i'm trying to write my college essay, and i can't focus for my life. My ADD gets 100x when stress comes into the picture. Getting ready for college applications is horrible, just thought i'd vent to someone who can relate. Very frustrating!
Was this seriously 3 years ago for me? No … augh. So old. I definitely remember it though and it’ll just repeat itself next year for grad school … Positive spin on it? ADD gives you something WAY unique to add to your essay! If you’re comfortable with sharing it with the admissions people and you’re really honest about it while you’re writing, talking about your ADD can show how you face difficulties and overcome them every single day. Colleges want to know that you have what it takes to make it at their university. Show them that yeah, ADD gives you a headache and a butt load of problems sometimes, but you’ve STILL managed to come out on top.
Hold on sweetie, it’s a hectic ride … but it’s loads of fun.
