...See more I just recently got diagnosed with ADHD. It makes a lot of sense and I'm not sure how I've never realized it before. I struggle a lot with focusing on things, it's very discouraging because I know I'm not academically dumb. My grades in school have never looked this bad, it's not like I'm dumb, it's just so hard to focus on a lesson and finish it the day it's due. I'm using this as an outlet because my friends wouldn't relate to my struggles and I feel as if I'm really annoying to them already.  I've also gotten prescribed to an enhanced cognition medication, I think it's helping but I really don't like the side effects. I skipped taking them today because yesterday while I was driving my body just felt so awful and it was hard to breathe, so I'm gonna see how my body reacts today without the meds.
