I still have a lot of classes to take and I'm only taking one class at a time right now. I don't want to stop taking classes because I like it and I want to learn about things that interest me. Teachers say at the college you should study 2 hours for each class you take. Well I need more time than that like 3 hours or 4 hours because my brain takes a little more time to process things and I have a hard time staying focused because of my thoughts. My thoughts will distract me and I'll have to try to stay focused. So it just feels like too much for me if I to try to take more than one class and have a part time job at the same time. But I'm just going to take one class and have a part time job. I was just worrying if I was making the right decision. But I'm gonna do what I want to do and do what works best for me and do what makes me feel comfortable. I had a talk with my grandma and she said to do what feels comfortable for me and not to push myself too hard. At one point I thought about taking two classes versus taking one class and having a part time job but I decided to get a part time job while taking one class because I thought that it would be better. So I think I'll just stick with that. I have also have a lot of stress because of my anger and so sometimes I need to find a way to relax. So I need to take some time out of my day sometimes to do that. My therapist is saying that my obbsessive compulsive disorder could be part of my anger because I get intrusive thoughts that make me really angry. The thoughts I have will be about people yelling at me or talking down to me and criticizing me and it just makes feel really angry. I'm on the autism spectrum and I have OCD and depression and anxiety so I feel like I should not try to take on too much at once.
