    Yep. Like I’ve got two options- look like I’m paying attention, or actually pay attention. Both is not an option. But apparently I just need to concentrate more. Ugh.

      I remember my teachers yelling at me to stop doodling and playing with my pens. As soon as I stopped I would lose focus on what they said. I had a teacher that would actually encourage me to doodle and would call my name before changing chapter in the lesson to make sure I knew I had to pay attention again. I aced his class when I was failing before. Learning with ADHD, the teacher matters more than the subject.
