my socials every night. But even that is a long progress. Like I have to make sure to read every message I sent and that it’s safe for me to leave it for the night. And if it doesn’t feel right I have to log back in over and over until it looks and feels good to me. I’m so exhausted lol:,)

Does anyone else read books, texts, emails or any form of text over and over or start again because a word wasn’t “right” if you don’t something bad will happen?
