Current mood: "Heck if I know what I'm doing, but gosh darn it, I'm gonna do whatever it is well"

I never thought it would be so nice to remember I have a mental disorder lol.
To clarify, I have ADHD, and there's a lot more to it than just being hyper and stuff, like not being able to start tasks, sleep problems, weird mood swings, and a bunch of other things that I have really big issues with.
What I'm trying to say is that I feel better knowing that I have something actively weighing me down and making it way harder to go about daily life, but I'm still doing pretty ok. Sure my grades aren't the best, and I'm late a lot, but I've still been able to take AP classes and pass them. And I'm still able to get back up and keep going even just a little bit at a time.
It is really frustrating though when my parents (especially my mom who doesn't really understand it) try to force me past my limits that I'm exhausted from trying to push through. I'll get to the point where I am physically incapable of doing more homework, and she will insist on sitting right next to me until I finish, which stresses me out A LOT and doesn't actually help.
Anyways it's a lot better for me to know that I have something else that I have to deal with that a lot of people don't and I'm still able to be moderately successful. When it's not a depressy day, I'm able to realize that I'm not weak for struggling with a thing, I would be weak if I just gave up on everything and stopped trying to do anything at all. But I haven't done that yet so I think I'm doing pretty good.
If you're struggling in any way, just know that you're doing fine and that sometimes simply existing is hard some days, but you're still pushing through despite that. That's something that defines strength. You may not feel it, but you are strong. You'll be able to get through what you're going through, and you'll be able to look back and look at how far you've gone and it'll be something you'll be proud of.
I hope you people have a great day!
SpoilerThis is a bit of a rant just to get some thoughts out, Idk why, but I felt like saying some things that have helped me feel better about myself in the hopes that I could help y'all.
SpoilerJust ignore my nonlinear writing structure

Honestly I feel the same way lol, I'm not officially diagnosed with an anxiety disorder but when it comes down to the facts the chances are pretty likely that I have one. In middle school I thought I was just a weak/ bad person. It was so relieving to realize there really wasn't anything wrong with me as a person.
We just gotta do our best, we don't need to be perfect.

I think I'm doing a lot better today
I'm not really feeling awful about myself, just about school and parents and things...
So basically the same things, but I'm in a good enough mental state that some progress might be made today
And I have seminary today for the first time this school year, so hooray!
Anyway, you're all cool and I hope everyone who reads this has a great day.
(and people who don't read this too)
