Sometimes I feel like ADHD controls me.

You’re not doing anything wrong . I sometimes feel the exact same . I go to a secondary school in the uk and the truth is the education system and the world itself isn’t fully compatible with people with adhd . The difference is if your going to let that factor consume you or if your going to use it as fuel for success. The fact that you’re trying to get around your problem already shows a lot . You might feel your stuck in a position but the truth is your moving forward slowly . You need to recognise how much better you are than you think . You’re on a journey- we all are . And there are people rooting for you so keep striving- things will get better . Stay strong

Same thing with me

It’s not you, it’s being forced to live in a neurotypical world. Give yourself grace and love. When you can, take courses that interest you or find what interests you in courses that don’t. Do you have an Advisor? If so, see if they can get you accommodations, especially the ability to take classes you’re into. Study buddy or body doubling will help. Take small steps and note all your successes even the tiny ones! You can do this 😘

Hey, I’m really sorry you’re feeling this way. It can be incredibly hard sometimes, especially in a school environment. There’s also a lot of boring or uninteresting stuff you’re forced to push through. Sometimes it can help to find a tiny bit of fun in the task — like the Mary Poppins idea: ‘In every job that must be done, there is an element of fun. You find the fun and — snap! — the job’s a game.’ Gamification helped me a lot. Please try to be a little kinder to yourself. You’re not an ‘ugly dumb ogre.’ Your struggle deserves understanding, not shame, and it doesn’t define your worth.
