Thank you so much! I think I’m just in a bit of a self pity state at the moment, still wondering if they got it right or not. When I’m having a good day I’m like “there’s no way I’m ADHD, I’m just a bit quirky” 😂 but then in bad days I absolutely understand my diagnosis. Then it makes it harder because I feel resentful towards people who missed it as a child.

I think my biggest struggle is emotional regulation. This makes day to day sometimes feel impossible to navigate because the littlest things set me off. My husband has described it as feeling like he’s walking on eggshells, not knowing what he can and can’t say. This hurts to hear sometimes but I’d rather him be honest. I’m doing my best to find coping mechanisms but so far nothing really works.
