I don't know if i need anything specifically, just some random tips would do. But basically I'm struggling because i see no point in school since i don't really learn anything there and end up teaching myself anyway. I am considering homeschooling because i most likely have social anxiety and am literally terrified of being at school and sitting through lessons. I barely sleep because of the amount of work, plus i have low blood pressure which is why I'm prone to frequent headaches. Actually doing school work feels stupid because there is nothing I'll personally get out of it most of the time. My school unfortunately prioritizes completed work instead of knowledge. The teachers seem to not know anything about how to work with children and just yell/make us feel worthless in a different way. This is my last year of school and i have exams at the end of it, i am overwhelmed by them because idk how to prepare for them since the online classes i take to get ready for them make me happy (the teachers are great and provide adequate knowledge) but it hurts doing them because i dont want things that make me happy to twist up with the concept of school, plus it's hard to complete them because school gets in the way. I can't tell whether or not i have executive disfunction too. My school is considered to be the best in town but it is useless and is the main reason of my mental suffering. It's 6:11 am right now and i haven't slept because i have a lot on my mind. I didn't expect this to be such a rant lmao, but it feels nice to get it all out.

@IXBellaXI I didn't go to school yesterday because i didn't feel great the day before that, therefore didn't do my homework. It is literally safer to skip school if you don't have you homework done instead of going there, even though my class supervisor called my mom and told her a bunch of nonsense, including for me to pick up my documents from the school and leave if there is a problem. They are all insane.

@IXBellaXI You've already figured out that traditional school is sort of a scam... since you've just got this last year to go, maybe think about what a successful year might look like at the end? Everyone fixates on short-term scores and grades, but you've already got your eye on what you value beyond that (through enjoying your online studies and not wanting school to drag that down).

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! :)

pls reply if you have help
i am a freshman in college and i have always struggled with depression, anxiety, and OCD. i have never received help for my OCD despite being medicated for my other two issues. i have noticed that what most of my panic stems from is my OCD and more specifically my OCD around school. i haven’t been able to get myself up for class for multiple days and im starting to panic about everything im missing and think about every little thing i have to fix. i am so behind that it makes me want to panic and i feel like i cant fix this. i just want my mind to feel normal but it feels like my whole world is falling apart all because i am feeling stuck in school. please help me i just want to feel okay but i dont know how to. i have tried doing all the assignments i can do to catch up but it isn’t enough i still feel so panicked

help :(
so I feel like I’m finally having an academic comeback after years of failing & I’m currently looking at pinterest for that motivation. there are videos that are helpful tools for college students like websites that read chapter books and summarize/create notes & it seems pretty cool. but I somehow deny using those tools bc it feels like I’m cheating. my mind is like, “no, you will study the TRADITIONAL way (which idek what it rlly is)” I don’t know why my brain is doing this to me. I feel like these apps could be beneficial to my learning. what’s ironic is that I literally googled all my assignment answers for one class at the last minute to get some grades in. this is a retake class but because I was so behind on everything, I just looked up the answers. so that really does count as cheating. like bruh 😭 I did it to save myself from a bad class grade. I’m definitely going to study the rest of this semester. I have officially began taking notes and actually doing schoolwork. someone help me!!! these videos look like great resources but my mind is telling me otherwise. another thing is that I’m still lost on what to major in. I keep changing career choices and my head’s gonna explode. there are so many things I wanna say but I don’t want the post to be long. I just want to get good grades and understand the material!!! someone help me >n<
