A helpful account of the authors "autism/ADHD" journey. How she was able to "mask" her differences because of her academic successes until LIFE overwhelmed her and she got diagnosis and help.

It's a positive account that highlights the importance of self acceptance, diagnosis, and seeking help. Trying to "be normal" all the time is exhausting and inevitably ends in failure.

If you are struggling, seek help. It can change/save your life.

On a personal ask for the author, I am curious about the medication you are using. I manage my own neurochemistry with nootropics after years of trial and error. I am always curious what pills they push on Autistics and peoples accounts of them.
