There’s a dilemma with ADHD: the ‘symptoms’ are issues that everybody faces. The things we struggle to do, or to stop doing, are not weird, unique, or out of the ordinary. The difference between my neurotypical friends and me is the frequency and intensity of the symptoms.
“You say you misplaced your keys this morning? Lucky you. I used to misplace them pretty much every morning, afternoon, and evening.” I just assumed that was normal. Then, when I was diagnosed, I learned that it is NOT normal. It was MY normal.
Everybody on the planet struggles to some degree with focus, restlessness, memory, etc., which means It’s easy for people to dismiss ADHD. That’s good news for us. It means there are already lots of simple, common tools, strategies, and life-hacks to help. However, some common organizing strategies are uncommonly helpful for ADHD.
