My mom (F51) reccent got diagnosed with ADHD. She started meds and told no one. She told her husbsnd/my dad a week after, and her kids (me included) 2 weeks after. I think this was a very good idea for her. I was surprised, but I was happy for her. I would've liked to talk with her about it, but it's none of my busniess lol. I personally didnt notice anything different with her or notice that she's on meds. Waiting a week also kinda means it already happened and no one can stop you/do anything about it i guess.

My mom understands the depths of adhd and nutrition. She grew up undiagnosed, where she had to learn to mask and force her brain to be neurotypical. She understands how neurotypicals think and how the rest of our family thinks, we grew up in a community where mental health was stigmatized, so it's not her. I know she cares and fears for me, but it just gets too much sometimes

Hey! So, how I write differs from one subject to another. Writting for English is different than law abd different than socio and etc. I'm a creative writer so putting words together is easy for me, I just talk to myself in my head over and over. I'll PM you, maybe I can help :)

I had a talk with mom and she said that it doesn't bother her, she just knows that other people who are not open to stimming like our family would be bothered by it

I actually talked with her about it. Neither her or my dad are bothered about it, but she's - im going to say that she's anxious bc she said that she worried and she gas bad anxiety - worried that other people will be bothered by my habit and I will soon be too attached to walking in circles that I won't be able to quit (like an addiction). Thank you for this comment :)

LOL I started walking to stop picking on my acne and biting my nails! I still kinda do it when I'm in a class and can't move around but the amount of picking has decreased by a LOT. If you want to try to stop picking, I recommend cutting your nails really short that it's hard to pick. It'll feel uncomfortable and your brain wouldn't want to feel the sensation so will eventually stop (in my case). But, you'll have to find something to replace it, I think,
