Happy holidays Ivygrl!
Please see below part one of my reply. I will post part two separately tomorrow. There is a lot to cover!
I would recommend reading about different learning styles and studying / note taking methods. Figure out which study techniques might be helpful to you. Unfortunately, college is often better than school for accommodating different learning styles. Taking regular breaks is important when you’re studying. When you’re at home perhaps you could get a snack to eat while you’re studying.
There are a lot of free websites that can assist with school work. If you Google the topic you’re working on you may find helpful information. Khan Academy is a great website with information about a variety of subjects.
Regarding your art and writing. There are many online communities and resources that can assist you with your art and writing. Google is a wonderful tool. It sounds difficult to find a balance with school and creativity.
Good luck!
Though I run this site, it is not mine. It's ours. It's not about me. It's about us. Your stories and your wisdom are just as meaningful as mine.
