Literally hate my ADHD brain. I put everything off to the last minute. I make careless mistakes. Blah blah blah.
See my thread this morning about this amazing course/ job I found. I finally managed to submit my application with minutes to spare.
Well there was two opportunities, both highly competitive.
The last one; I've spent all night perfecting my personal statement. Finish it all and go to submit to UCAS. It asks me if I'm sure I want to submit without attachments. I see that there are multiple application forms I have to submit; the personal statement isn't even needed.
I quickly email them, not thinking and lying saying it won't let me attach the files. I wish I just told them the truth. I've never used my ADHD as an excuse before, but it would have been better than bloody computer problems. There's no way they'll let me submit tomorrow, is there? Especially as I've submitted a (really good) personal statement, so disregarding the instructions.
They won't be in until Monday at the earliest, so I'm not sure if it's even worth spending the day doing the application forms tomorrow and emailing them in?
The other one is the one I really want, but both have 200 applicants for 20 places, so I've halfed my chances.
Can't stop crying. This opportunity would have changed mine and my DDs life. I wish my brain worked normally. Even medicated, I still can't function like a normal person.
