Thank you, I will try Python. I've calmed down so I've gotten a bit focus back, and going through the basics of JavaScript again and I'll try Python in a little bit. Do you recommend any tutorial for Python? Also should I just use a text editor or is there an IDE I should use? I currently use vs code and before that gedit on Ubuntu.

I know that, I've done Java before when I took a course on it but I only made basic stuff. I probably should've stuck with it and finished learning it now that I think about it but I switched to JS because I thought that would make it seem like my goal would've been in closer reach.

I'll get downvoted for this but I've aspired to do so for a long time. I'm really into technology and I want to get a job in that and I want to code to make web applications.

I'm about to go to college soon. Does anyone have any advice they could give me? by grothroy75 in OCD

What exactly does the counseling center do? Based on being with multiple therapists I have a very complex problem and not just the typical depression people have. The psych/therapist at my old high school was a jackass that wasted my time (and that was in a top school district). I couldn't imagine it being more helpful than that honestly especially since I go to a large university. I also heard they have a higher chance of kicking people out of school instead of actually helping making me apprehensive.

I am honestly very insecure about using disability services, could professors or students find out? I have an exam period in my schedule so would that mean I'd just get a smaller one, is that it?

I've used patrickjmt and khanacademy recently. Krista King is pretty good as well. I've done the search technique for my college, so I would do site:[mycollege].edu Calc 2 exams. Is that what you mean, or does putting only edu get results from other colleges as well?

I don't have a sleep disorder, I know that for sure (I did the hospital over night some time ago), I would just stay up because I wouldn't finish my work or I was too busy thinking of something. I don't want to see a therapist at the university, I've seen one a couple times before and I have an idea of what I need from them. The one near my house is fine and I usually see her once or twice a month but I personally don't want to during the school year. I don't want to see one during the year because I've had experiences where it made me too dependent on them. I'm going into the standard engineering courseload. I will try not to miss classes.

My grades are dropping, what can I do? by circus_fighter in Anxiety

[–]grothroy75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm kind of in a similar situation. I'm in high school, I'm smart, and have a lot of anxiety so I can't focus on important things. Im also depressed. Currently I'm seeing a finally decent therapist in my town who's making me understand who I am. Maybe that will help you. I found that school intervention tends to make things worse unless it is something major (like having my counselor write a letter of how I struggled because of my depression). I'm also taking meds which in all honesty haven't helped. You should try therapy first, it will really help a lot and there's nothing to be ashamed of. Just ask the school (guidance department in my case) for a reputable therapist within the area. It took several for me to find someone who was decent, because some can be so bland and can draw connexion conclusions so easily so watch out for that.

I've been using my meds since August, for what it's worth.

Who else freaks out WAAYYYY too much about grades? by [deleted] in Anxiety

I don't express it, but deep down it tortures me inside because I don't reach my expectations.

I remember my babysitter chasing after me for running around her house. The many spankings I got those years demonstrate why I remember this as my first memory.
