Rude awakening, I hope you don't take any of the following as me trying to tell you how to run your life I am just sharing my experience, strength, and hope. I was misdiagnosed with ADHD because of some of the same symptoms that you described in your post, it wasn't until I went to a PDr. to get to the cause of the deep depression that I was suffering through. It wasn't until then, that I found I was actually Bipolar II which in the hypomania stage it could mimic the inattention that I showed in school. I also have a fairly high IQ which is common in those who have Bi-Polar II. Being intelligent is just the ability to acquire knowledge at a higher level, it did not mean I was smarter, I was just able to figure things out quickly, and adapt to any situation. Because of me thinking I could find out all about what was controlling my ability to function, I could figure out a way to fix it myself. Because of this site I was able to find what I really needed, by going to a PDr. who is professional, and it was through his help that I was finally able to find some relief from my self imposed misery. I am still working on the process, it is slow but I can feel progress is being made.
