Can't Get Unstuck
Taking a break from the pervy stuff to say that I'm late 40's and just can't get over the hump to finish the things I need to. I'm taking courses and only 4 classes away from my degree but I can't bring myself to do any of the work. I was in an IT group and couldn't bring myself to do the work.
I think I've always had ADHD and it's getting worse. I've cruised through previous classes because they were set up in a way that I could glide through without using much brain power, but in a position where I have to really study to understand the material? It's a struggle. Maybe I never really learned how to study, but behind and getting buried just makes it all the more worse.
I do work full time and have a family and many nights, I don't get a good chance to study until it's late and I'm half tired. I make average American income in a decent house on the check to check hamster wheel. My job is miserable and I need to finish my studies if I'm going to improve my income and life.
The funny thing is my kid has ADHD and I have to ride them for the same thing and the hypocrisy eats me up knowing I have work I'm neglecting as well. How can I fuss at a elementary kid when I'm grown and can't even get over the hump? I have my annual check up in a few weeks and I'm going to talk about a referral to get tested and possibly get medication. I was hoping I could get seen before the semester is over so hopefully I can provide them a diagnosis to save the semester but it's looking unlikely.
