A Day In The Life: Things I Hear About My ADHD
As requested by @mycupcakedreams14â
âDid you take your medication?âÂ
âI canât believe you forgot again!â
âI bet if you tried hard enough, you could remember. You just donât care.â
âStop saying you CANâT focus! You CAN! Just try!â
âHave you tried exercising and eating right?â
âYou donât need medication; just try meditating or something!â
*a bunch of jokes about my absent-mindedness that make me feel bad*
âWow, youâre so messy lolâ
âADHD isnât real though???â
âADHD is such a benefit, though! You guys are creative!â
*probably another hunter-gatherer analogy*
âI have a friend/family member/partner/whatever with ADHD, and they do just fine in school/at work.â
I have wonderful, supportive friends (some that are also ADHD) that donât really say these kinds of things! I also get things along the lines of:Â
âItâs okay that you forgot! Iâll try to remind you next time!â
âDo you need help with remembering [whatever task]? I can help if you want.â
âIâm here for you if you need anything, itâs okay.â
âWhat can I do to help?â
I love your passion
