I went to high school in the early 1990s and I struggled more than I was willing to admit because I didn't understand what was going on with me back then. College was even worse because of how quickly they go through course materials.

i am so sorry i can't even imagine how difficult that must have been especially without a diagnosis! even though i only graduated from high school recently, it was such a huge struggle getting through and not understanding why everything was so difficult for me. it sucks the education system still isn't more accommodating but i'm sure it was more bearable for me...

@@beyondthespectrumpodcast Thank you for your kind reply. I am currently applying for disabilities and have asked for an Autistic evaluation as part of the application. Hopefully I will at least find out if I am Autistic or not. Working retail sales was even worse, especially working on Black Fridays. They were the worst!

I went from A-B student most of time depending on school system then in 9th doing worse and worse till being sent to alternative high school senior year, got diploma but barely. Went to college on loans working full time living alone or with GF towards the end, flunked out senior year, wasn't able to handle workload. Loans required a halftime schedule, i feel that if they allowed me to just do one class a semester i could have finished. I've never really recovered from that, 10 years ago now. I would have been homeless once in 2022 if not for my 1 friend or my mom. Is tough out here.

Talking to you would be nice. I'm unemployed and struggling, myself.
