Feeling super incompetent
Post Body

Hey y'all. So I was diagnosed with ADHD around 4 years ago, started going on meds this year, but I don't feel like they really do much at all.

I just feel really incompetent in most aspects of my life. It is such a struggle for me to get schoolwork done, and every few weeks I'll break down and feel like I won't be able to succeed in anything. I spent the entire weekend intending to get work done, but barely did anything, plus I totally forgot about a club meeting that I was so excited to go to. I've really been trying to get a grip on things this semester, like time management and shit, but sometimes I just don't know how I'll get through another three years of college, not to mention I have a ton of other medical issues.

Update: I went to my school's writing center today and it helped a lot!! I'm definitely going to go there more often, cause it's really useful. I also have an appointment with our accessibility office tomorrow that offers coaching and stuff for folks with ADHD and shit. I had a chat with my advisor and she said that she's really glad that I'm taking the initiative to reach out to on-campus resources :) Just thought I'd give this a lil update. I'll probably start freaking out again in a month or so, cause that's usually the routine: get by until I just can't take it, then freak out about my situation. I'm gonna try and break that cycle though!
