my thoughts (i've never made a thread before so i'd appreciate any advice)

this is just a place where you can share whatever's going on inside your head. it doesn't have to be specific to anything- just a safe space to release emotions in a healthy way and talk to others if you want to.

so i'm in summer school taking my least favorite subject (history) so that i don't have to take it during the school year and i can focus on science (my passions are astrophysics and chemistry). i thought this would be an easy class for me since my school's history curriculum is pretty relaxed, especially considering how it handles other subjects, but i forgot to factor in my adhd and the fact that my psychiatrist is trying to wean me off of my sleeping meds (i have bad insomnia). so now i'm behind on work and the class is moving faster than i can. i had a 100% in the class, but once i started to get behind, the missing assignments sunk my grade down to a c. i've never gotten a c in a class before so i'm really freaked out right now. i have a lot of work to do and i have time to do it today but my anxiety is really bad so i've been procrastinating for the past 3 hours or so. my mom found out and got really pissed at me for procrastinating on my work and instead of explaining my anxiety to her i pulled an attitude and made her upset. now i don't know what to do, and i feel mortified by the thought of telling her i was too embarrassed to admit that i was anxious about the work. i don't know what to do; how do i approach her? what do i say? i know this is pretty minor but it's causing a lot of stress. that's pretty much it.
