Weekly Mental Health Q&A


Monday, March 17th

“I can’t seem to study effectively. I keep getting distracted and before I know it, hours have passed and my work is not done. My grades are beginning to suffer and it isn’t because I am not capable of doing the work, it is because I simply don’t get to it!”

HOW CAN SCRS HELP?:

  • A study skills specialist at SCRS can evaluate your problem, identify what steps to take that might help you learn to focus more efficiently and assess if an underlying problem relates to your distractibility and how best to address it.
