You've got this. Remember - be honest with your supervisors about where you are at (maybe not too honest, there are drastically differing opinions about whether to disclose your disability or not). Get to know what their exact expectations are, and let them know what works best for you - if it's a job where you have that kind of flexibility. Some people like getting lists, or making checklists for the boring stuff. Some folks like methods like https://gettingthingsdone.com/ .
Either way, remember to check in with your body. Make sure you are eating and sleeping. Try your best to get your sleep cycle back to a healthy place, if your body is willing. Check in with your feelings - depression and anxiety can sap away a lot of energy when you aren't even noticing them.
You've got this. In a few weeks, everything will seem routine, maybe even boring :)
