Hi @horsecrazy4eva @Jynx @AFK @tyme @Shaz51 

Sorry I haven't been in this discussion thread for ages; life has been a lot -- unexpected foster cats, infected tooth, my sister coming to stay... 

 

What you said is so relatable, horsecrazy4eva. Things I've been doing for decades before being diagnosed with ADHD, like answering a question that someone else was asking, jumping from task to task, and forgetting what I went shopping for while buying a bunch of other things ๐Ÿ˜†:face_with_rolling_eyes:  

 

I'm not sure that I've found the best meds (or maybe the best dose?) yet, as I only started on ADHD meds four months ago, but feeling a bit more clear-headed is a good start.

And I want to keep working on strategies for boosting my strengths and managing my weaknesses as an ADHDer -- pills & skills together ๐Ÿ™‚ 

 

Some of the things I like about my neurodivergence are: having lots of interests, being playful with words and accents, finding it easy to come up with lots of different ways to approach solving a problem (more with practical things than with my own emotions)
