You've already got some good advice but in no particular order:

  1. You are much more articulate than a lot of people. You can read and write better than a lot of people.

  2. You've been at least emotionally and physically abused

  3. You know how to work hard.

  4. ADHD is somewhat treatable with medication, at least improvable.

What that translates to:

  1. no it isn't too late, especially if you keep working hard.

  2. the things you blame yourself for likely isn't your fault. Therapy, when you can afford it, should be a priority.

  3. working hard is so important for employment. Most jobs don't require high intelligence. Working hard with a good attitude and working with people is so much more important for most careers.

  4. learning disabilities suck. ADHD is hard. You can still learn coping mechanisms and find ways or a career that fits better with it.

Life is hard. It's harder for you than most. It can still be worth living, but it will be up to you to find a way. I think you can.

It might just be the picture, but it looks like if anything the tie washes out a little too much relative to the shirt.

This is a very meta unpopular opinion...

Also, it is wrong. And unpopular. So I need to up vote?

Neither one has a goatee though

If it makes you feel better they're super shitty to their paying customers too.

You may be able to get in at an electric utility, preferably public power or a co-op. They tend to need both low and high voltage electricians and engineers.

But it's not supposed to be literal!

(unless I say it is)

Right up until the day they're bought out by shitheads, that's the place to go for setting up a home build.

It verifies compatibility to a level you'd never even think of, including heatsink and graphics card dimensions.

I think I vehemently disagree with you on principle, but it's a point I hadn't thought of before, so thank you for pointing out that perspective.

Also... fuck the cobbled together mess that is English.

Edit: some of it is regional pronunciations too

Good things can come from bad decisions, and bad things can come from good decisions.

The existential questions come up regardless. Either way you ask yourself why, what's the point, if you matter, if anything matters. And the answer is always no reason and something extremely important, there is no point and the point is because someone cares, you and everything matters but also not at all and certainly not to the universe.

And that's ok.

Try something like Wyndly. Same stuff that's in the shots, just sublingual. Have to do it every day, but can do it at home.
