This precious Doctor sure did prove his teacher and the others wrong.

[@karenacton3854]

Eating a lot of crow! I truly hope those that said those things about him watched this…..to see how wrong they were!

[@khonkhosilelihle7414]

Which is awesome.

[@Rietu]

For sure! I remember my teacher told me I "wouldn't even smell a C" on the science GCSE exam and wanted to put me on the basic exam instead. My parents had to sign a waiver saying they understood that it wasn't on the school if I failed and put me in for the advanced exam. I got As on the GCSE. I sometimes wonder, now I'm an adult, whether that teacher told me what he did because he knew I could do better and wanted to activate my stubborn mode, or if he really did think I was just going to do badly... I like to think it was the first...

[@WSH3TM]

I mean yeah but not by a considerable amount since doctors in the UK only get £14 an hour and the NHS is in a shambles right now

[@anneominous7172]

My English teacher told me I'd amount to nothing. I dropped out of school at 13 and I was a published author by 17. You really shouldn't put too much stock in what others tell you. It's useful to take note of, occasionally, but the reality is that nine tenths of people really barely register anything outside of how it pertains to their own subjective experience and understanding of the world. Empathy is supposed to be the thing that separates us from other animals but regrettably few humans seem to actually possess it.

This boy will go far, his mother is amazing.

[@iona5439]

I’m 23 with autism, I ended up failing GCSE’s because everyone expected so much from me as I was a gifted child I was so burnt out by the time I was a teenager things and expectations were thrown at me from different angles. I’m retaking them now but it’s so hard to even find/get a job, I hope one day I won’t have to worry anymore. And I didn’t have any support network from anyone.

[@countesscable]

I’m stunned that the Doctor has ADD: I’m retired now, but my life has been blighted with by what I now is ADD and Aspergers after being diagnosed in my 50’s. I really can’t imagine how he managed to study for exams.

[@Ann-sj4pt]

It’s possible never give up! I have an art degree i have ASD,my daughter has a law masters,she has dyslexia ,and shows many traits of ADHD.All the best ❤

[@GalacticRadioNoise]

I'm 48 and was diagnosed with ADD and ASD last year. I struggled with work and relationships and was always at the bottom rung of the career ladder. Prescribed Medication for ADD since diagnosis has been life-changing for me. I'm now (finally!) able to start building my career, and luckily my workplace has seen my potential and has been supportive. Medication doesn't work for everyone, but it can often help greatly with focus. It's never too late :)

[@littlebigkicker]

​@@GalacticRadioNoiseI have add since I was 5 Been on meds till my 30s finally I said it's bothering me so no more meds 😅 but I agree it's not for everyone at all including the side effects

[@Imagimary]

I have ADD and a PhD. It’s possible. Just takes a lot of additional effort.

[@countesscable]

I was always in the top stream at school, and the teachers were always baffled why I did so badly with numbers. I didn’t know at the time that I was any different to my peers, only that I couldn’t make sense with numbers. The only way that I can work with them at all is to make numbers into colours and patterns, and I didn’t know that was not normal. I cannot take in information at first, it has to be repeated over and over again until a sort of muscle memory kicks in. This has blighted my life as I know people are losing patience, so I always pretend to understand and go away and try to make sense of it. It has been a really bad struggle to cope not understanding, and the embarrassment in front of people. I’ve been on ant-depressants most of my life. I’m anxious and avoid people. I have retired now and I can feel myself reverting back to my safe inside, not having to pretend, not having to constantly, watch people and fit in, not wonder what the right thing to say is. I know people have always thought I’m weird. It’s horrible.

Wow, I so glad that he is ok and his eyesight wasn't damaged. James is a sweet heart, so articulate and talented. His Mother is amazing and so supportive, she's a beautiful person

[@MariaFilatovaLondon]

I've got dyslexia and was constantly told throughout my childhood that I'm stupid. I cried a lot back then and felt humiliated. Well, it didn't prevent me from getting a degree, learning a foreign language and moving to another country (but, let's face it, later on I needed quite a lot of psychotherapy to recover from that trauma). Yeah, I need to work harder than the people around me, but I learned to work harder and not give up. Currently, I can even combine a full-time job and an art side hustle and feel more successful and fulfilled than most of my neurotypical classmates!

"Neurodiversity hangs together" I'm autistic and i love this

[@crptpyr]

Yeah, a lot of more recent studies show that it's more of a communication difference than a communication deficit. People with autism struggle to communicate with neurotypicals, and it goes both ways. But people with autism and ADHD tend to communicate better with one another. The majority of my friends have autism or ADHD just because I find that it's a lot easier to communicate with them.

OMTG - so glad it was a static arrow! If it had been fired the outcome would have been so much worse 😬

[@rooroo9216]

He walked into one that was stuck in the target, it’s one of the most common archery injuries, happened to someone on a competition recently here. Its mostly caused by people not following instructions, being reckless or distracted and walking directly at the target into the arrows instead of along the side when they’re close to it. The video didn’t explain it too well.

[@UnimportantAcc]

​@@rooroo9216 nurse fella said "I've got a 15 y.o who has lent forward onto a static arrow" I understand WALKING into an arrow, but this is just a case of an autistic child harming themselves, not really related to archery safety at all!

[@rooroo9216]

@@UnimportantAcc well I mean I guess it could be, but leaning your eye at an arrow seems a bit extreme, that would be agonising wouldn’t it?

[@UnimportantAcc]

@@rooroo9216 certainly would be very painful indeed, however the nurse would not have described it in that manner unless he was told that directly by the patient themselves or somebody that witnessed the incident

[@krashd]

@@UnimportantAcc It was clearly still accidental, he has likely been up looking at the target and leant in to inspect something without noticing a protruding arrow, or he knew the arrow was there and just misjudged his lean. I did the exact same thing and got the exact same injury when I was his age, except I was leaning in to a fence to look at a bee and didn't notice a metal rod protruding from it (the fence, not the bee). Stabbing that eye is one of the worst pains I've ever experienced, it was so painful and so immediately crippling, you instinctively clench both eyes shut tightly to the point that you hear blood sloshing around in your ears like white noise, so it's as if your two most important senses are going haywire initially. You ever want to stop a bad guy just fuck up one of their eyes - they won't continue the fight like you see in the movies.

Great Job James! So glad everything turned out ok. You are blessed. Good luck in the future writing and telling wonderful and exciting stories. Look forward to reading them and watching the movies they make from your creative mind. Take care!!

I was told at school that I would only be a laborer, well my first job was a tractor driver. I went onto to drive all kinds of earth mover, including tunnel boring machines. I retired after a career of working in 10 countries as a Senior Inspector of Works. The doctor also proved the point, never pre judge. James will also prove he has it in him just waiting to burst out. So glad it turned out to be a minor injury.

[@piangfuann]

Archery is a very safe sport. If done at a club and everyone listens to the safety instructions. I am an archer and autistic. I can say that archery is a very safe sport. Also always stand at the side of the target when you pull arrows. At first I thought it would be someone shooting in the garden.

[@TinyScorpion44]

As a kid, my mom was told I would likely never drive a car. The psych called it "perceptual communication disorder," which I was never told, and she refused an IEP for me at school. 20 years later, a friend asked if I was autistic which led to cracking open my childhood psych eval and finding out all of this had been hushed up. I'd spent 24 years of my life believing I was stupid and a failure. Turns out I'm just autistic. And as luck would have it, I own 4 cars, one of which I race, and I work in an auto repair shop. Weird Italian cars ended up as my biggest special interest, which means this "stupid girl" who would never drive has dedicated her life to driving. I don't think I could ever be an ER doctor, I'll stick to broken cars😂

I'm ADD and learning disabled. My 6th grade special ed teacher told me that I'd never succeed at anything, and I should just give up, because I'd fail at anything I tried. I've wanted to be a doctor, but I've only made it to AEMT. I'm 38 years old now, but wonder what I could have accomplished, had I had a better education. And to have a better education, I think I would've have needed better educators, that could've found a way to teach me so that I enjoyed learning. In college, I enjoyed learning, but my high school grades were not sufficient for me to pursue college courses that would lead to what I want to do. I want to advance, but I'm unsure how to do it. :(
