21M in college. I got diagnosed with ADHD almost a year ago, and I still feel like I don’t know how to control my ADHD and like…basically be a functional college student. As of rn I’m on my third adhd medication, not counting multiple dosage increases, and I still feel like NOTHING is working well enough. I’m flopping bad in all my classes, i’m way behind in my job, and gosh it just feels like I literally can’t do anything. I thought being diagnosed and medicated would make things easier, but no. my productivity skills is literally a 0.
Can I speak to anyone that was late diagnosed? How long until after you were diagnosed that you felt like you could finally control your life???? If ever….
I haven’t been one to lose hope but gosh i am feeling very discouraged
