    I did the opposite for the last part. I just went the “lazy” path of just doing hard things. As they were easy for me and rewarded more. If the hard things were rewarded less, why bother in the first place?

    So I got based by teachers as “not precise enough” because they could clearly see I totally understood what the exercise wanted me to do, I just didn’t do “the easy part” of writing it properly.

      I don’t have a diagnosis yet but this is extremely relatable to me and I hope it gets better when I get one

        The only thing a diagnosis changes is external proof that you have ADHD. If that will help you then yes it will get better.

        Personally I stopped taking ADHD meds. They changed me into a different person and I’d rather learn to live with myself.

          I think it would help me feel more sure because I have some absolute proof that I’m making all of this up, although I have heard some people saying that they still have imposter sydrome. Also I hope that meds help me stay focused without tooo many side effects
