    I’m in a similar situation; except I’m currently beginning to lose my momentum in senior year of online school.

    I got carried through School with early intervention, ADHD meds, good people, and IEPs (that I didn’t use because of fear).

    I weased off my ADHD meds in 9th grade. Bad idea! I started to feel tired constantly.

    I learnt early that I had ADHD; but I didn’t understand what ADHD was, until I researched it up last year.


    Even with the support I got; I felt that School wasted my time.

    I wanted to learn complex math and engineering power tools as a child. All I got to play with was Glue, Tape, and kid-friendly material. I ended up losing interest in engineering stuff anyway; but I imagine that I could have kept my interest for longer if school wasn’t so slow.


    I’m uncertain if I can survive work in a country with good worker support. (I fear work in the U.S; I’ve heard a lot of stories of worker mistreatment in the U.S.)
