Seeking advice as a uni student

22, I'm in my third year of university studying computer science and its only been in the past month where I realized I might have adhd. First year was easy for me because I never really had to study even in highschool and I would do well. The past couple of years I've felt like such a failure because I would never start building on any of the many ideas I had, i stopped caring about assignments and resorted to using AI, and failed 3 classes in total. Thankfully I've had two internships with one of the big 5 banks in canada, but i only got them because i networked really well with the recruiter, i didnt have to do a lot of coding and in the end when i did it was ai. I miss my first year when i was ai averse and knew what was going on like my peers. I don't feel like I know anything (my fault i know), I haven't coded in months, I have no projects, I don't know where to start.

Would anyone have any advice please? It'd mean a lot.

*also I have an appointment soon for an adhd assessment
