Having ADHD is like walking through waist-length thick, thick grass and occasionally getting tangled in jungle vines while everyone else strolls across a cut lawn.

Just wondering how old people were when they discovered they had ADHD. I am 58 and I have found out more about myself and why I feel the way I do which is an eye opener. I think my dad may also have ADHD and he is 87. I don’t know if it’s something that he would be interested in but he does have some of the “traits” I just wondered if there are people older than 87 who have just discovered themselves.

Just finished all 3 sections of my ADHD Snapshot. I've been struggling to fit into, and work well at systems that apparently are designed for people with different brains and patterns. So getting real for me means allowing myself permission to stop pretending that I should have been able to make systems designed for differently abled and functioning people, work for me. Like someone color blind being in charge of color photo editing? A different job is needed, not just more 'discipline' 'concentration' and pep talks. Can we find the jobs, the callings, that suit us, and not feel guilty for not fitting in to the others? There are things fish can do, and places they can go, that the monkeys can't. The monkeys do well in their zones. Fish can flourish in theirs. ... still in the process of accepting that I am, actually, a fish.

Section 2 of my Snapshot just named something I've been carrying: grief. Hmm. It also pointed out that 'the slow, deep, meandering way my brain works, the very thing I've been fighting against, might actually be the same quality that makes me good at what I most want to do'. Not sure exactly where this is going. The prompts asked what has my adhd cost me... that unconvered some grief. But in this section I was also able to notice a yearning to provide a deep and kind and accepting space for others... that I have wanted for myself. I'm wondering how being 'slow, deep and meandering' can be helpful? I suppose being slow means allowing people's hearts to emerge without pressure. hmm. 'Meandering' doesn't sound useful though.
