is it that necessary to add adhd in front of every occurrence you have. if it is this relatable to the majority of users it obviously isn't a symptom of a condition only a minority have.
No no no you forget if they are impatient then it’s because of their ADHD and that means apparently it’s just oh too hard to relate to or empathize with other people…
Conversely, if they’re confused or behind it’s because of their ADHD and apparently it’s just oh too hard to understand why they feel no one can relate or empathize with them…
Apparently its helpless and there is nothing else to possibly consider… also we all need to hear about it non-stop.
It’s the nauseating equivalent of the joke “some people be like this… but other people be like that… amiright?” Next up “Non-Adhd women are shopping!!!! Lord knows those Non-adhd folks be shopping…!”
