For those who attended college, how did you manage that along with the bipolar?

I want to get an English degree but I'm very worried I won't be able to handle it. I take meds notorious for cognition issues, along with having ADHD and autism which can have similar issues. I would love to hear all your experiences and if you have advice.

EDIT: This post blew up more than I expected! thank you everyone who is sharing. you've encouraged me a lot!
