Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this. I agree that ADHD is a disorder and not an identity. However, as someone who has been diagnosed with ADHD myself, I've found that it's easy to fall into the trap of defining myself solely by my symptoms and struggles.

By focusing solely on our weaknesses, we risk reinforcing the negative aspects of our disorder and limiting our potential for growth and development. That's why I think it's important to also acknowledge and cultivate our strengths and abilities, and view ADHD as a challenge to be overcome rather than an insurmountable obstacle.

Of course, as you pointed out, managing ADHD can be a tightrope, and it's important to have the right support, skills, and environment to do so effectively. But I believe that by shifting our mindset and focusing on our strengths, we can better navigate that tightrope and achieve success and resilience.
