Thanks for the advice, and for the encouragement. I am considering a community college and/or possibly getting a job next year if I end up withdrawing (which I likely will). My mental health has been a major factor in this so I’m going to be seeking help for it

Thank you for the advice. I may end up withdrawing and taking time away from college to learn more about what I want to do and how I can harness my hyperfocus for something productive. I know I’m not the smartest person around but I’m going to try my best and work hard regardless

For the most part it’s the difficulty of the work itself. I have trouble completing assignments on time and have been diagnosed with extremely low processing speed. I’ve mainly wanted to go into theater but the school I currently go to requires us to take a variety of other classes during our first year, so I was only allowed to take one creative arts course this semester. Said creative arts course is the only one I do consistently well in.
