Good advice, thanks. I am not ruling out medication, but I would hesitate to put one of my kids on it if they were diagnosed and so I am hesitant for the same reasons. The reason I’d like a diagnosis though is that I am pathologically unable to act without data. I’d feel like a complete imposter at an ADHD event unless I was sure I was one of the ranks.
Perish such thoughts. None of us cares to ensure your "adhd purity". If you feel you find value from adhd coping mechanisms, then you are welcome to the knowledge
thanks, I do appreciate it. it's a me problem though that I'm working on.
part of it is I suffered a brain injury last year and I'm still unsure if my faculties are fully intact.
Believe it or not most people with adhd are pretty accepting of other people. I've never seen anybody with adhd try to gatekeep.
I hope you find what you're looking for :)
I do believe it, more self critical than anything but I'm working on it :)
The more the merrier!
Funny, this is pretty common in people with ADHD or neurodivergents in general.
