What advice do you have for disabled students on obtaining a degree?
I am a disabled and neurodivergent freshman in college. I've been struggling to complete my assignments on time due to my disabilities. I am wondering what advice the community here may have on navigating academics while managing health issues. My current long-term career interest is to be a community college professor in either English or studio art. That seems like such a long path, though, as I am currently only able to attend part time. Thank you for any guidance you may have.

How bad is dropping a class?
I am currently taking 17 units at crc (Biology major, wanting to be a dentist), ( I had previously written 18, but that ended up being very wrong) but I think I have undiagnosed ADHD, and it's been taking such a big mental toll on me. I also suffer from intense migraines daily, and I am going to see a neurologist soon for that. My point being, I am constantly stressed and unable to focus. I studied so hard for my math exam, only to fail my second exam. At this rate, I will most likely fail my math class. The class is a preparation for calculus class by the way. I want to transfer to UC Davis as soon as possible, so I feel as though Im putting alot of pressure on myself. If I drop the class, I will be at 11 (previously wrote 14) units. My insurance also can not find me a psychiatrist and hasn't reached out to me yet when I asked to find someone to check if I have ADHD. At this point, I know I do and need to be medicated because I literally can't function. This is kind of a cry for help, idk what to do and im stressed and scared.
