But in Uni it-s different. I just hope that no one passes and feels what I have, as it-s really not fun.

When I go into a test or hand in a paper I do so knowing I have done my absolute best and "it is what it is". I never feel like I could have done more but ADD held me back. Like I've said, you learn how to adapt and plan your life accordingly. Some how I manage to get good grades and when I don't get good marks on something I don't blame ADD. I reevaluate the way I studied for the exam or such.
