In this episode, I'll be sharing my personal story of feeling stupid because I have ADHD. I used to think everyone thought how I think, but I was wrong. It wasn't until I was diagnosed in middle school or high school that I began to understand the impact of ADHD on my life.

I struggled with school, from testing to doing work, and it made me drop out of college. I felt defeated, but in the real world, ADHD actually made me thrive with many things. Being around a community of people who supported me and may have had advice to give was awesome and helped so much.

I learned that finding a way to fill up your energy cup is key because school is not impossible, it's just different for someone who is neurodivergent. Seeking help, guidance, and just support helps to be with someone who is neurodivergent.

I want to emphasize that yes, there are bad people and lazy people, but that's just how the world is. Lazy does not mean you have ADHD. There are lazy people out there who don't have ADHD. There is good and bad in everything, whether you have ADHD or not.

So join me as I share my journey and tips on how to thrive with ADHD. Remember, ADHD does not make you stupid.
