Things have been going on pretty badly at work recently. Been sending wrong emails/attachments to wrong parties etc. (this happened before but only 3/4 times in the past year as compared to twice this week). - That is just an example.

Problem is my boss loves to make comments about how I "don't care enough", that I "can't be bothered" which is not true! - well, initially although I have a feeling it is slowly turning into a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I've told him bout my ADHD before but his comments were just, (after I've described the 'symptoms') that he has them as well and how he overcame them.

The thing is, I don't think he has ADHD (he loves repetitive tasks, for one; he is patient, apparently very careful etc. - basically he is the opposite of me in so many ways) so I don't think he fully understands the amount of hurdles I have to jump through to be get through the day getting my tasks done. So to him, it is always a simple "you don't care enough". And it is getting so annoying I am slowly bursting out more and more (in anger) in the office.

I am not acting entitled or anything but Im just wondering (I am already, imo, trying my best) if this problem is going to persist throughout my entire life? Or should I find someone else who understands/ working pattern suits me more?

Of course, there are various other causes of unhappiness (e.g. him always putting me down, making me feel like a retard for asking 'simple'/'obvious' answers - which is another issue - I wonder if these things are just not obvious to me? or are they not obvious to other people too?).

I am not blaming him 100% because i tend to make so much errors. But it is this assumption that 'I don't care' with no regards as to why I can overlook things etc. that is really getting into me... and part of me feel that yes, maybe I do deserve that but at the same time, is this a sign that I am not good enough for this job?

I mean, I know I am not stupid (with just a little higher than average intelligence, if I may say so myself) but daily tasks are a challenge to me. I am not sure if this just means that this industry is too challenging for me, or if I should just buck up and 'try' harder. The problem is I really love my occupation (won't say job) and I cannot imagine doing something else!!

P.S. I dont live in America so no need to talk about the Disability Act.
