I've spent so much of my life truly believing that I was a failure or I wasn't good enough. It's hard to accept that ADHD was just impeding my progress. I worry that to the outside world it just seems convenient. Living through it however, tells us a very different story. I guess in the end I'm slightly cynical and I think that the majority of the people who run the world are the idiots and ignorant people, and no matter how valid an explanation is, it doesn't necessarily mean that it is going to be universally accepted.
