I'm feeling it and wish I didn't. I have a 3 page research paper due on the 12th and I haven't even started. I've never actually used APA so I don't really know what I'm doing either. I also have a powerpoint presentation for another class and they didn't give us a due date. I have barely started that one. Having some huge motivation trouble right now too, I know I have to get it done but I just look at it and do nothing. I just can't make myself do it.

I really get it, its hard right now, but even just creating the word document for it will help. Try putting one sentence down, if it isn't too bad, try a second. Make messy bullet points to just get something on the page, and eventually it will be a bit less painful when the hurdle of Starting is done. I believe in you! You're gonna kill it!

You got this! I know it seems like a bit of an impossible task, but remember that even a 5% is more than nothing. Even if you can only get one assignment done in a day, or even just one in a week, you still finished something, and thats something to be proud of! I believe you can get out of this pile of work, it might not be a fun thing to do, but I know you have it in you! Just know too that theres no shame in resting when you need to, and that its important to let yourself rest without feeling guilty. On my worst days when I dont even want to get up to eat or go to the bathroom but still need to get work done, I give myself an hour, 2 hours, to just lay there, sometimes sleeping, sometimes not, without beating myself up about not working, and while it doesnt magically fix everything, it can help to get past the surge of "i should be working but i cant"
Be kind to yourself, you have the capacity to get through this :)

dinosaur42 Best of luck on those exams! If you've already turned them in - good job! If you're still working on them - you can do this! We may not know each other, but I believe in you.
If it helps, here's a saying my mother would always tell me when I would feel overwhelmed by large workloads or such: "How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time." Basically, no matter how large or impossible a task may seem, even the smallest actions get you closer to conquering that challenge.
For me, I'm not really being crushed by looming deadlines (though I need to turn in a paper at the end of the weekend), but I just have so much happening in so little time. I absolutely love my majors, but between the two of them I can go through cycles of great self care and time management to barely having enough time to sleep with the huge workloads, with not much in-between.

My executive function is in the trash :/
I have two late lab reports, a math presentation next week which I haven't even started learning the topic I'm supposed to present on, an overdue research final draft, another research draft due next Monday, and I just flopped the test I had today (and it's not gonna be curved) :)

I currently don't have much to do, but I feel like I'm behind in both my classes. I have to find a lab group for one of those, but my social skills are terrible. On top of that, I failed a class last autumn and I gotta retake the exam this summer which I am pretty stressed for. It's even more difficult since I've only been taking online classes for over a year now, so my mental health and social skills have definitely deteriorated. Can't the pandemic just end already?

Yeah I feel that... Can't wait till everyone is vaccinated and we can go in-person. I signed up for remote labs which I regret because we don't get to use actual fancy lab equipment that would make things a whole lot easier. And the only socializing I've been doing is behind a screen in breakout rooms so I definitely relate, haha.
