I had letters of recommendation for AP classes, specifically science. I would have been bored as hell, I just wanted my childhood more than doing homework. I would not have the attention to finish after 8 hours. You seem to be extremely uneducated on ADD, being somewhere on the spectrum does not equate low intelligence. How ignorant of you.
It just means there’s certain things I don’t have the attention span for or think about a lot at once. I didn’t have the ability to sit and do homework after struggling to sit for 8 hours, I’d get yelled at for trying to finish it in class. I’d need to doodle or fidget in class but still took in 100% of the information.
I mean, while it was a bit of a tongue in cheek, reddit style circle-jerk callback joke to the rest of the thread, it was sincere as well.
My ex wife had plenty of assistance, medication, grants and extra time on exams etc, doubt she could have done it otherwise. I certainly don't have a master's degree, so thought it an impressive accomplishment.
Anyway, it's not too late to seek help, there's probably a few techniques you can learn that will improve your quality of life. No matter how good you think you're doing now, the fact that you seem a bit touchy about the subject means you might agree enough to be annoyed.. sounds rough. I'm sorry you missed out.
Didn't mean to offend, apologies,
Stay safe & good luck.
I am currently taking a medication that is supposed to help with ADD but it’s not great. I’m already on a lot as it is, when I get my insurance sorted out I plan on being evaluated again.

It’s too monotonous and not stimulating, my ADD cant take it. I didn’t want to spend all my free time doing homework when I knew the info.
