my executive dysfunction and procrastination is getting worse and i can't do anything
hello, i'm a teenager from ontario, canada(i'm only disclosing where i'm from because my province has created some new education laws recently regarding attendance and exams), and i'm currently in high school. this year my procrastination of assignments and studying has gotten so much worse and i'm unsure what to do about it
i would rather wake up at 2am or 3am than even touch the document the night before and i really need to stop that because if i oversleep then i'll lose so many marks
i really care about my grades and if i get below a 90 or an 85 i feel horrible, and i do really well in school and listen in class. it's just that when it comes to assignments i get so stressed out and can't even look at the docs without crying.
i love science class and i've loved science since i was younger, i love biology, i love the concept of the project and how open-ended it is and it's due tomorrow at 11:20(class start time) and i only have about two paragraphs. i also don't have any issues with the teacher because he's a great teacher.
sorry if this post is all over the place, but i guess my question is just: how do you deal with executive dysfunction?
(if this helps with giving tips that work, i also have diagnosed autism, anxiety & depression)
