@cheurosis willpower and motivation are nearly always negatively impacted by adhd and depression. But it’s like snowflakes - every person’s situation/diagnosis is unique to their neurology and their environment, and it’s usually complicated. However, there is lots of help too and small changes like taking vitamin supplements, getting good sleep and exercise etc. can also really help. I would not be afraid to talk to your counselor - it is such a common problem that I am sure they will have had many other students ask for similar help and advice. btw my daughter is hugely social and also has a NVLD. Learning differences are all individual too - you can have some traits and not others of just one or several different “disabilities.”
