    I understand how you feel. I was diagnosed with a condition six months before completing college, and things started to improve significantly once I began taking the right medication and learned helpful techniques like the Pomodoro method.

    I used to believe I was dumb compared to my classmates, as they seemed to effortlessly understand the course material while I struggled. This led to feelings of inadequacy and low self-esteem.

    However, realizing that my brain works differently has been a healing experience. I now understand that there’s nothing inherently wrong with me; I simply need to approach things in a different way to succeed.
