"Because of who I am as a person"

Recommended by Brigid

an early moment in realizing I might want to pursue something a bit more serious with my now-boyfriend was his full acceptance of this reason (and acknowledgement as a shared reality)

Not trying to be defeatist but at 42 I know thyself and all the challenges of living an unmedicated life with ADHD. The simplest tasks can be so hard and I figure we live in the age of information so if someone isn’t willing to accept your neurodivergence, then that’s on them. But I love the “because of who I am as a person”. I say this frequently when I explain that if I don’t write it down, it didn’t happen because I have zero short term memory recall…

As a recovering people pleaser who is trying to stop overexplaining myself, saying "because of who I am as a person" as an explanation might just be the perfect solution. Highly recommended for all my ADHD and autistic hotties out there who sometimes ~simply cannot~ gather the executive function required to achieve a supposedly simple task, such as arriving on time. You're welcome <3
