incredible work here—as someone who also got an ADHD diagnosis two years ago, i empathize with the feelings of constant scatter. thank you for bringing that struggle to the fore in your work and for the unabashed honesty—it matters a lot. you perfectly encapsulate the hurricane of emotions, and the occasional guilt in feeling as if you aren’t giving those emotions enough attention. its helping me see i’m not alone in that struggle.

Thank you, my friend. You are definitely not alone. I often feel so, too, but your openness helps me see I’m not. Because ADHD is frequently a punchline thrown around haphazardly, people don’t realize the severity of the struggle and how it impacts every area of your life. I see you—and your struggle is valid.
