jokes aside though im new to the sub and barely discussing this with my psychologist she said theres a chance that i have adhd but still working on the diagnostic  when i started talking to a few friends about it their innocent reaction was oh yeah i think i might have it too dont we all have a little adhd and isnt it just that you dont set out proper goals the last one followed by a bunch of advice as stay motivated push yourself more etc  although i know they mean good it felt extremely frustrating because in one hand they are reducing the struggles of my adhd to problem focusing at college and lazy unmotivated and on the other hand they think im making a big deal about it because of the idea that we are all a little distracted sometimes  i tried to explain in depth about emotional desregulation and long term consecuenses of untreated adhd like the extreme socialgeneralized anxiety and impostor syndrome and how i been trying so hard to be functional for as long as i can remember but at the end i got an dont be so bummed out about life you have great qualities you are exaggerating your problems and ended up looking like a neurotic  after that i decided to keep it to myself specially with my neurotypical friends my boyfriend also tries to disqualify my suspicion since i told him even my psychologist isnt too sure about adhd being persistent in adulthood as she told me is probable that i had it as a child but isnt sure i could still have it even though i have all of the symptoms and they express in every aspect of my life but whatever  sorry for the rant i really needed to vent about this one
