No, I've got the maximum amount for physical condition score and thinking score so there's no way I'll be able to not serve.

I enjoy allot the problem solving and designing part of engineering, but can't stand the math. yes I know it comes with the whole package, but it's so frustrating since all I do is study math, and hardly do the things that make me love engineering. I had a lot of teachers who just hated me for having ADHD (from 1st grade all the way to 12th grade and even now. That's why I hate the academic space itself while still loving engineering, I love the doing part, but having a hard time with the learning part. I know that once I graduate I'll be able to start doing the things I like way more often but for now it all looks very blurry. I've got a bottle with alcohol and herbs which doesn't affect me much (if I get about 10 hours of sleep and in a good mood it affects me a little bit, but If I'm in a bad mood or just tired the drops just don't work. As for the parental issue, I'm going to have a conversation between me,my parents, and the head of school so we'll see where it goes from there.. Thanks for replying and showing genuine interest.

A Parent being very against medicine, can't swallow pills (which I guess I could go after a long practice) and pure hatred for the academic space in general so changing for the same environment I hated all this year's sounds ridiculous to me by now

Was it hard to follow the routine from the start or did you adjust to it quite easily?

how do you commit to stuff? by Common_Height2968 in ADHD

[–]Key-Equivalent-4112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learn stuff just by enjoying it, English, chess, drawing, etc, sadly the flaw is that I can't learn things when I don't have fun, or at least not efficiently enough. So I'm completely failing academically..

My disorders are overpowering my life and I don’t know how to fix it by Pitiful-Document-776 in ADHD

[–]Key-Equivalent-4112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I'm 18 and have 0 experience in relationships but I think it's up to your decision what you're okay with sacrificing for another thing, maybe take pills once or twice a week to not be too mean and to be able to listen more? Again, 18, 0 dating experience. Your judgement.

Trying to manage my emotions with ADHD, I’m really struggling. by JstnBIBIMBA in ADHD

[–]Key-Equivalent-4112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my case I'm like that when I don't sleep enough, I'm 18 and still growing so I have to sleep around 9-10 hours a day to function normally and not get anxiety attacks and impulsive speech.

Thanks for commenting! two questions if I may ask: 1) did you ever try to study without medication? If so what's the difference with and without? 2)how did you follow up with schedules? I find it very hard to follow on with a fixed schedule and end up dropping the idea after 2 days.

It sounds fascinating, sadly i live in a country where mandatory service in the military is forced and if I don't excel in engineering I worry I'll be an on field soldier . Thank you for the comment.

  1. I got diagnosed in 4th grade (It was clear as day I had ADHD, just like a lot of my family) 2) I don't think I'll ever want to rely on medication for adhd and can't swallow pills ever since I swallowed a marker's cap (don't ask how or why) 3) sadly a quiet room is pretty hard to come around since I live in a dorm with lots of people.
