FEEL LIKE IM WASTING MY LIFE AWAY..

it’s 2am and i’m honestly embarrassed by how bad i’m doing at university.

I have ADHD and I feel like i’m fighting myself over the most basic things. I’ll have an assignment open for hours, knowing exactly what i need to do, knowing i’m wasting time, and i still just… can’t start. Then i avoid my emails because i’m scared there’s something i forgot. Messages sit there for days. My room gets gross. Sometimes i’m actually hungry and still can’t get myself up to make food.

I know how this looks. Lazy. careless. like i just don’t give a shit. but i do. that’s what hurts the most. I care way too much, and somehow that still isn’t enough to make me move.

I’m seriously thinking about taking this semester off. Has anyone with ADHD gotten to this point and actually figured out how to make themselves START things again? not planner advice, i mean something that genuinely helped.

I see what I read but its not getting through my brain as if I only see it, no matter what focus I put I can’t seem to understand or remember what I ready anymore, I’m not like this before, am I the only one?

how do I fix this? I need to get my focus back because I’m failing my exams and I still can’t focus
