I did this in high school and I know it’s a horrible loop to be into. Your best way out is following: 1. study through all course materials available over a few days (use ai summaries if there’s a lot, look up youtube videos, if you’re stuck, change your medium, phone a friend in the class if you have one) 2. email the professor for possible late credits (be honest that you’ve been in a rough spot) 3. while waiting email response, do your assignments, reschedule any missing quizzes

Either drop it it's too late to salvage your grade or go back stop missing and if your TA asks say u had family problems. They won't ask anything else if u say that

Or some variation of that- vague but sensitive enough they won't inquire

If you dont have social anxiety, go to the next class to see what the topic is, talk to someone next to you and ask for their notes (or get their contact) so you have a friend

It is completely ok that you are behind, the TAs could not care less. Imagine if you are in their position, you might even want to help the student. Remember only YOU are responsible for your studies
