Apropos to this entire topic, I must admit I knew nothing about ADHD until I started reading your posts. What an incredibly difficult way to function and what a relief for you to finally know it's not YOU. I can't imagine doing things the way you have been literally forced to do them. In retrospect I can now see that several people I have worked for most probably were ADHD and not just out to drive me crazy LOL I think this "blog" (or howsoever it is defined - web site?) would be very helpful and instructional to people living with people who are ADHD -
I would love for all people who do not have ADHD to be able to understand what it’s like inside our minds. I hope that a lot of Neuro typical people can find this and understand others in their lives!
I have been saying that I realized that I don’t have anxiety and depression. I have ADHD, which causes me to be anxious and depressed. Also, I treated myself to a really pretty wallet and that helped. Highly suggest. Two thumbs up.
Oh I love my purse! I've had it for nearly 10 years. I need to know that every card is in the exact place its supposed to be! Can't think about organising a new one!
Thank you for this wonderfully honest, raw share Vanessa. Our stories are so similar - I'm so glad to have come across your writing. I recently wrote my own piece on Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria called the 4-Step RSD Survival Guide. As someone living with RSD I would love be curious to hear how it lands for you if you have a few minutes to give it a read :) https://substack.com/home/post/p-146983852?r=38b92l&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

OMG- I have this exact same thing with my purse and cards. Yet another thing I just put down to anxiety and never considered it might be RSD related.😕
