If you are having trouble getting your school work done due to procasination and high levels of anxiety than you can try breaking down the assignments you do each night and maximum time that you have worked on it and whichever you don't get done today you can resume the next day.

School can be very stressful, especially when there are lots of assignments due around the same time. I find it helpful to make a to due list of everything that needs to be done. I include really big tasks as well as ones that are easy to complete. I then alternate between completing big and small/hard and easy tasks. That way I get the satisfaction of completing big assignments but also can feel like I'm completing lots of stuff when I do a bunch of easier things. Crossing stuff off the list is a visual representation of everything I have done and motivates me to do more. Having that list helps me feel in control of what I have to do.

If you make use of online services, try using paper books, it's less distracting and lets you focus more.

there are many time management techniques that tend to help people. making a to do list can make things easier to remember, and color coding the items can make the task of prioritization much more manageable. another method that often helps people is to break down each task into smaller tasks. the components are often less overwhelming than the whole, and reducing anxiety often wards of procrastination tendencies.

Make sure that after you do work you reward yourself even if it something small so you have motivation to do the work and know something good will come out of it.

try to sit down with someone and do the work together. You can also make restrictions and get your parents on board with it like you can have it so that you cant go out with friends until you have it all done just little things like that and remember to breath and take it one assignment at a time.

Sometimes the anxiety can come from thinking we won't succeed at the task at hand. Instead of taking a back seat, take a deep breath and view what is needed to complete the task and set a good timeline for completion once the task is assigned.

Set out a really good timetable, with lots of breaks factored in to do exercise/hobbies you love etc. Start with short periods of time and then extend them out as you get used to it. Try something like the forest app so you can't be distracted by your phone!
