...See more Hey guys, I was 21 when I was first diagnosed with ADHD and now I'm 23. I study Pharmacy and despite it being 4 years since I've started, I'm nowhere close to graduating. I've got 3 exams left until my first state exam (I study in Germany) and I'm on my 3rd try out of 4 for two of these exams. If I failed the 4th try I'd be kicked out and I'd have no chance of continuing pharmacy in Germany. I've always struggled with studying and life in general and I know that studying in my 3rd language is a challenge on its own and I know that I should feel bad for being so slow but I feel so stuck and so demotivated and just terrified of these exams. The goal is right there. I'm so close yet so so far. I just want to know if I'm stupid or something. Is it normal for me to take this long and to struggle this much even after taking ADHD meds? How can I stay motivated and how can I overcome this fear of starting? I feel like I'm going to fail anyways despite how hard I try. Thank you for your time <3
