    Not accurate at all.

    I never face my problems, no matter how big they are 😎

      It’s remarkable how far one comes with that strategy, especially early in life

      Homework and learning for exams is for the neurotypical

        Homework — sure, not gonna argue with that.

        Learning? I object. I know I’m not alone in the neurodiverseiverse when I say that learning is my one unwavering hobby / passion. Every time I become fixated on a new subject the goal is always to learn everything about it. I might go as far as to say that learning is the main thing that makes life seem slightly meaningful, myself. Being ND, I just can’t manage to ever maintain focus long enough to become an expert or a specialist on any one thing but I have gained a general knowledge of a ton of random things instead.

        I know a little about a lot of things, not a lot about one or a few things.

          It’s different when you are actually interested in something vs you are forced to gobble up and regurgitate information.

          I was referring to learning for the sole purpose of passing an exam. I love learning too, but I didn’t learn for most exams for a long time - It didn’t matter which topic it was, being told to digest a topic I didn’t choose was demotivating enough.

        I had a parent nagging the shit out of me to study and do homework plus fear of that very parent. Then came college. ☠️ I still get stressed thinking about it. That was in the late 80s.
