Lemmy See Your Wrists

I have, and it is basically exactly that same thing. Being able to switch contexts quickly can sometimes be a superpower.

Similarly, being suddenly interested in learning a new skill very often but always only for a brief amount of time, has allowed me to get a little bit of knowledge of many things. I’m not an expert on anything but I have had so many hobbies and interests that I can easily pick up new things because there’s always some base knowledge to link it to.

Honestly grateful too for everyone here for validating my feelings and making me feel more okay about myself. It has been quite confrontational to realise that what I thought was my identity was actually a disorder, but at the same time quite comforting to know that my struggles are something I can learn to deal with

Samesies! (Sort of, am still on the waiting list.) I used to think: “these stupid “adhd” memes are not specific to ADHD at all, I’m normal and I experience life exactly like this!” Only to realise that not everyone experiences life like this and I am not normal.
