I’ve never been so busy, I made the life altering decision to go back to college at 30 to get an engineering degree. I generally like math and I love building things and messing with electronics, it should be the perfect fit. But after starting at calc 2 and now doing 5 or 6 classes full time, working, and planning a wedding. I feel like I’m stretched thin.

I’ll get off of school and my brain feels like molasses. I’m medicated but I still feel like everyone is learning at twice the speed as me while I reread the question to make sure I actually understand the wording.

There’s some of you out there who are engineers, scientists, doctors with ADHD, who go out and do community stuff, go to the gym, live life and even socialize.

How? How do you do it? How do you keep up with such a constant schedule and try to understand new concepts every day on top of that? How do you not just curl into a ball and closing up into yourself to stop being overwhelmed?

I feel like I’m doing life on hard mode and it sucks
