dash_jackson@lemmy.ca 3 weeks agoYeah idk I think if you’re in academia you should be able to produce a five paragraph essay. Being able to produce a narrative is an essential life skill. The world isn’t going to cater to your self diagnosed executive dysfunction forever so learning to adapt is probably a useful habit.

So, K-12 is “academia” now?
Lots of essential life skills are difficult for lots of people. Something we get reminded about every time it comes up by people who have no clue what they’re talking about yet see fit to tell others what they should and shouldn’t do, and how to feel about it.
No fucking shit.
I’m sorry Dr. Jackson, I’ll have to let my old neurologist, psychologist, neuropsychologist, and psychiatrist know that The Internet told me that the assessments I had done at ages 23 and 44 are all in my head.
You’re right! I’m just going to do that instead of being in constant psychological agony. Where were you all of my life? ❤️ If only I had someone talking down to me saying Just Do The Thing over and over again, from childhood onwards, life would have been so much easier.
