What college major and career would be good for a high verbal reasoning score, low working memory, and poor math skills?

I'm struggling. I've completely failed at environmental science, botany, computer science, and now business. Mostly because of abysmal math skills. I was going to get tested for dyscalculia eventually, but it was expensive and insurance didn't cover it. I did other cognitive testing back in 2024, including the WAIS, and my highest score was a 120 on the VRI. My WMI was 89. Total score was 104 with GAI at 106. I always got As in English literature, writing, philosophy, history, and art. Math was straight Fs and Ds all the time. Programming was impossible for me, too...I had to give up going into web dev. Trying to find a path.

I was feeling out of my mind for almost two weeks, can't sleep, and feeling wired. Binge eating/shopping. I had to go to my work clinic because it was getting bad. The CMHC there gave me some questionnaires and asked me about my mood/behavior and said I likely have BPII and should see the DO in the same office for mood stabilizers.

I've had issues with serious depression, but I think they aren't taking Graves' disease into account (I told them about it and they can see my chart since it's part of the same system). I adjusted my methimazole regimen around the same time and even though my levels are normal, my T3 and T4 went up. T4 is close to the hyper threshold. And when the levels were low I was more depressed than I'd been in my life. Now I'm just confused. Is it Graves' or do I have yet another random diagnosis to deal with now? I don't want to take more medication.
