      Yes, although it should be noted that one of the trickier parts of ADHD is most people have at least some traits of it, especially when they’re younger. It’s why our memes are so relatable.

      Still get checked if you’re thinking it.

      Or, you can do what I did and wait 45 years before getting diagnosed and then spend the next 5 years being just as productive as the previous 45 combined (yay adderall!)

        that feeling when your meds kick in for the first time and you realize all these other fucking assholes have been living like this their whole lives and never told you.

          I finally got medication for my anxiety. You mean to tell me my jaw hurting half way through the day due to clenching isn’t normal? My shoulder blades aren’t supposed to cover my ears. Almost 20 years of bullshit. I hope I get diagnosed for my probable ADHD soon.
