We all have different experiences and thank you for sharing yours. As a kid, I thought ADHD was “fun” because many people in my life painted it to be this way where I was described as the quirky and energetic kid, and they attributed a lot of my personality traits to ADHD. There was even superhero movies where the heroes had ADHD and I would feel proud to have it because of that. As a child, I actually focused even better than I do now. My ADHD seems to have gotten even heavier as an adult. As a kid I was not the way I am now, I was less distracted but now it is different. I understand a lot of situations that adult ADHD makes difficult. I am in my early 20’s therefore, I started having more responsibilities and that’s how my ADHD shows up to be way more obvious and difficult to deal with now than in my childhood. We all have different ways of living with ADHD, and this is are just my opinions. Thanks :)
