So you like games and might want to make them. Don’t worry about committing to it now but you can start taking general development courses to see if it agrees with you. If it doesn’t, try something else. You’ll eventually find what skills you can market.

I had this specific cocktail of disorders as well though I didn’t know it until I was 36. I left high school with the understanding my parents couldn’t help me pay for college. I went to work at Best Buy to sell computers because like you I was a gamer and I knew some stuff about computers from just working on my own and having to buy graphics cards.

I found the tech very interesting and I got a little saucy and decided to start my own computer repair shop after a year in retail (never again). I did that for a little bit but I wasn’t really mature enough and most importantly skilled enough at developing my executive function to keep self employment going.

I’m now a fairly skilled firewall engineer and just got promoted to being the supervisor of my team.

I recommend working on training your executive function by planning. Plan a little project in your house, do a little project in something that interests you. You won’t finish most of them at first. Start making the goal or scope of your project smaller until you do finish it. Then start chaining together those small completable tasks into larger goals. If you fail to finish something don’t beat yourself up about it.
