i have no idea what im doing anymore
i was only recently diagnosed with adhd (midway through my freshman yr of college) and i performed poorly as i didn’t start treatment till the following semester. while i didn’t do as bad the second semester i didn’t really do “good” either and now im on academic probation. so far ive taken at 2 medications, generic vyvanse 60mg and strattera at 80 mg. i still feel helpless. i decided to leave my university and pursue a different program altogether in hopes ill be able to perform better, as ill be homeless if i don’t stay in school. my parents don’t know about my diagnosis because they’re that category of gen x that “doesn’t believe in mental illness” so ive paid for all my treatments out of pocket without insurance. it’s taking a toll on me financially, especially now that i will have to pay for my cc out of pocket. if anyone experienced something similar in life how did you get through it? i need hope as everything feels impossible rn.
