I have the same issues with being told to apply myself. It's a common story for people in the 95-99th percentile regardless of whether or not there is an ailment holding them back. I am not trying to reduce what people are going through, but I just think this is not the point of variation. Maybe experiences around not being able to earn money at work due to concentration issues are a bigger differentiator (I don't know).
But I understand why people have an achilles heel about certain aspects of their life that they have been scolded about constantly. I have those issues too but in certain areas I overcame them entirely like in academics.
