Who else is earning their first degree in 2026? I never thought I would. Growing up with undiagnosed ADHD made it very difficult for me to retain information the way my neurotypical classmates did. Like many others who are left behind due to our outdated diagnostic criteria, I internalized my inability to remember things and it festered into a dislike for classic education. I was always being told to "apply myself" while I felt like I was. This led to me giving up hope of ever earning a degree.
