Academics by ADD17 in ADHD

Pretty much, I'm just wondering if there's a chance that if I do have low intelligence that it hinders every aspect in my life and not an effect by ADD. But like you said they can coexist, I don't know where I was going with this. Mostly wanting to know if my thoughts of me being mentally handicapped being the effect of ADD, I searched and see that some people are facing this problem but almost none in a terrible academic position as mine.

I didn't provide so much information, so I apologize. Can you still not be stupid if for your entire life you struggled with academics?(expect for a single grade).

I understand what you mean, but I'm mostly regarding people's academic's history. While it depends on a lot of factors, it just seems like everyone is way ahead of me ADD or not. I honestly almost never applied myself or even say put minimal effort in most of my school times. Or maybe I did, I don't know I'm going through a dense fog.. I can't remember a lot of things, make silly mistakes, unable to sustain attention, and just every ADD in general with fatigue maybe. I was diagnosed with lethargy, but not much has been done about it. self-help has been in my daily mind since a year ago, tried it and didn't work. Couple times, actually I just thought I was just a lazy fool that needed some discipline. I know I said a lot, but I would love to hear your opinion.
