Neurodiversity (ADHD)

Neurodiversity (ADHD)

I found out my diagnosis after most of my life and career had already happened, by accident. Suddenly, I understood the 'why' and the 'how'. Before, I had thought I was strange; what was wrong with me? Why do I get so obsessed with the rabbit hole I am running down? How can I hop from topic to topic while maintaining a breakneck speed, while others lose their way? Now I know it's my superpower to be everything all at once.
