People with ADHD are often socially ostracized in thir childhood and end up developing low self esteem and personality disorders later. This leads to further ostracism and failure later in life. I firmly believe that I have been cheated out of the life I deserve and I will never accept it.

Wow. Look, tough love here. Everyone on this site has issues with their parents and what they did or did not do or provide. At this point, you are and adult, and you must take responsibility for yourself and anything you want out of life. If you want your life to be different, it's up to YOU to change it. Not your parents.
