Yes it is very common, I have comorbid ADD, generalized anxiety disorder and social anxiety disorder and it's been suggested that I be evaluated for some form of OCD. |

I am going to be a senior in high school in the fall and I am starting to be very nervous for college. I have a lot of friends at school because it is a very small school (only 300 kids in the high school) but I don't know if I'm going to be able to make friends at a big university. So how do you ma... |

I am a very high achieving student, I will graduate with 10 AP courses, I have a 1510 on the SAT and a 4.0 GPA. The colleges I am looking at right now are UGA... |
