Hello Fox,

I was a major underachiever in high school who can empathize with your feelings of inferiority. Self-confidence has always eluded me and everyone else seemed to be so much more driven and successful than I could ever hope to be. After being prescribed adderall for ADD, my life changed drastically, but major costs accompanied my ignorant decision to accept the treatment. Ten years later I cannot function without it and often wonder how my life would have turned out if I had never began. I suffer many of the issues you described to this day.

Recently though, I've realized that the medication is little more than a motivation and energy booster; a tool to help me get the job done. I'm
No smarter on the pill than off of it.

I know this has already been long winded, but here is what I'm trying to say: we all have potential to be smarter than we currently are. How we compare to others is irrelevant. Focus on bettering yourself by seeking the next stage of enlightenment or the next step toward your goal. Nobody is inherently better than any other person and you have the power to mold yourself in any image of your choosing!!!!! Never let anyone tell you any different and strive to prove the naysayers wrong!

Here is something to get you started toward your current goal of becoming smarter more efficiently, and this process works. I used it to earn a 3.75 GPA while pursuing my bachelors degree. Keep in mind that I graduated high school with less than a 2.5. Only you set your limits!
