OCD affect on Work/School

Same here. This is some stuff that’s helped me.

I find it really important to be upfront with your professors about your mental health and ask for extensions if you need them. I am never very specific but I end the email with “I am able to provide proof of diagnoses and treatment if necessary.”

For getting the work done, being around other people working is my go to. I find it less scary to start because hey look! all these other people have started! and they’re just people like me!

Quarantine through a big wrench in this system and I had to get an extension for a few classes. I have began working again by watching people livestream their studies on youtube (“study with me for...”)

You’re not alone! All us neurosis riddles hos are gone get this shit done!!! Proud of you!
