I relate to this- I have such a hard time with focus and it really affects me. It makes most days significantly challenging. It takes all my effort to make it through work... I can’t focus on movies or reading... have terrible memory/recall, and have trouble completing tasks.

I saw a psychologist who basically told me I’m too “high functioning” to have ADHD because I’m “successful” and “made it through college.” She said my “symptoms aren’t affecting me enough” which is bs because these symptoms are significantly affecting me daily, I just somehow find workarounds to somehow keep going.

I was tested for cognitive testing which definitely could be the cause... don’t get results till next week.

I’m eager to learn ways to better manage this because it’s impacting my life way too much...
