A few thoughts:
1) Meds are a tool(s) in your kit-bag to succeed. If you don’t use the tools, then you’re shorting yourself and making life harder than it need be.
2) in my case, while I have a relatively hi IQ, and I love science and physics and computer stuff, trying to study it is akin to taking a huge sleeping pill – I can’t focus nor recall anything I need to when I need to. I have adjusted my career to less challenging things, and while not ideal, it pays the bills and it’s somewhat rewarding for me.
Hope this rambling is a bit of help, god luck in your studies, Jim
