My brain and body are fried to the crisp. I have so much pain in my lower back and neck/shoulder area and it's because I left 20+ assignments until the last week of classes and even then I still kept procrastinating 2 weeks before classes ended. May 18th was technically the last day but one of my professors is being merciful by giving me until Wednesday or Thursday to finish the assignments I have left for his classes. This semester my fucking ADHD is on another level especially with the insane levels of procrastination as well as task paralysis I have had. I would think about my assignments at home and at work. It would constantly be in the back of my head but I just couldn't get myself to do it. And then there would be other times where I would constantly stare at all the work I needed to do and I'd get overwhelmed by the amount I had to get done. I've never been this bad. Last semester was bad too but this is on another fucking level. I submitted several assignments today half done.

My neighbor has had two instances where he came into my home. The first one was when our front door was not working properly and when my dad left for work in the morning it did not close and was somehow wide open. I was sleeping in my bedroom. My neighbor walked into the house pacing around the living room saying hello several times. That's when I woke up freaking out and then he opened my sister's bedroom which was vacant. She was not home. He then came into the hallway and tried to turn the doorknob several times. My door was locked. I was practically naked in bed and having a panic attack because I thought my neighbor was going to attack me in some way. I was too afraid to call 911 and instead called my mom who was at work at the time but she works close-by and came home to see if I was okay. I was shaking in fear. If I had called the cops would the neighbor be at fault for entering the home even though the door was not locked and wide open?

Second instance, the same neighbor knocked on my door. I thought my sister was home and didn't think anything would really happen if I opened the house door for him since I also thought my mom was out front somewhere close by. My mom likes to feed my neighbor sometimes because he just lost his wife recently. So he comes to our house and leaves coffee or sweets at our house as a thank you gesture. Anyway, once I opened the door for him he gave me the coffee or whatever. I can't remember everything he asked me but he started step foot inside the house. He came inside and said let me take a look at you and grabbed my arms and his face was mere centimeters away from mine. He asked me if I have a boyfriend. I said no and he kept asking me why. I just told him I'm religious and things like that. I wanted to try and get him off of me but I was too terrified of what reactions he might have so I just gave into his whims. Is this considered assault or battery? I was so disgusted afterwards I tried washing off what happened with soap even though it wasn't a big deal. It's not like it was SA or anything like that.

BTW I did not call the cops out of fear he might retaliate towards me in some way. We live next to each other.
