On Monday, I'm starting a Grad Prep program for graduate students with a not high enough GPA to get into grad school. Here's my problem. I'm mentally disabled & get distracted very easily. Also, I struggle with concentration & focus. My Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder causes me to have unwanted, intrusive, inappropriate thoughts, & it gets the BEST of me when I'm trying to do my reading assignments for homework. I find myself spending hours & hours reading the 1st sentence over & over again & eventually give up on trying to concentrate on reading because of the repetitive unwanted thoughts. This also makes my mind go blank during exams & I end up flunking. This isn't fair that my grades have to suffer for my psychiatric disabilities, & the meds NEVER seem to help.
