minus-squareCylusthevirus@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoI got diagnosed with ADHD at 40 but up till now I’d just assumed I was a bad lazy person who’s badness at life was the reason for all of my various problems. Stuff like this has me wondering if … perhaps I was not just awful and lazy all the time?
