>was smart in high school, gifted program, 143 iq, 35 ACT, took AP physics C and multivariate calc senior year, etc etc
>didn't want to go to school so worked dead end jobs for 3 years, spent spare time smoking weed, playing vidya and watching tv
>finishing up first semester of engineering school, feel fucking retarded. my time management skills are shit, focus is ADHD tier, generally just feel stupid and slow, getting B grades in classes I should probably ace
I miss being razor sharp and able to crank out schoolwork just like that. I used to solve puzzles on stack exchange and read for fun. Now I read slow and have poor retention. Anyone have experience getting your intellectual capacity back after wasting it away?
