I'm a college student that just got out of inpatient last week. I missed two weeks of classes. I really wish I hadn't gone to the hospital because I'm having such a hard time getting caught up. I have zero motivation and with the meds I feel very sluggish (but kinda need that right now).
I have a mental list of things I need to do (go to library, sign up for tutoring, etc) but I just can't leave my room. I go to a really small school with zero disability help to make things "better"
advice?

Can you talk to your professors about giving you some leeway due to a medical emergency? They may extend deadlines for you or something like that.

That might work for my writing class, but I really need to get caught up as quickly as possible for math and physics before I keep slipping further and further behind.

Does your school offer free tutoring? I found that simply having a scheduled meeting with someone else really helps. I also do the reward thing. I'll allow myself to do something I love (currently binge watching Netflix) after I do a certain amount of work.

At my university, students can elect to get a medically-excused incomplete that enables them to finish a semester on their own time. That may not be obviously offered at your university, but you should look into things along that line.

Before I knew I was BP, when I was your age, I used to push myself to try to keep up with everyone else even when things happened that got in the way because I assumed that was my only option (almost 10-15 yrs ago now). There is increasing awareness of mental health interfering with academics at basically all universities. As faculty, we discuss it frequently (I'm not out so always feel awkward about these discussions). I believe that if you speak to student services, mental health, even if those people are quite few at a small school, they will offer you good options. Chances are your math and physics professors are not aware of these policies so you should see whoever you can first who acts as a student liaison to have them help negotiate with you what can be done about your classes.

Hope that helps.

Do you have a counselor, or some type of academic advisor? Maybe he/she can help...?
