1. Make a list of everything you need to do and or have been stressing over
2. Cross off the easy ones and start with the hard ones
3. When finished with the hard tasks, move on to the easier ones
4. When done with that double check your work
5. Have a second pair of eyes look over it, your parents, friend, boss, siblings, pets (not pets, they give terrible advice!), or anybody really...
6. After all those steps, treat yourself to a nice warm cup of coffee, a TV show you’ve been wanting to see, a good book, or just take a nice long nap, or a yummy snack
7. Most importantly, DO NOT LOSE YOUR WORK! That would be a bummer if you had to do it all over again
So of course you know about quarantine and stuff. And how school is really hard. And, well, I haven’t gotten a solid 8 hours of sleep (I need 10) for about two months. My mom makes me get up at 7:45 am no matter how late I stayed up working on the stuff that she told me to work on. I’m in 8th grade but 10th grade math, and this is the first time I have no idea what the teacher is talking about (we’re learning trig). I have a B in it right now, which is astonishing to say the least, but my mom keeps pressuring me to get an A. It’s the last day of the trimester to turn work in, and I’m currently failing social studies, but she won’t stop telling me to do my math instead. I got five hours of sleep last night and I’ve been working my butt off all day, and I had to take a few hour long break, but my mom kept telling me to get an A in math or I’ll hate her when I’m thirty because I couldn’t get into my dream college. I don’t even have a dream college. She says that I won’t fail social studies because I have adhd so she can get the teacher to excuse my missing work, but I am a functional human being. I don’t want special treatment, and she’s acting like it’s normal to get all your missing work excused just because you have trouble managing your attention. I’m going to end this right now so I can finish the big project I’ve been working on for hours, but I’ll come back if anyone responds.
I hope you have a great day!
Also I love your name, Dr. SQUID
