When I selected english as first foreign language they told me I was lazy...<br/><br/>School was torture most of the time, esp junior high school where I got bullied because I was so &#39;weird&#39;. IQ diagnosis at 13 did not really help, the &#39;psy&#39; was an asshole and the results were expectations from family were raised instezd of adjusted. <br/><br/>Ended up jn the Navy ( try watching effing liners on a radar screen in the Middle of the night with ADHD. I was very good during rais but fell asleep otherwise). Then I moved to IT and got an OK career &#39;cause computers understand me better.<br/><br/>I realized I&#39;m #actuallyautistic at about 50, learned about exécutive dysfunctioning some years later ( I thought I was lazy) and about ADHD at about the same age. In my family ADHD are expected to be physically hyper active, and the understanding of psychology is void. <br/><br/>Trying to work my way through this at 58 ain&#39;t easy everyday, and it took a burnout to learn this. 2024-11-25T06:49:16Z
