I'm not ignoring you. These are just the things that are hard to focus on when I'm anxious:

Active listening

Comforting other people

Making decisions

Answering questions

Being present

ADHD isn't just "having too much energy." It's also:

Obsessive behaviors.

Hypersensitivity.

Lack of motivation.

Sleeplessness.

Wishing that all my teachers knew that "class clown" really meant dealing with trauma the only way I knew how.

Don't mind me, I'm outwardly introverting right now.

Remember that ADHD doesn't steal your intuition. Listen to it!

If I could "fix" my ADHD brain, I would have done it already. ADHD isn't a choice, an excuse, or a free pass. This is my life.

ADHD gives you an old soul with a forever-young brain.

The ADHD cycle: You need sound and stimulation just to be able to focus. Sound and stimulation cause you to be distracted. Repeat forever.

ADHD IS NOT A CHOICE OR

BAD PARENTING. KIDS WITH ADHD

WORK TWICE AS HARD AS THEIR

PEERS EVERYDAY

People worry about the next part of their life without realizing that they’re right in the middle of what They used to look forward to.
