imo a perfume that smells like old math geek websites look is "cero" by agar olfactory. it smells uncannily like a cathode ray computer monitor: warm, dusty plastic. it's kind of incredible fr. agarolfactory(.)com/products
Listen, this is fucking incredible and I finally have a decent gift for my younger cousin, who just became chair of his prestigious math department. I was also considered something of a math prodigy for a week or so in the mid-'90s, until it became painfully obvious that I'd used a calculator on the standardized test, and that my real achievement was that I'd made it to 5th grade without actually knowing how to add or subtract.
This is what I imagine would happen if I put on the math perfume and left the house (instead of Tanner beetles, it would be statisticians and research analysts):

Please I am not a robot I swear to god please I'm begging you I just want to download my gay little games please

So, uh, experienced neurodivergents send help please.
I'm 80% sure I have ADHD, so much so that I convinced my mom (who is not so big on Mental Health/Conditions) to get me tested. But the therapist said that I don't have it, but maybe a small dopamine imbalance (isn't that just ADHD? I don't know)
I've given up diagnosis and possible medication, so does anyone here know how to get myself to do things? Maybe I actually don't have ADHD. Maybe I just actually struggle to do things? I don't know. I'm so confused.
My grades are struggling so much, and I'm in my important years of school so I don't wanna mess it up, when I was younger it was so easy, I don't know what happened and now it's spiraling cycle of
"I should study" -> "I can't do it, why not?" -> "I'm overwhelmed and I want to cry" -> "Do test/exam/Assignment or whatever and get bad grade" -> "I should study"
If anyone can help then it's super appreciated, summer holiday is coming which would be a perfect time to try and get myself on course for next year
Thank you to even those who just read through
(Wait, wait, I forgot to mention that I got the idea of having ADHD from reading certain articles and hearing/reading people talk about their experiences and thinking "Too damn relatable" so I'm very much in doubt but also in belief of the fact that I have it )
