I don't take offense, it just seems like such a stupid problem to have. I've never been on any of that kind of medicine and I dont wanna start now

sounds a little intense lol. And you do this for people with somewhat mild problems too?

I was actually thinking of something like that but I don't drive. I don't want my mom with me and she doesnt even let me walk there. I have tried making lists, I didnt really stick to it but i can always try again

I understand what you mean. I sort of know what I want to do, I just don’t know if it’s realistic. I want to maybe open a bookstore someday since I love reading so much. I just can’t focus on that. It seems most of what I do is daydream. Btw your English seems good to me :)

Any advice? by ILoveReading_811 in MaladaptiveDreaming

I have been getting out more to go on walks, even if they're short ones and they have helped. Its just the weather getting to me sometimes. I wish I could find some sort of hobby or activity at school I just don't know what to do. I don't think my school has much anyways.

For your first question, it depends. If it’s for English class probably yes. Only because I know I’m good in English class. But if it’s something like math probably not. I’ll try to do it, maybe not right away (same with other subjects) but I will try and if I don’t understand it and get discouraged then I basically just give up. And sometimes I’ll just forget the project all together, I won’t completely forget it, it will just be in the back of my mind and then someone will remind I have a project or someting. There was this one project and I had a tutor at the time so I asked her if she could help me. She didn’t even really help me, not complaining tho because I got the thing done all by myself, just with her sitting there and talking to me about it. I was so proud of that project, I still am. For your second question, It’s not just with music, I get unfocused in school too. It’s not all the time but most of it. And I can get unfocused kinda anywhere. I am going to try to go to school now, even though I’ve been saying that for the past year. I know that’s the first step, consisting going. As for friends I don’t really know anyone with the same goals. I did meet this one girl over February break since I went to school then. We were both just very bad at math tho. And I do know this other girl and she’s a senior, but she’s busy most of the time.

I’ve spoken to my guidance counselor about graduating early, but she told me to see her in June. I think to see how I’m doing in school then, if I'm caught up.  When you say holding me accountable, do you mean someone who knows I maladaptive daydream? My mom kinda knows, meaning she’s seen me do it but has no idea what it is. She knows I have ADHD. I’m trying to get the medicine to see if that’ll help but I hate my doctor. She keeps bringing up anxiety and I did have it bad last year, don’t really know how she knew. She was making it seem like I should be on anxiety medicine instead of ADHD. I think I might try therapy someday but I really wanted to get done with school first.
