We just have to work within the limitations. I was only recently dx'd. I had a very successful high school career, but varsity was a different story. It's taken me around 6 years to complete my degree part-time, and now I was reading something the other day that I think my degree needs to be completed in 5 years -WTF?? This is the best I can do, with my moods going up and down. Going to varsity full time is NOT an option. I work and study, allowing me to move around my moods.
I know my work is currently suffering and I'm in a very fortunate position to have people partially cover for me, and otherwise I manage to wear a mask. But not sure how long I can carry on like this.
Success stories do inspire me, and make me realise I'm not alone
