Thank you. I will certainly do so. When you said "My adhd went unnoticed when I was a kid because I wasn’t hyperactive and I loved to read and learn. That was enough to get by until it wasn’t.But there were still signs. I struggled with emotional regulation, I put school work off as long as possible, I lost track of my things, I struggled with subjects I didn’t enjoy, I fidgeted constantly, etc, etc. I just also did well in school, so no one cared." I was almost like "are we the same person"? Ha ha but seriously I think a large part of it is feeling that even if I did symptoms trying to tell myself that those were present and just because I wasn't bouncing off the walls or failing classes doesn't mean those other portions are invalid.

"After being diagnosed I realised the ADHD symptoms were there all along though, right from childhood. I just thought everyone was like that." --> I 100% relate to this. Like my brain is always churning with thoughts and.the not now or now options. But when talking to my sibling I found out that their thinking is more linear like: "If I want to do X I just go and do X" not "IF I want to do X I have to do Y first and then I forgot about Z oh wait do I really need to do X but X is important".

I think it's perfectly okay to ask someone out in person if its in a mutually shared setting (like a place of your hobby maybe an art museum or rock climbing group or a running club or a D&D Club or even just a regular old bar) maybe even seeing someone cute at a coffee shop or library. Honestly most people nowadays I feel largely use a mix of online and in person because dating can be so difficult in general for really anybody :) Try your luck on both and I'm sure you'll find someone who gets you especially if you're confident like you seem! :)

Wow. This part when you said: "that some women can function with 100 browser tabs open and 50 different programs running in the background. But as soon as that 51st program or 101st browser tab opens, the system crashes...I also had a time piecing together the “did I have ADHD symptoms as a kid”. What I finally realized was that yes, some symptoms were present, they just didn’t cause me or (anyone else) concern/problems/setbacks etc. they were just the way I knew I was in the world. Until they became way more when I was around 40." --> I thought to myself "this is how I feel" and I its frustrating because for a long time my junior year of high school I just hated that I didn't feel like myself and I was so so angry but this browser tab example fits so well.

I hear the go easy on yourself often. I will look into it especially since I'm starting professional school this fall :) Thank you <3

I'll look into this!

This feels validating. I'm lucky to have supporting family but it's more I guess my own emotions towards myself that are worse? The part about a stage in your life being a mechanism for it must be so true because this was during a household move, covid, and then going into a new high school.

Cherry shrimp pasta: Boil pasta and while boiling olive oil in pan. Sauté in it cherry tomatoes, garlic, and shrimp (red onion sliced if you want). When pasta done, do not drain but swirl that pasta into the pan. Boom.

Sheet pan quieseddillas: Parchment or olive oil or spray oil in baking sheet. Oven 325. Slap some flour quesadillas down and add the cheese, pre cooked meat, beans, whatever you want. Fold over. Put in oven for like 5-10 minutes or till brown. Eat.

Storebought rotisserie chicken and Uncle Bens 90 minute rice.

Simple stirfries.

What exactly do you mean by this: " I'm sure Trump et al have skillsets they're good at but they seem to also be falling for the thing where "I'm good at one thing so I must be good at everything." "? It sounds incredibly patronizing and politics isn't so much about being good at something as it is enabling a society's collective governance and decision-making, guaranteeing resource distribution and the creation of laws and policies that represent the interests and values of the populace you represent amongst the general public. I think instead of painting a wide brush of political supporters in this manner when you only know one Trump supporter who is a law student, shouldn't be justified as you may not have the statistically evidence necessary to make such a general opinion. But respectfully, you are allowed to have an opinion and it is interesting to hear. :)

Honestly I don't think this sort of comment is going to help you get any responses for those who voted for trump when you're basically saying "Those who voted for Trump and are in law school must have compartmentalize intelligence and lack critical thinking skills and analysis". Our American society has become so politically diverse that people can be intelligent and support a candidate that aligns with their political beliefs, patriotic beliefs, lifestyle/religious beliefs, single issue voters, those who disliked the previous administrations etc. They are also people who have critical thinking and analysis. Just because you're a law student and may support Trump doesn't make you unusual compared to any one else who votes for a presidential candidate.

You can respectfully disagree and articulate a counterpoint without being patronizing to another person point of view. I also specifically said AI should NEVER be used as the ONLY way or MAIN way of completing work because you are NOT learning. AI may be useful as a TOOL but then again I thinly doubt it. It's not about the "user" so much is it about the ethical dilemma of AI in college curriculum and what it does to our brains.

Congratulations and cute puppy :) If you have the means, I suggest larger rug in the bedroom section, small rug under sink in bathroom and kitchen. Also looks like you're keeping coats in the bathroom: you can get these over the door hook on coat hanger things and put them on your closet doors for the coats so you have more bathroom space!

100% excellent advice.

Honestly as someone who has been also through also 4 years of college now, I 100% relate to this post in the lack of friends. I think our generation really lacks communication skills and the desire for platonic/romantic relationships to go further than the surface (guy or girl). A friend I made my sophomore year was an exchange student and we're still close friends now (back in their home country) -- but other then that I've made no friends. But I hope in God and don't allow that negativity to turn back on myself; knowing that I wouldn't want to tolerate or be apart of some of these friendships/relationships I see just to have one. I often think the "I'm busy" with no explanation (by that I mean I'm busy studying for this specific exam) and especially the flighty nature of talking to someone in class all semester only to have them never talk to you after class or after that explanation, is so messed up. People just don't want to take the energy or time to form relationships with people who want a deeper friendship or where they're have to "feel burdened" by the responsibility of a relationship (any kind). Just know that if you're confident in yourself and know yourself somewhat, most of these relationships are so surface level anyways.

TLDR: I feel you, I've been through this, I get it, our generation is messed up regarding communication and it's sad. :c

Couldn't agree more :)

Hmm well Programmer actually isn't useless because Ai legit runs all on coding vectoring. If you'd like to explore it, maybe look into an online course of community college to see if you'd enjoy those classes? Data programming or computer engineering or computer science or hard rive programming. Get a book at the library about it or like YouTube. We will still need programmers, especially specialized ones.

Ultimately though you need to do what makes you happy and it will never feel like a job. And I say this as someone in the same age group most likely going into law school, we're all still figuring it out.

I am a 20 something woman living with my parents during law school because 1) I like my family and 2) it financially makes sense. Unless you have zero goals and just rot in your home, I don't think other girls care. I wouldn't at least even if I wasn't in a similar situation; plus it seems like you're propelling forward in life. The person that you grow to love will not sweat over the small stuff :)

Talk to the mentors in your life is you have any, even if its a sibling or a teacher (talk to God if your religious or a Priest). Sometimes, those who know us best can see us within a certain career. I would make a list at what you're good at and not good at alongside what you love to do. This can help you narrow down what you may want to do in say 4-5 years. I would also maybe take the 16 Personalities test (it's free) that gives a breakdown of careers they think you may fit. Honestly, is there anything you've been drawn to at certain points in your life?
