I'm in this picture and I don't like it.

Heh, you and me both, friend. I'm alternating between emails and lemmy, it seems to ease the pain a bit.

This was my daughter trying to do math, poor thing. Just a long line of ADHD in our family tree.

I feel her pain. I remember trying to hide tears in math class cause I was SO frustrated with myself and the subject.

We did online school, so I got to see the tears in person, sadly. Much breaks and online videos were had those days.

Thankfully she’s doing much better in her teen years on meds. Qelbree was a miracle drug after the three weeks of nausea and exhaustion wore off, lmao. Oi.

I'm so glad she is doing better now. She is lucky to have supportive parents who got her the help she needed :)

Funnily enough, just last week I got an email where I think they pictured me doing this. Instead two entire programs are about to be ground to a halt for potentially 6 months lol. So they ended up needing to do this.
