@simonv @Kwakigra @LadyButterfly Certainly is for me. I'm doing it right now 😭I've heard stories of people who need or want to do a thing & just...get up & go do it...?
@clarkiestar @Kwakigra @LadyButterfly Yes, that will be fascinating! I hope you report back.
@clarkiestar @Kwakigra @LadyButterfly I occasionally wonder how my life would be different if my mother had the resources & wisdom available that we do now. I'm 100% sure she meant well, but damn she left me with a lot of damage.Props to you for doing the work!
@clarkiestar @Kwakigra @LadyButterfly My understanding is that ADHD is highly heritable, so if you have it, likely she does, too.And of course, with "command resistance"(?) layered on top, being told to do/not do something just makes it even harder.I'm •still• recovering from the trip my mother laid on me about that, 40+ years later. Maybe Dani's image above will provide an entry point for a more productive conversation!
@clarkiestar @Kwakigra @LadyButterfly Right? Like effing daily. Hourly.We've heard of the modern Prometheus?This is the modern Sisyphus, except that the rock never reaches the top, & is forever rolling downhill....
@Kwakigra @LadyButterfly Dani Donovan has brilliantly illustrated executive dysfunction you describe. (As it happens, this describes...most of my waking life, actually.)
