Could I borrow your ability to productively function for 3-5 years? I need to clean up a decade of wasted time real quick

Trust me, you don't want this. It took me 15 years to finish my degree. I was diagnosed in my last semester right before the pandemic started after having a mental breakdown and subsequent year of therapy. It turns out it wasn't (clinical) anxiety and depression, it was ADHD.
