Mrs. California   Thank you for your question and welcome to ADHDCentral.com.   First, congrats on all that you have accomplished!   Some people with ADHD function better in a structured environment and it is possible that you have found both college and law school to be structured enough for you to manage your studies. In addition, many people with ADHD find it easier to focus, sometimes to the point of hyperfocusing, when they are highly interested in something. It is possible this may also have contributed to your success in college and law school.   At this point in your life, you may be more responsible for maintaining your own motivation and organization, instead of having it structured through class responsibilities.   Organization and time management are often challenges for adults with ADHD. I have provided some links to further information that may be helpful:   ADHD at Work   10 Coping Mechanisms for Thriving With Adult ADHD   ADHD in Women   Workplace Accommodations for Adults with ADHD   Overwhelmed, Overcome and Over It!   I wasn't sure exactly what problems you are currently experiencing so I have provided some general information for adults with ADHD. I hope this information helps.   Please let me know how it is going.   Eileen
