i regret getting diagnosed
I got diagnosed with ADHD around April of this year and I recently started concerta (18mg)
I’m not exactly sure how to word this but I feel like after my diagnosis, I’ve been limiting myself more. Like I think of myself negatively a lot stronger than I did when I was undiagnosed/unmedicated (though I sort of always knew what was wrong with me)
Anyway, I am a rising senior in high school and I can’t help but think about how I’m kinda fucked for the rest of my life due to poor academic performance. I considered military before I was diagnosed and now I legally can’t. I currently have a 2.4 GPA so theres not much I can do after graduation aside from community college.
I don’t really know what else to say so if anyone relates or has advice I would appreciate hearing that
