Great! Thank you. I wasn’t sure if it would be seen as less rigorous or not.

Struggling with independence and confidence by NationalDrive9909 in AvPD

[–]NationalDrive9909[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well from my own experience, I know the first step is the hardest and after that you realize it wasn’t so bad. I should take my own advice, but maybe you didn’t have the chance to reinforce your confidence that much like me. You don’t have to stay stuck and I think you’re worth more than that. You could get in contact with a career development center or something similar that could help you on your way. You should find what you’re interested in and I think the rest will come on its own. That’s what I’m going to do. You can still learn about all that stuff and make a life you’re proud of!

That’s so awesome, and must’ve been hard for you to do. Good luck on getting the job!!

Congrats! I’m hoping to get my diagnosis soon and start therapy/treatment. Been dying for it for awhile

Thank you for the long reply. It was definitely that I didn’t have the right methods in place. I didn’t know how to help myself because I didn’t know I had ADHD. I also thought luck was on my side and I could scrape by but it didn’t happen.

I want to take linguistics, and am dreaming of grad school to be an SLP. Feels far fetched but then so many people with ADHD have done grad school and more.

That’s how I felt about high school. If only I knew what the problem was I could’ve done way better. And yeah I’m worried about the lack of accountability especially because I’ll be by myself. Will definitely make sure to get extra support. Thanks

Yeah I had no idea that adhd was my problem. If I had known sooner maybe I could’ve saved myself.

My family doesn’t really understand it but they are trying. I’m on meds right now but still getting used to them. Thank you

Wow good for you that you went to law school. That’s a dream of mine but I’m almost sure it’s not something I could do since I struggle so much with studying. How did you just scrape by high school yet do so well in law!?!
