Tips for studying with depression?
Hello. I'm a student whose executive dysfunction has always been bad because of my depression. I'm just wondering if there's anyone here that struggles with their mental health that have some tricks that work for them?
Extra information on my situation:
To be clear, electronics and such have something to do with this. I'm pretty good about not being on my phone, especially not while I'm working, except that being depressed eventually gets me on my phone because I just don't have the energy to do anything but sit on my phone and read (I try very, very hard not to scroll). I know it's unhealthy and that I should probably put my phone in another room, which I do and it usually works but only when I'm not feeling 'super depressed,' in which case I end up going on random stuff on my computer instead. Also, part of why I end up on such electronics is because I seriously don't want to focus on any of the Bad Thoughts that go through my brain. (For the record, I've tried apps, too, such as Focus Town, which I love, but I'd still like to have tips that don't require apps like that.)
So, if anyone in here has had similar experiences that have tips that might help with my depression/executive dysfunction I'd be forever grateful!!
