more adhd ranting below

I'm starting to come to terms with the fact that I might be on the "severe" side of the ADHD spectrum and tbh that's pretty scary.

obviously there's a lot of stuff in my life that's made setting permanent habits hard. I've been moving jobs and houses virtually nonstop since...age 18? that's kryptonite to a neurodivergent person. not to mention all the rest that's taken place along with it.

but when I look at the course of my life, and compare the effort I expend with my overall ability to function...there's a bit of a canyon there. And that's scary. It's scary for your best to be so far from "good enough" that you question if you're ever going to be able to be a fully-fledged person, even with meds.

anyways I'm not an r/antinatalist edgelord anymore and I swear eugenicism is bad but tbh there's about a hundred reasons my parents should've thought twice about my conception and the fact that they *both* have severe ADHD is one of them.
