I was diagnosed with ADD about 1/2 a year ago and it’s changed my life around a lot. I no longer have to worry about class and getting good grades but I do get anxious and depressed pretty regularly now when I’m on them. I’ve been struggling basically my whole life with getting good grades and living up to my parents standards for my grades and being pretty depressed whenever I consistently failed to do so. So I’m kinda stuck. Today I told my mom I have pretty bad depression and eventually she understood after a little convincing, hopefully she brings it up to my psychiatrist. Ive had a rough year and I’m about ready to give up, but I’m holding onto the hope that something is going to get better. And I have an amazing girlfriend who is helping me through a lot of this as well. I really hope things get better because my depression is absolutely crippling, I can’t work with it or do anything, I have to wait it out for hours until I feel a bit better. I usually just say that’s life and move on with my problems but it’s too much today.
