As someone with ADHD, the author’s issues sound very much like ADHD. I have yet to hear of someone who has a “lack of discipline” to this degree who does not have ADHD. I used quotes because the concept of discipline is also very relative.
I have yet to hear of anyone being told by a medical professional that they don’t have ADHD but instead simply lack self-discipline. Yet probably many people become depressed or feel hopeless because of comments like this.

- lannisterstark 3y ago>I have yet to hear of anyone being told by a medical professional that they don’t have ADHD but instead simply lack self-discipline. So you're saying that everyone who feels like this who goes to a medical professional, 100% of the people, will get told they have ADHD?
- danielfoster 3y agoWell obviously not, since ADHD is not the only mental health disorder that could cause the symptoms being discussed here.
